Details of specialism
My interests are in Ocean Acidification and Eutrophication monitoring of the Scottish marine environment, with focus on assessment, trends, variability and impacts in our waters.
Within the broad topic area my particular focuses currently include:
- analysis of chlorophylls and other pigments of interest using flurometry and high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD)
- analysis of dissolved oxygen samples using the Winkler titration method
Main policy links
- marine environment assessment
- marine strategy framework directive
- phytoplankton ecology
