Biography

I am an upland ecologist based at the SRUC Hill & Mountain Research Centre. My main research interests are:

• The impact of grazing on vegetation composition and structure.
• The impact on biodiversity of declining livestock numbers in the hills and uplands.
• Upland land-use management scenarios and their impacts on biodiversity and greenhouse gas emissions.
• Grazing management on upland designated sites.
• Ecosystem services in the hills and uplands.
• The grazing behaviour of sheep and cattle on upland vegetation.
• Sensor technology and Low Power Wide Area Networks.
• Agroforestry and farm woodlands.
