研究领域

Research previously specialized in environmental drivers of change including invasive species, nitrogen deposition and grazing impacts. Now working on a number of citizen science projects in particular OPAL (Open Air Laboratories) which is a UK-wide citizen science initiative that allows everyone to get hands-on with nature, whatever their age, background or level of ability. Passion is engaging people in the environment all around them whether that is looking at bumblebees www.abdn.ac.uk/research/beewatch or recording non-native species www.opalexplorenature.org/nzflatworm
