The aim of this studentship is to conduct research that draws together traits-based information, with habitat mapping approaches, and management scenario modelling, to inform development of natural capital approaches to non-coastal marine environmental management. In this project the student will conduct research to answer the following four questions:What benthic marine organism traits are linked to ecosystem services and organism responses to human induced pressures?Which benthic assemblages (biotopes) contribute most to functional diversity and ecosystem services, and what are their respective vulnerabilities to human induced pressures.How is functional diversity, ecosystem services and species vulnerability spatially distributed throughout UK offshore waters?How do UK offshore benthic ecosystems respond to management decisions and what are the societal implications in terms of risk to ecosystem services?

该奖学金的目的是进行研究，将基于特征的信息与生境制图方法和管理情景建模结合起来，为非沿海海洋环境管理的自然资本方法的发展提供信息。在这个项目中，学生将进行研究，以回答以下四个问题：什么样的底栖海洋生物特征与生态系统服务和生物体对人类引起的压力的反应？哪些底栖生物群落（群落生境）对功能多样性和生态系统服务贡献最大，它们各自对人为压力的脆弱性是什么？英国近海沃茨的功能多样性、生态系统服务和物种脆弱性在空间上是如何分布的？英国近海底栖生态系统如何响应管理决策，以及在生态系统服务风险方面的社会影响是什么？
