I'm a Professor in Physical Oceanography at the School of Ocean Sciences. I gained my Degree in Mathematics and Physical Oceanography (2003) and Ph.D on internal tides (2008) from Bangor University. I'm interested in a wide range of human and biological impacts of coastal dynamics and change, with applications to coastal hazards (coastal flooding, water quality degradation, pollution and public health risk), coastal morphology, marine population dynamics and connectivity, and marine renewable energy resource and impact studies.

My research generally involves developing hydrodynamic models that simulate coastal processes, such as realistic representations of the past, future climate change impact studies, or hypothetical scenarios such as simulating flood mitigation, the impact of tidal-stream turbines on sediment transport, or marine population spread via larval dispersal. I'm especially interested in estuaries because of the multiple complex estuarine processes that affect communities and wildlife - and as there is still much to discover, with current research focussing on improving our understanding of compound flooding and public exposure to water-borne pathogens. I enjoy working with a wide range of scientists across different disciplines, with climate modellers to ensure their projections are relevant for coastal impact, and with coastal policy makers so that our research has real world outcomes.

• BU-IIA Funded Project: Mapping Social Inequality in Flooding

  Future flood risk is unlikely to be equal across society because flood-vulnerability (hence economic loss) is linked to socio-economic factors. To protect against flooding, insurance is used alongside state-led protection measures (e.g. sea walls, culverts, etc). Planning laws are also used to reduce exposure by restricting development in high flood risk areas (zone C available here); however, the need for housing (e.g. government pledges for 300,000 new homes per year) may constrain where sustainable developments can occur (e.g. when including community needs/services, as well as access to mortgages and insurance).

  We hypothesize exposure to the changing flood risk will not be equal across society, given changing patterns of flood risk, demographics and flood protection (e.g. access to mortgages and insurance).

  We will show how flood risk will impact social demographics and recreation demographics, demonstrating the hidden value of big data within digital environmental themes. We will establish a method to harvest publicly available data, mapping land use (e.g. recreation) and value (house prices, tourism) to monitor value, and values, communities have with the environment. We aim to establish methods to harvest online-data to map spatio-temporal changes in how we use, and value, land as climate change impacts such spaces - using outputs from our NERC future climate change driven flooding project "SEARCH" and engagement with stakeholders (e.g. reinsurance and Environment Agency).
