Join us for Sixty Years of Rocky Shore Ecology, a fascinating journey through marine science with experimental ecologist Professor Stephen Hawkins. From his first limpet studies on the Isle of Man to pioneering work on climate change, biodiversity, and eco-engineering, Prof. Hawkins reflects on the evolving story of our coasts. As former Director of the Marine Biological Association, he shares insights into keystone grazers, shifting species, and the power of long-term research. With humour, history, and a deep love for rocky shores, this episode celebrates a lifetime uncovering the hidden dynamics of the intertidal world.
