Biography
Aidan is a final year PhD candidate based at King's College London and the Natural History Museum London, funded by the London NERC DTP. His project utilises open-access remote sensing and climate products to investigate hydrological changes across the East African Rift System, their environmental drivers, and the impacts of changes on water quality and biodiversity.
Research
Thesis title: 'The drivers and impacts of water resource changes across the East African Rift System'.
Aidan uses satellite Earth observation, GIS, biodiversity count data, and statistical modelling to explore regional-scale changes in lake ecosystems across decadal time scales.
PhD supervision
- Principal supervisor: Emma Tebbs
- Secondary supervisor: Michael Chadwick
