An EconoTimes perspective

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Aquatic Ecology, University of Exeter

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Aquatic Ecology, University of Exeter I am an aquatic ecologist interested in understanding the ecological effects of global change and other stressors, and their interaction, on aquatic ecosystems. I use a combination of field research, mesocosms and controlled experiments to test how communities respond to stressors. I am particularly interested in plankton communities. At the University of Exeter I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow on the NERC grant QUAMTUM, where I aim to quantify livestock impacts on freshwaters. Previously, I have worked at the University of Oxford investigating the effects of sewage pollution, warming, chemicals (e.g., pyrene and microplastics) on freshwater and marine communities.
