March has been a highlight of this year, with a fieldwork campaign around Elephant Island, Antarctica. Despite extremely challenging weather conditions, we gathered data on the ecology of fin whales🐋at this foraging ground, that will help inform conservation management👩‬

I am thrilled to announce that I have joined Ryan Reisinger’s lab as a Research Fellow at the University of Southampton. Since September 2024, I study the interactions between baleen whales 🐋 and krill fisheries 🛥️ in the Western Antarctic Peninsula. Stay tuned for more information on our research!
