Robyn Adams MSc

Ms Robyn Adams is an MSc student registered at Stellenbosch University and is supported by SAEON Egagasini. Robyn’s dissertation will investigate an optimal photographic sampling strategy to study spatial and temporal changes in benthic epifaunal diversity at the Prince Edward Island archipelago in the Southern Ocean. This project is important in maintaining baseline records of benthic epifauna in a sensitive marine protected area in the face of regime changes due to climate change. Robyn is supervised by Dr. Tammy Robinson (SU), Dr Charles von der Meden (SAEON), Dr Lara Atkinson (SAEON) and Dr Isabelle Ansorge (UCT). Robyn's MSc is funded by SAEON and the NRF.
