In a new podcast, Dr Ian Hendy talks about his research that will greatly improve the vibrant wildlife, the environment and benefit communities local to the Solent.
Dr Hendy, Senior Teaching Fellow in the School of Biological Sciences, is involved in a number of exciting marine conversation projects on the South Coast of England including a re-wilding project that aims to create a safe habitat for one of the UK’s native seahorse species, the protected Short Snouted Seahorse and a Sir David Attenborough-backed campaign to restore a vast underwater kelp forest off the West Sussex coast.
