研究领域

My primary research interest is in the macroecology of marine ecosystems. In particular, I am interested in how and why marine biodiversity is unevenly distributed in space and time. This interest has led me into the realm of biodiversity informatics - using large databases of different facets of marine diversity in order to synthesise the state of knowledge of the world's oceans. My research is currently focused on three major areas: Global patterns and trends in marine biodiversity - interrogating, linking, and extracting trends from major biodiversity databases using novel statistical methods Comparative analysis of marine and terrestrial ecosystems - to what extent does ecological theory generalise across realms? Dynamics of UK marine systems - integrating data and models to understand the provision of ecosystem services from UK seas
