Biography
He has a broad range of research students examining patterns of movement in sea turtles, climate change impacts for sea turtle nesting conditions and long-term changes in marine systems including studies on plankton, jellyfish and mega-vertebrates. Current students and research staff have field sites in the Caribbean, Indian Ocean, Mediterranean and Atlantic Islands (e.g. Cape Verde).
Research Interest
marine science (including behavioural, physiological and molecular ecology as well as biological oceanography) for a range of marine species including both vertebrates and invertebrates with a strong emphasis on the use of innovative marine technology and crossdisciplinary collaboration, for example with physical oceanographers, mathematicians and physicists.
