   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."
