Expertise

I work on sustainable use and planning of marine areas, geospatial analysis and environmental assessment. I use GIS methods together with satellite, monitoring and modelling data to support spatial planning, suitability assessments and the evaluation of environmental impacts. My research supports the coordination of different uses of marine areas and evidence-based decision-making. Aquaculture and its spatial planning are among the key application areas of my work.
