Aquatic ecosystems research programme • Aquatic biodiversity and ecosystems dynamics • Global change impacts on aquatic systems • Atmosphere / water /sediment / soil interactions
Research interests and expertise • Plankton competition rates and other biological processes • Fate of organic compounds in water / sediment / soils • Mechanistic studies on the atmosphere - land - water / pelagic - benthic / sediment - water interfaces • Upscaling to ecosystem level ; integration of models • Modelling of the spatio-temporal water cycle • Risk assessment and forecasting / management implications • E-science (distributed databases and computing, GIS modelling)
