I am an active researcher at the intersection of oceanography, physiology, ecology, engineering, acoustics, signal processing, marine biology and biomechanics. I am interested in how organisms group together in spatially and temporally restricted patches, and how predators can exploit these patches.
Trained as an educator, I spent 6 years teaching high school math after 6 years guiding wilderness trips. My career-long commitment has been to the idea that high-quality education can be a gateway to success, and I have worked to increase educational opportunities and access for young people from all walks of life.

Currently a post-doctoral researcher at the Institute of Marine Sciences at UC Santa Cruz, Dr. Cade's research interests span nested spatial and temporal domains, from sensory systems to bottom-up and top-down ecosystem processes. He is currently working with Dr. Ari Friedlaender's lab to characterize how Antarctic minke whales, an intermediately sized Antarctic predator, utilize their icy habitats sympatrically with humpback whales, and he is interested in how those behaviors may have evolved. (It turns out they may be interested in him as well! ) (NMFS permit 23095)
