Profile
My research involves the use of different methods to evaluate the impacts of macroalgae invasive species on benthic biogeochemestry; Including porewater nutrients and trace metals, organic carbon storage and C/N ratios.
The methods I have used include:
- Elemental CHN
- Porewater nutirents
- C, N, H isotopic composition of algae and sediment
- CuO oxidation products
- Chromatoraphy
- GIS to analyse spatial macroalgae cover
Research interests
Coastal eutrophication, sediment biogeochemestry, organic geochemestry, organic carbon storage, estuaries, macroalgae
