Personal profile

Research overview

I am studying the movement ecology of bottlenose dolphins, applying a spatio-temporal networks approach, working in partnership with Morigenos, the Slovenian marine mammal society.

The project is split into three parts, studying i) spatial structure in dolphin movement using origin-destination (OD) networks, ii) integrating analysis of temporal structure in OD networks, iii) linking spatiotemporal dynamics in dolphin movement to habitat properties.
