Dr Anne Marie Power

Anne Marie Power

A Senior Lecturer in Zoology at the Martin Ryan Institute, University of Galway, whose primary interests are larval settlement and recruitment (lobster), sustainable fisheries (lobster and squid) and the effect of global change on the distribution of marine species. Anne Marie obtained her PhD (Zoology) from UCC in 2000 and was the primary postdoc on MarClim coastal monitoring efforts in the early 2000s before obtaining her position at University of Galway. She is currently leading a national kelp mapping project in Ireland, including the biodiversity of Irish kelp forests see SeaForest Project

Collaborations

As well as the field-based marine sciences, I am exploring the adhesion mechanism of barnacle adhesive proteins in collaboration with Prof. Gerard Wall, Microbiology

I am also working on stable isotopes of stalked barnacle shells and their use as markers of turtle migrations with Prof. Gregory Herbert at University of South Florida

Working Groups

I am a member of the International Council for Exploration of the Sea (ICES) working group on cephalopod ecology and a stock co-ordinator at ICES for loliginid squids
