I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Marine Spatial Ecology Applications (MSEA) Lab, focusing on tropical marine ecology, management, and conservation. I employ statistical methods, GIS, and remote sensing technologies to support this research, with a primary geographic focus on the Western Indian Ocean (WIO) region. My current work is concentrated on two key areas:
• Blue Carbon Ecosystems: Mapping and analysing seagrass habitats to support climate change mitigation efforts by contributing to policy development and enhancing nationally determined contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement.
• Coral Reef Ecology: Investigating how reef communities change in response to disturbances, with an emphasis on ecosystem processes and functioning in the context of coral reef resilience.
