معرفی
Professor John Stewart is an evolutionary palaeoecologist at Bournemouth University, specializing in the use of faunas to reconstruct Pleistocene-Holocene ecologies and study species responses to environmental change. His work bridges ancient DNA analysis, climate modeling, and conservation biology.
- Research Focus: Ice age refugia, molecular biogeography, Quaternary data applications in conservation, and Neanderthal-environment interactions.
- Key Collaborations: Ancient DNA practitioners, European paleontological teams, and conservation institutions like Natural England.
- Students: Includes Jacqueline Pitt (ecology of chickens), Oxala García-Rodríguez (phylogeography), Becca Rickard (bird-climate links), and Monika Knul (mammalian range dynamics).
His recent publications focus on genetic diversity in cold-adapted species, human-driven ecological changes, and applications of ancient DNA to historical biogeography. Grants from the Leakey Foundation and EU-funded synthesis projects support his interdisciplinary work at sites like Trou Al'Wesse (Belgium) and Tolbor 16 (Mongolia).
