MSc Applied Ecology and Conservation
Research
Fisheries, Aquaculture
Having researched marine mammal distributions in relation to sea surface temperature as a proxy for climate change for my BSc dissertation, I moved to the University of East Anglia to continue my studies in MSc Applied Ecology and Conservation. Whilst studying, I developed an interest in fisheries bycatch and, working with the Centre for Environment, Fisheries, and Aquaculture Science (Cefas), my MSc thesis investigated shark interactions with fisheries around the UK. This has formed the basis of my PhD work in marine ecology which, funded by the Fisheries Society of the British Isles, will take these investigations into shark bycatch further through estimating population removal through dead discards and incorporating my earlier studies in climate change before extending the work into British Overseas Territories.
