Rate My Professor Grant Duffy

Duffy has authored over 57 peer-reviewed publications, accumulating more than 1,900 citations. His influential works address critical ecological challenges, including "Emerging long-term trends and interdecadal cycles in Antarctic polynyas" (PNAS, 2024), which identified expanding ice-free coastal areas and interdecadal cycles, receiving extensive media coverage; "Kelp holdfast microclimates buffer invertebrate inhabitants from extreme temperatures" (2024); "Sensitivity of insectivorous bat foraging guilds to urbanization and implications for sustainable development" (2024); "Ice-free area expansion compounds the non-native species threat to Antarctic terrestrial biodiversity" (2019); "Barriers to globally invasive species are weakening across the Antarctic" (2017); "Microclimate-based macrophysiology: Implications for insects in a warming world" (2015); and "Thermal physiology and urbanization: Perspectives on exit, entry and transformation rules" (2015). These contributions advance understanding of physiological limits, invasion risks, urban resilience, and polar ecosystem dynamics, informing conservation and policy.
