Joseph Marlow

Joseph Marlow is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Scottish Marine Institute (SAMS UHI), focusing on benthic ecology and marine growth monitoring. He previously worked at Rothera Research Station (British Antarctic Survey) and earned his PhD studying bioerosion on Indonesian reefs.

• Current Research: Photogrammetry and AI for offshore structure ecology
• Past Work: Antarctic benthic seasonality and reef carbonate budgets

Research Themes include developing AI-driven marine monitoring tools, Antarctic benthic adaptations, decommissioning policy analysis, and bioerosion dynamics in tropical reefs. His work aligns with UN SDGs for ocean sustainability and carbon management.

Scientific Contributions span 17 research outputs (as of 2025), with recent articles on 3D modeling of marine biomass, creel fleet impacts in Scotland, and environmental targets for decommissioning. He also contributes datasets for open science.
