Biography and research interests
Throughout my career I have participated in various projects focusing on invasive species, benthic ecology, fisheries management and ecosystem services. With my current research, I am aiming to value Australia’s coastal ecosystems in relation to fish production by using ecological, social as well as economic measures. During my PhD, I will systematically gather and synthesize existing fisheries datasets to summarise interactions between fish and coastal ecosystems. Obtained results will be then combined with socio-economic analysis to advocate ecosystem-based decision making.
