Her research aims to understand how animals use vibrations through materials as an information source, studying diverse animals from spiders to elephants. She obtained a BA in Biological Sciences before completing a PGCE teaching qualification. She then started her DPhil studies in Zoology within the Oxford Silk Group and Engineering Science Department at the University of Oxford. Her thesis focussed on how silk materials transmit vibrations and how this linked to their biological function. She has held a Career Development & Access Fellowship at Jesus College, Oxford and a Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 Research Fellowship (Universities of Bristol & Oxford).Summary of talk:Remote monitoring is becoming increasingly important within conservation. We need to able to assess the movements and behaviours of animals in a non-invasive way to inform policies for how to protect them in their natural environment. Seismic monitoring has potential in this area, especially with large megafauna such as elephants or giraffes that generate seismic waves with their footfalls. Furthermore, loud and low frequency vocalisations of wildlife can be detected with seismic sensors, where elephants are thought to communicate with each other using ground-based vibrations. This talk will introduce our research aiming to assess whether seismic sensors can be utilised for wildlife monitoring, focussing on both elephant rumble vocalisations and footfalls.
