Emma Longden
Biography
I am a PhD student with the IAPETUS Doctoral Training Partnership. My research focuses on top predator movement ecology in relation to Southern Ocean currents; combining animal tracking data and ocean modelling. I work in the Ecosystems team at BAS, supervised by Norman Ratcliffe and Sally Thorpe, and the School of Biodiversity, One Health and Veterinary Medicine at the University of Glasgow, supervised by Jason Matthiopoulos and Juan Morales. I am also working in partnership with Tiago Silva at Cefas (Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science).
