Towards integrated land-sea management: mapping and modelling ecological connectivity in tropical coastal environments

Academic Profile

A recent graduate from the University of Oxford Biodiversity, Conservation and Management MSc, I have a deep interest in understanding the dynamics of complex social-ecological systems. In addition to marine ecology, I also have expertise in economics. In my current research, I study land-sea connectivity in tropical island systems using cutting-edge remote sensing technologies.
