 abstract: "Shelley\u2019s research interests stem from an overarching goal of understanding\
   \ how natural and human-induced environmental change influence the structure and\
   \ function of aquatic food webs. Her research utilizes a combination of laboratory\
   \ experiments, field data collection, and modeling to quantify and better understand\
   \ the food web processes that may pose limitations to the growth and production\
   \ of native fishes in a variety of habitats. Current research projects use these\
   \ methods to understand the impacts of invasive fish species to growth and production\
   \ of native salmonids and evaluate food web limitations to the feasibility of\
   \ introducing anadromous salmonids above high-head dams. Shelley has previously\
   \ participated in research characterizing food web impacts following dam removal\
   \ in the Elwha River, synthesizing science products and cost estimates for dam\
   \ removals worldwide for the U.S. Geological Survey Dam Removal Science Database,\
   \ and improving our understanding of barotrauma in fish associated with turbine\
   \ passage at hydropower dams."
