Research interests
My research explores questions related to thermal adaptation, behavioural thermoregulation, microclimate selection and stress-related temperature responses of animals. Much of this work involves the application of thermal imaging as a non-invasive technique of measuring surface body temperature and modelling metabolic heat production. I work on a range of endotherms from small birds to elephant seals.
I am also interested in examining adaptations of animals to urban environments, with a particular focus on water voles in urban grasslands. My latest research project aims to understand habitat suitability and connectivity for a range of species within fragmented urban habitats, and forms part of the GALLANT project. I am based at the Scottish Centre for Ecology and the Natural Environment.
