Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolMartin Poot is a seasoned applied bird ecologist with 11+ years of experience specializing in seabirds, shorebirds, migration and wetland species, currently serving as Senior Researcher Seabird Ecology at Wageningen Marine Research. He combines extensive field expertise in aerial and ship-based seabird surveys with advanced movement ecology methods—radar, GPS loggers, geolocators and satellite transmitters—and strong statistical skills in R developed during 8.5 years as a statistical researcher at Statistics Netherlands. Martin has an international track record coordinating and advising projects across Europe and Africa, including expeditions in the White Sea and conservation work for LIFE marine projects in Portugal. As an EIA Committee expert he links rigorous monitoring and quality control to applied conservation and policy, and his background in bird ringing and distance analysis adds practical depth often missing in purely modeling-focused ecologists.
