Job title:

Chair in Applied Ecology

Biography:

Prof Wood has teaching and research expertise that cuts across the broad subject of environmental management, from corporate environmental management to the assessment and management of pollution and the sustainable management of natural resources, especially ecosystems and their services. His research is positioned at the science-policy interface and he works extensively on the development of decision making tools for industry, regulators and policy makers. Prior to becoming a academic, he worked for 3 years as an Environmental Consultant and then for 7 years as an Environmental Scientist, so his international research career has evolved from an applied science base. Prof Wood draws on this broad expertise to deliver research-led environmental management teaching, from Foundation levmore...

Qualifications:

Prof Wood has a B.Sc. (Hons) in Zoology, an M.Sc. in Pollution and Environmental Control and a Ph.D. in Environmental Science. His Ph.D. research was on the development of models to support environmental management decision-making for the nuclear sector.
