Research Interests:
Macroecological Patterns of Spatially Fluctuating Populations.
My PhD research involves modelling spatio-temporal dynamics of the ways in which geographic ranges shift in position and size with declining and expanding populations as well as examining the evidence for how climate change and other anthropogenic factors may affect species ranges.
This work has implications in a number of conservation science areas such as understanding trajectories to extinction, dynamics of expansion of invasive species and efficacy of different monitoring strategies.
This work is funded by the Cambridge Trusts and is supervised by Nick Isaac, Kate Jones
(IOZ) and Michael Brooke (UCam).
