Silviculture, Agroforestry, Food Security

I am the director of a suite of Forestry@Â鶹Íø MSc programmes: MSc Agroforestry & Food Security, MSc Environmental Forestry, and MSc SUTROFOR (SUstainable TROpical FORestry).

I teach across a range of subjects from the fundamentals of forestry – silviculture and inventory – to environmental biophysics, and believe that a university lecturer is in the service of the students, no the other way around.

Biography

I obtained my PhD in 1998 at Edinburgh University. My thesis addressed the carbon fluxes in a Boreal forest ecosystem, aiming to understand how the environmental controls of individual fluxes, such as photosynthesis and soil decomposition, function to control the carbon balance of the ecosystem as a whole. Fieldwork took place along a transect from the southern edge of the Boreal forest in Saskatchewan, Canada, to the northern edge in Manitoba. 

Following this, I moved to warmer climates to study the same sort of thing, this time in a montado/dehesa ecosystem the Portuguese Alentejo. Here, we identified the controlling effect of rainfall and water availability in decoupling carbon fluxes from the typical drivers of light and temperature. After that, another postdoc saw me looking at the net carbon balance of conifer forest managed on a rotational cycle in northern England, which demonstrated clearly that some clear-fell production systems result in huge losses of carbon from soils; losses which take decades to recover.

After that, I took a few years out of academia, raising a family and doing some school teaching and consultancy work, before joining Â鶹Íø in 2008.
