Mae fy ngwaith ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar y ffordd y mae rhyngweithio rhywogaethau ac amrywioldeb amgylcheddol stocastig yn cyfuno i ddylanwadu ar wahanol fathau o sefydlogrwydd ecolegol a deinamig rhywogaethau ymledol. Rwy’n cyfuno dulliau modelu dadansoddol, efelychiad ac ystadegol i ymchwilio i’r ffordd y mae mathau gwahanol o amrywiadau amgylcheddol (gofodol a/neu dymhorol) yn llywio newidiadau mewn poblogaethau, gyda’r nod bob amser o gyfuno damcaniaethau bioleg poblogaethau â gwaith empirig lle bynnag y bo’n bosibl, ar draws amrywiaeth o systemau astudio.

Mae prosiectau ymchwil diweddar a pharhaus yn cynnwys: (i) archwilio dynameg eco-esblygol ac ymatebion i amrywiadau amgylcheddol mewn poblogaethau yn ôl strwythur cyfnodau; (ii) datblygu ein dealltwriaeth o rywogaethau ymledol a’u rheolaeth; (iii) integreiddio gwydnwch ecosystemau i waith cynllunio arfordirol er mwyn sicrhau parhad amddiffynfeydd naturiol rhag llifogydd a gwasanaethau ecosystem gwlyptiroedd; (iv) archwilio effeithiau amrywiadau amgylcheddol mewn modelau esblygol syml.

BIO261 Population and Community Ecology

This module will introduce students to concepts and basic analytical tools to understand and predict the growth or decline of animal, plant and other populations for: individual species; interacting, multispecies (e.g., predator-prey) communities; and spatial networks connected by dispersal. Students will become familiar with 5 major themes related to ecological dynamics: population growth and density dependence, competition, consumer-resource interactions and spatial processes. Students will develop skills in conceptual thinking and data analysis, using and developing ecological models to predict how populations change over time and space, as well as report writing and presentation skills. Students will learn about how these tools are used in practical situations like conservation and invasive species management. The course will be structured with lectures introducing background information and core concepts being followed by corresponding PC lab sessions where students will gain experience of putting those concepts into practice. An additional workshop session will prepare students for group presentations dealing with classical concepts in population ecology.
BIOM25B Science Skills and Research Methods

This intensive lecture and practical based module covers science skills for students wishing to pursue postgraduate studies, including MSc, MRes, MPhil and PhD degrees. It will teach students how to make good use of library and internet resources (including Web of Science, Canvas and Dryad), to design and analyse their experiments, and to make presentations of their data during conferences and symposia. It will provide PG students in the Department of Biosciences (and other Departments in the Faculty of Science and Engineering) with the research and analytical skills necessary to carry out their research projects. It will teach them how to formulate and test scientific hypotheses, and how to generate and analyse scientific results using a variety of research methods. Lecture topics include Reporting and Presentation skills, Numerical skills and Data Analysis and Scientific Writing. The lectures are taught during the first part of the Semester. The module is examined through a combination of Continuous Assessment (90%) and an online examination in the form of a MCQ test (10%). Basic reading: Whitlock, M. and Schluter, D. (2014) The Analysis of Biological Data (Roberts & Co.). Crawley, M.J. (2005) Statistics: An Introduction Using R (Wiley). Original research papers given in reading list and found through self-directed learning.
