(he/him)
I have a background in Physical Geography, focusing on Geomatics and Satellite Remote Sensing. After graduating my MSc, I worked at the Swedish Board of Agriculture with developing their system for monitoring agricultural activity. Before starting my PhD, I worked as a Research Assistant in Spatial Statistics in Taiwan. In addition to my interest in geosciences I am passionate about the interactions between nature and society. This motivates my enthusiasm for interdisciplinary research, which I am currently pursuing in my PhD.
The marine rewilding effect: Building a cost-effective framework for measuring Marine Net Gain
University of Glasgow with Dr Laurence De Clippele
PhD aim:
To build a cost-effective framework for measuring marine rewilding using geospatial, bioacoustic and societal indicators.
PhD objectives:
- Develop Remote Sensing approaches to detect changes related to restored species or habitats as well as their ecosystem services and functions;
- Build metrics using Machine Learning approaches and signal processing of underwater acoustics to automatically measure fish occurrence, habitat use, and photosynthesis from fish grunts and bubble-popping sounds;
- Assess economic impacts and cultural ecosystem services of restoration using Natural Language Processing, discourse analysis, and statistical analysis.
