Dr Alison Brown

I am a Research Fellow in Digital Water within the Biological and Environmental Sciences at the University of Stirling with my background in both aquatic Biogeochemist and Physical Oceanographer. I have been specialising in greenhouse gases dynamics in human impacted rivers and estuaries, identifying ‘hotspots’ and their drivers and have recently completed : a source-to-sea study of the Clyde river and estuary. I am also interested to reduce river and estuary pollution linked to urban and legacy industry and have been working on pollution linked to mine waters and other urban and legacy industry impacts . Previous to this I focused on metocean and ice engineering for both design and operations. Design aspects including the impact of climate change on offshore fixed and floating structures, pipelines and other installations and response-based design including the response of floating structures to rapidly changing met ocean conditions including squalls. Operational aspects included deep-water metocean data collection and metocean forecasting. I am a Chartered Scientist, Chartered Marine Scientist and Fellow of the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology.
