Report
Research interests
Andrew's research explores the interactions between the offshore renewable energy industry and the marine environment. Andrew is a marine ecologist pursuing a multi-faceted research approach to uncover mechanisms that underpin marine population responses to environmental changes created as the transition to decarbonise energy generation accelerates. This includes close partnership with the European Marine Energy Centre exploring the impacts of marine growth in the offshore renewable energy industry.
Research interests include, but are not limited to: rocky shores and wave energy; biofouling of artificial substratum; blue carbon habitats; fisheries and offshore energy platforms; phylogenetics and population connectivity; and, management of invasive species.
