Christopher Unsworth is a Researcher at the School of Ocean Sciences, Bangor University, specializing in coastal oceanography and sediment transport dynamics. He currently leads the SEACAMS-2 project, focusing on renewable energy infrastructure and sediment-turbulence interactions. His work integrates field measurements, numerical modeling, and advanced acoustic techniques to study hyper-tidal environments like Morecambe Bay. With expertise in acoustic instrumentation (ADCP, SBES) and software (MATLAB, ArcGIS), he has conducted extensive fieldwork in Canada’s South Saskatchewan River and contributed to projects like BlueCOAST. His research aligns with UN SDGs, emphasizing sustainable coastal management and renewable energy innovation. Education: PhD in River Dunes in Unsteady Conditions (University of Hull, 2015) MRes in Catchment Dynamics and Management (University of Leeds, 2011) BSc in Geology and Geography (University of Birmingham, 2010) Research Interests: Coastal sediment dynamics and turbulence in tidal systems Infrastructure impacts on seabed morphodynamics Offshore wind energy and cable self-burial mechanisms Integration of field data with numerical models Key Projects: SEACAMS-2: Turbulence and sediment transport for renewable energy ECOWind-ACCELERATE: Seabed mobility around windfarms META in Wales: Marine energy test site characterization Collaborations: Active partnerships with institutions like Cefas and Nortek, focusing on instrument development and environmental monitoring.
