Role
I am currently working on the EU-funded FP7 project KnowSeas - Knowledge-based Sustainable Management for Europe's Seas. The aim of this project is to produce a comprehensive knowledge base and practical guidance for the application of the Ecosystem Approach to the sustainable development of Europe's regional seas. My work specifically involves modelling the complex links between ecosystem services, the functions that support them, and the impacts of anthrophogenic activities on the sustained delivery of these services.
