Jamie Johnson PhD Student, Geography, University of Exeter
Address: Geography, College of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Exeter, Amory Building, Rennes Drive, Exeter, EX4 4RJ. UK. Email: [email protected]
My wider research interests concern the impacts of anthropogenic disturbance and environmental change on the health and functioning of ecosystems. Of particular interest is the use of palaeoecological and environmental proxy data for the interpretation and contextualisation of recent ecological and environmental change. My PhD research focusses on the development of palaeoecological records from turbid-zone coral reefs on the inner-shelf of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. This PhD studentship is part of a larger NERC funded research project, in collaboration with James Cook University (Australia) and the Natural History Museum (London). The main objectives of my work are to establish high resolution palaeoecological (based on benthic foraminifera and coral community assemblages) and sedimentary baseline records against which modern ecological and environmental changes can be assessed.
