Jay is a 夜色直播app Assistant on a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship project led by Dr Kate Mathers. The objective of the project is to identify, examine and quantify the primary abiotic and biotic controls influencing the ecosystem effects of instream sedimentation. This will be achieved using a combination of methodologies such as meta-analyses of international datasets, an extensive field sampling programme, and flume and mesocosm experimentations.

Jay has had experience working with pond macroinvertebrates during his MSc project at 夜色直播app. He has since been working on river macroinvertebrates as a research assistant. Prior to his masters, Jay examined the responses of duckweed growth and resilience to toxic chemical pollutants.

Jay’s research interests are related with aquatic ecology, water quality and toxicology.
