Recent research interests are related to:

  • Integrated Coastal Zone Management – ICZM development in relation to Integrated Water Resources Management – IWRM and Ecohydrological tools development for the observation, assessment, mitigation and adaptation of marine ecosystems to anthropogenic and climate change driven impacts.
  • Environmental Sustainability: Innovation by integrating social, economic and environmental research to attain resource sustainability. Implementation of Consistency, Efficiency and Sufficiency approaches to resource use, reuse and recycling.
  • Environmental Impact Assessment: identification of disturbance sources; impacts evaluation; mitigation measures and quantification of residual impact.
  • Ecology and climate change driven impacts of early life stages of marine vertebrates and invertebrates (vital rates assessment for Individual Based Model IBM development)
  • Impacts of ocean acidification on calcifying marine organisms, coastal biodiversity and fisheries.
  • Marine biotechnology (renewable energy for green feedstock: micro-algae).
