Biography
Natalie graduated from the University of Reading in 2007 with a BSc (Hons) in Human and Physical Geography. In 2009, she completed an MSc in Environmental Conservation Management. From that point and the following four years Natalie worked in the commercial sector where she developed extensive expertise in GIS and the application of spatial analysis techniques. Additionally, Natalie has experience working within inter-disciplinary teams and leading ecosystem service related projects demonstrating her GIS capabilities.
Research Interest
Natalie's work involves utilising hydrological tools in GIS to perform spatial analysis, produce mapped outputs for the Duress site catchments, and to perform vector and raster based analysis for the Duress land-use change scenarios work package. Through this work, she has demonstrated her ability in developing pragmatic spatial approaches (using a rule-base and GIS), to translate qualitative scenarios to highlight how land-cover change may occur within the Duress catchments.
