Dr.
Costa's interests are cellular and comparative physiology. He is interested in
the solute and water balance of aquatic animals, both vertebrate and
invertebrate. Dr. Costa is currently researching the accumulation of non-ionic
solutes (especially urea), osmoregulation in larval amphibians inhabiting saline
environments, and adaptations used by aquatic organisms to live in alkaline
environments.
