Current Research

 

My research explores the potential for solar parks to enhance pollinator biodiversity and boost pollination services to surrounding agricultural land.

 

Given their rapid expansion, the impacts of solar parks on biodiversity are relatively unknown. However, solar parks are often located in species-poor agricultural landscapes and if deployed and managed appropriately could support and enhance declining groups such as pollinators. I use a range of desk and field-based approaches to further understand this untapped conservation opportunity that solar parks could provide.
