Academic interests

I am a marine ecologist and biological oceanographer and I am particularly interested in the distribution and behaviour of pelagic organisms in relation to their biological and physical environment. While currently mainly using acoustics (echosounders) for describing the distribution and behaviour of mesopelagic animals at population to individual level, I also have a background in zooplankton imaging.
