Biography
An Advanced Research Fellow who models bioenergy crops and agricultural systems. Currently working on a UKRI perennial bioenergy crops demonstrator project with miscanthus, src willow and eddy covariance fluxes to determine the carbon balance after landuse change. Academic partners include University of Aberystwyth, Rothamsted and CEH.
I provide crop, energy and environmental predictions predictions and administer the development of the global MiscanFor model for bioenergy crop growth, environmental effects and energy production. I use ECOSSE and DayCent and other models to provide agricultural systems and environmental projections.
I have a wide experience in agri-modelling. Previously, I was an agri-environmental modeller in sustainable grassland and nutrient cycling working at Rothamsted Research for 9.5 years, and worked in Canadian agriculture for 8 years to model water resources and drought occurrence. I use agri-systems models to provide future scenarios under different management systems or climate changes.
