About Angela

I moved into teaching following 10 years as a postdoctoral researcher, having spent time in Florida and Plymouth. I am still very much involved in research, along with the supervision of PhD students, as well as teaching. As part of my teaching role, I am the Programme Lead for the two undergraduate environmental programmes, BSc Environmental Science and BSc Environmental Management and Sustainability and module lead for ENVS1002 (The Physical Environment).

Supervised Research Degrees

Tess Ashen (2022 - current). Developing novel optical-chemical measurements of iron. 

Isobel Turnbull (2019 - 2022). Investigating the bioavailability of iron to marine microbes.

Antony Birchill (2013 – 2017). Cycling of iron in the Celtic Sea.

Teaching

My teaching interests cover Environmental and Analytical Chemistry with a focus on inorganic water chemistry, in both the freshwater and marine environment. These feed into the following modules/areas:

  • The Physical Environment (ENVS1002; Stage 1, BSc Environmental Science / BSc Environmental Management and Sustainability)
  • Sustainability Science (ENVS1009; Stage 1, BSc Environmental Science / BSc Environmental Management and Sustainability)
  • Field and Research Skills / Environmental Data Management (ENV*2002; Stage 2, BSc Environmental Science / BSc Environmental Management and Sustainability)
  • Fieldwork and dissertations in Environmental Science (ENVS3001; Stage 4)
  • Fieldwork and dissertations as part of MSc Environmental Consultancy and MSc Sustainable Environmental Management and MSc Applied Marine Science (within the School of Biological & Marines Sciences),
