Rhagolwg
I am the Dean of College of Natural Sciences and a Professor in the School of Ocean Sciences, Bangor University. I completed my BSc (in Petroleum Geology) and PhD (on the sedimentology of modern beach and estuarine sediments of Carmarthen Bay, SW Wales) at Imperial College, University of London. I was then a postdoctoral fellow at the Wellcome Marine Laboratory, University of Leeds (1970-3), a research assistant in the Department of Oceanography, University of Southampton (1973-4), and a Royal Society Research Fellow at University College Galway, Ireland and Université de Perpignan, France (1974-6). I took up my post here in 1977.

Research Interests
My research interests encompass the sedimentary processes of continental margins from estuaries to continental slopes. My work has focussed on measuring lateral and vertical fluxes of sedimentary material (e.g. rate of infilling of estuarine sediments, settling flux of suspended matter on the shelf, cross-margin flux of suspended matter) and their relation to physical forcing (e.g. turbulence, resuspension, advection). These processes require an interdisciplinary approach and I am especially interested in biota-sediment interactions and their control of benthic-pelagic coupling: influence of micro- and macro-fauna on seabed properties and erosion rate, mediation of particle aggregation and settling flux by plankton. I also have an interest in sedimentary processes in the tropical lagoons of Mauritius. All of these studies have required the design and/or application of novel acoustic and optical technologies for remotely sensing sediment properties.

SEACAMS2 project supports developing economic opportunities in Low Carbon, Energy and Environment through specialisation in commercial application of research and innovation in marine renewable energy (MRE), climate change resilience and resource efficiency in Wales. The £17m project, a partnership between Bangor University and Swansea University, is part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund and focuses on the convergence region of Wales. The MRE industry has been quick to identify Wales' significant potential marine energy resource: along the Welsh coast are regions with high tidal ranges (for tidal lagoons), fast tidal currents (for tidal stream energy), and waters exposed to considerable wave action (for wave energy devices). A multi-disciplinary team of marine scientists on the SEACAMS2 project are working with MRE enterprises in Wales, conducting collaborative Research, Development & Innovation (RD&I) initiatives. As part of this, new data are also being gathered from a system of comprehensive coastal observatories - instrumented benthic landers and moored platforms - deployed in coastal regions identified as potential sites for MRE developments. Along with the dedicated SEACAMS2 research staff and world leading academics at the School of Ocean Sciences, Bangor University, the project also has access to research platforms such as the RV Prince Madog and small boat fleet. Available for use in Marine Centre Wales are conference facilities, meeting rooms, a lecture theatre, laboratories and aquaria. iMarDis (Integrated Marine Data and Information Systems) is a new data and knowledge infrastructure that is being set up at the core of SEACAMS2, to fully capitalise on the project outputs, integrate its data systems, and provide useful data products for industry users.
