Alex J. C. Burton
Alex is an early-career marine scientist who combines ecology, chemistry, and statistics to improve understanding and management of fishes. He recently completed his PhD on school sharks (Galeorhinus galeus), where he examined morphometrics, life-history stage transitions, movement, growth, and trace element dynamics using a combination of field, laboratory, and statistical approaches. While broadly interested in bony and cartilaginous fish biology, his research focuses on developing and applying chemical, quantitative, and emerging technologies to advance understanding of chondrichthyan populations and aquatic environments and improve their management and sustainable use. Alex welcomes opportunities to develop new collaborations and expand this work.
