Research Interests
I am currently investigating the best management strategy for O.edulis in Loch Ryan, this will be achieved by assessing the density of the oyster beds, fishing intensity and carrying out a stock survey. The population will also be monitored for its sex ratio and progression through the stages of gametogenesis, which will indicate how reproductive the population is. Within my MPhil I also hope to carry out experiments using spat collectors within the Loch.
