Carolyn Faithfull

Presentation

I am an aquatic ecologist whose specialty is in studying food web interactions in pelagic ecosystems. Much of my research has focussed on how multiple stressors affect energy transfer in food webs. I have also worked with surveying Gävleborgs marine environment in order to prioritise areas for building of marine protected areas. 

I am a researcher at SLU Aqua, Institute of coastal research, where I am a member of the Ecosystem Analysis unit. I will be working with concepts related to ecosystem based management and its application.
