Activities
Involved in research investigating the behaviour of tunas around anchored and drifting Fish Aggregating Devices (FADs), and the behavioural ecology of coastal sharks. Both studies involves the use of acoustic telemetry to determine residency times, synchronicity in departures/arrival, diel patterns in behaviour, home range and space use patterns. In addition, am involved in the monitoring of key indicator species through annual stock assessments.
