Personal profile
Overview
I am a PhD student in Physical Geography, supervised by Dr. Emma Shuttleworth, Dr. Jonny Riton, and Prof. Martin Evans. My research focuses on peatland restoration and its role in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. Given that peatlands are currently one of the most significant sources of greenhouse gases, I am particularly interested in exploring effective strategies to reduce emissions and improve ecosystem resilience.
My work combines field-based studies with controlled mesocosm experiments to better understand the dynamics of greenhouse gas fluxes under different restoration interventions. Through this integrated approach, I aim to provide insights into how restoration techniques influence carbon cycling and contribute to climate change mitigation.
Beyond my core research, I am passionate about interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange, and I am always eager to engage with researchers, policymakers, and practitioners working towards sustainable land management and climate goals.
