Happy to share our new publication online last month (& the first in my current role @ Swansea uni!!) - looking into variability in detection range & efficiency with acoustic telemetry, focusing on tidal effects link.springer.com/article/10.1...
Scientists have captured footage of a sleeper shark farther south than ever before, suggesting this Antarctic ocean is not shark-free
Really nice to have our #pollack paper out 🎣 full paper here! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
To support participation in the ISRA process for the African Atlantic region, we are organising an introductory webinar on 19 May 2026 from 9:00–10:30 (GMT).
🌊Our latest research suggests releasing pollack close to their catch depths can result in their survival rates increasing from 56% for surface-released fish to more than 80%!

The recreational fishery for pollack (Pollachius pollachius) in the northeast Atlantic is impacted by the species' high sensitivity to barotrauma. When captured at depth and brought to the surface, g...
First confirmed cases of High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza Virus (HPAIV) on Gough Island represent one of the most geographically isolated detections of HPAIV to date. But how did it get there?

Researcher interested in fish movement + acoustic telemetry
Currently at Swansea Uni
Excited to share I've been awarded the @thefsbi.bsky.social PITF Outgoing Fellowship this year! I'll share more about my project & the research I'll be doing nearer the time (it's several months away though I'm already prepping) but I will say it's a very very VERY cool project 😎🦈
