Huw Griffiths

Marine Biogeographer

Biography

I am a marine biogeographer with an interest in the Polar Regions. I completed a PhD in Southern Ocean marine biogeography with the British Antarctic Survey and Open University. I am an editor of the The SCAR Biogeographic Atlas of the Southern Ocean and the Co-chair and theme leader for Spatial Ecology of the SCAR (Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research) scientific research programme AntEco (State of the Antarctic Ecosystem). I am a member of the SCAR Expert Group on Antarctic Biodiversity Information, the international steering committee of ANTABIF (Antarctic Biodiversity Information Facility) and a SCAR Delegate to the governing board, Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). I am a member of the steering committee for the Marine Ecosystem Assessment for the Southern Ocean (MEASO). I have worked for the British Antarctic Survey since June 2000 and have participated in several expeditions to Antarctica investigating benthic biodiversity and biogeography.

I study large-scale biogeographic and ecological patterns in space and time; Using selected groups of animals to investigate trends in distribution in the Polar Regions; Utilising large biological and physical databases to understand key processes in the Antarctic, Arctic and neighbouring regions. I also study the potential effects of marine protected areas, climate change and plastic pollution on these unique ecosystems. Research gate

I am a passionate believer in science communication and making science more accessible to the public, policy makers and government. I regularly present our work to the media, schools, open days and special events and have written two plain language advice documents for the Antarctic Environments Portal on marine biodiversity and plastic pollution.
