Research highlights

 

VECTORS research is wide-ranging, the project aims to elucidate the drivers, pressures and vectors that cause change in marine life, the mechanisms by which they do so, the impacts that they have an ecosystem structures and functioning, and on the economics of associated marine sectors and society.

 

In this section of the website we will feature highlights from some recent VECTORS research and publications. The latest highlights are from Paolo Magni which focus on food web changes along a nearshore-offshore gradient and along the European Atlantic coast.

 

Please send any suggestions for further research highlights to Dawn Ashby, daas@pml.ac.uk.
