Teaches – Spatial Analysis of Ecological Data Using R (SPAE)
Jana is a research fellow and lecturer within the Institute of Biodiversity Animal Health and Comparative Medicine at the University of Glasgow. Her research is in the area of spatial and foraging ecology of marine top predators. Her work focuses on sea birds and pinnipeds and has published numerous manuscripts on Galapagos sea lions. Jana uses various methods to gather quantitative data, such as GPS tracking and stable isotope analysis, to gain a better understanding of ecology with particular emphasis on juvenile/adolescent life stages utilising a strong spatial component. The aim of her research is to develop an understanding of how foraging and breeding habitat preferences of individuals influence population-level processes that are relevant for conservation management.
