By studying the shape of a coast and historical changes that have occurred, he is able to develop risk-aligned management solutions for complex problems.??
Drawing on his strong analytical skills, Chris is proficient in mathematical modelling techniques and metocean field data collection including wave measurements, winds, sea levels, sand movement, and water quality to help predict the effect of any changes. This requires a deep understanding of the processes that cause coastlines to behave as they do.
