Another heads-up to locals about an upcoming event arranged by those lovely people from the Friends of Memorial Hall.
Further to the blurb in the poster, Huw's working biography as a marine biogeographer is available for reading on the British Antarctic Survey website (link below).
It makes interesting reading and includes links to polar-related projects, publications, blogs, etc. Below is an excerpt from his biography:
I am a marine biogeographer with an interest in the Polar Regions and completed a PhD in Southern Ocean marine biogeography with the British Antarctic Survey and Open University. I mostly study the animals that live at the bottom of the sea around Antarctica and the Arctic. I also study the potential effects of marine protected areas, climate change, human impacts and pollution on these unique ecosystems. I have worked for the British Antarctic Survey since the year 2000 and have participated in several expeditions to Antarctica and the Arctic , studying everything from the intertidal to the deep sea.
Looks like an interesting talk for natural history fans ... that's pretty much everyone :)
Please wrap up warm as it's now officially autumn ... brrr!
Enjoy, Steve
