Dave is Professor of Sustainable Land Use systems, with research interests in optimising nutrient use efficiencies in livestock and cropping systems, and minimising impacts of farming practices on water, air and soil. 

Natalie is a fisheries scientist whose research focuses on assessment and management of small scale and data poor fisheries, including evaluation of interventions within fisheries management. 

Jan Hiddink is a marine ecologist who focuses on gaining a quantitative understanding of the effect of disturbance (such as exploitation and climate change) on the biodiversity and functioning of marine benthic communities and how such effects can be mitigated. 

Davey is Professor of Environmental Science and Public Health. His research focuses on understanding below-ground processes with specific focus on nutrients and human pathogen behaviour in water-food-soil-plant-microbial systems.  

Lewis Le Vay is director of the Centre for Applied Marine Science and has expertise in sustainable aquaculture in both tropical and temperate systems. 

Dr Winnie Courtene-Jones is a global change biologist and plastic pollution expert whose research focuses on how anthropogenic stressors affect organisms and the environment.

Karina is a Lecturer in soil science whose research focuses on the quantification and mitigation of greenhouse gases from agriculture. Her research focuses on the spatial and temporal variability in nitrous oxide emissions in lowland and upland grazing systems.

Charlie has worked within the sustainable fisheries team on seeking to improve understanding of the crustacean populations in Wales, both present and past, in aims to feed into fisheries management plans. Charlie is also researching for her PhD, investigating the reproductive potential of European Lobster in the face of climate change to support robust management of stocks. 

Martine is a Research Technician and PhD student with research interests in assessing the effect, fate, and legacy of agricultural mulch film use on the agroecosystem. She contributes to the GCRF-funded AgriPlastics project.

Emily is a Post-doctoral Researcher in Environmental Science whose a research interests include soil biogeochemistry, grassland and livestock productivity, and greenhouse gas emissions. She has contributed to the SARIC-funded Multi-species ley project.

Rob is a Post-doctoral Researcher in Soil Science whose research focuses on soil carbon dynamics, particularly small organic molecule cycling and biological function. He contributes to the Biochar Greenhouse Gas Removal Demonstration project.

Jeewani is a Post-doctoral Researcher in Biogeochemistry whose research interests are in the biogeochemistry of soils. She is working on the Peatlands Greenhouse Gas Removal Demonstrator project.

Emer has been involved with a variety of fisheries related projects at È«Ãñ²ÊƱ, spanning potting impact research and social sciences and is currently working on the fisheries and aquaculture blue-growth initiative, Môr Ni Gwynedd, working to identify barriers to sector growth, and using a co-designed approach to generate solutions. .

Emily works with small-scale crustacean fishers primarily in Wales for the Filling in the Gap Crustacean FISP. Her research seeks to understand the landings composition of crustacean fisheries, and the relationship between crustacean size with environmental variables to feed into fisheries management plans.  

Jack is a marine ecologist with specific expertise in fisheries and hydroacoustics and he is currently working on the Welsh Scallop stock assessment for the Welsh Government. 

Laura is a marine ecologist seeking to identify how the natural variability of ecosystems interacts with human activities to determine ecosystem state, to better inform the context specific and spatially explicit application of assessments for fisheries management.

Rhianna Parry is committed to advancing conservation, education, and ocean literacy efforts, particularly focusing on the restoration of the native oyster population in Welsh waters through the Wild Oysters #NNF2 project. At Môr Ni Gwynedd, Rhi she also works to support the fisheries, aquaculture, and seafood sectors within Gwynedd, aiming to enhance livelihoods and create upskilling opportunities through sustainable blue growth initiatives.  

Tim is  investigating potential benthic impacts from crab and lobster pot fishing.  Tim has led a range of collaborative research projects working with marine sector industry partners and stakeholders. 

Tim’s research, in collaboration with the fishing industry, has focused on how fishing on UK shelf seas interacts with the animals and carbon associated with seabed. This has been through using existing data, but also conducting new experimental and data collection work at sea. 

Professor Julia Jones is a conservation scientist with particular expertise in evaluating the impact of conservation interventions.

Simon studies biodiversity across diverse biomes and assesses linkages to ecosystem function, environmental and human health.

Farnon is an entomologist specialising in community ecology, with particular interests in the patterns and processes structuring natural and modified ecosystems. Farnon's work combines theoretical ecology with experiments to understand how the evolutionary relationships of tropical arthropods influence their ecological interactions. Farnon's ultimate goal is to develop theoretical frameworks that can be used to conserve tropical biodiversity by informing sustainable management practices.

Perrine is a postdoctoral researcher in ecotoxicology, focusing on the behaviour, fate, and transport of microplastics within and between terrestrial and atmospheric ecosystems

Charlie is a fisheries researcher evaluating the biological processes of European Lobster in a changing climate to assist in stock assessment models and management approaches.

Ffion is a PhD researcher assessing the impact of enhancing the circularity of farming systems on GHG mitigation and profitability, and exploring the barriers and opportunities for adoption.
