Research Focus
My research focuses around the interactions between marine fauna and humans, where I make use of various modelling techniques to investigate these relationships. I have undertaken multiple research projects in this area including studies into bottlenose dolphins in Aberdeen harbour and seals depredating from fishing lines in County Mayo, Ireland.
My PhD thesis investigated the risk posed by tidal energy devices to marine life. This involved developing a collision risk model that can estimate this risk. This produced a highly flexible tool for use by those going through the licencing process for tidal energy device installation.
