Corey Bradshaw

Associate Professor/Research Director of Marine Impacts

 

Corey Bradshaw

 

Areas of expertise:

I have a diverse, multidisciplinary and innovative research portfolio which has and continues to include topics ranging from the dynamics of populations, predicting the vulnerability of species to environmental change, optimal foraging theory, sustainability harvest & density reduction, disease dynamics and environmental drivers of population change, including climate change biology. Specific research foci include analytical and computer simulation modelling, quantitative behavioural ecology, foraging dynamics, impacts of tropical habitat modification on biodiversity, wildlife population management and sustainable harvest, evaluation of the minimum viable population size concept, examining the relative contribution of intrinsic (density regulation) factors on population trajectories and the ecology of invasive species.
