Research Interest
Field of research is the biology and ecology of nearshore marine, estuarine and wetland environments and their faunas. Specifically he have undertaken research in: Community ecology of fish and benthic macroinvertebrates Associations between faunas and habitat types Relationship between faunas and environmental variables Assessing the health of estuaries using benthic macroinvertebrates Fish dietary studies Biogeography of fish faunas Impact of invasive species
