Represented By: Ivan Mulcahy

James Scourse is a marine scientist at the University of Exeter who writes science, about the process of doing science, about science communication and about science and society.

In a research career spanning 40 years he has worked on the ocean’s role in natural climate variability over long timescales and, increasingly, the human imprint on the oceans.

His group has developed new techniques for understanding the long-term history of the oceans and he is one of the leaders of the European Research Council’s seven-year project SEACHANGE reconstructing changes in ecosystem functioning and biodiversity in the oceans as a result of human cultural changes.

James has led several research expeditions at sea – including between 2017 and 2020 three in Antarctica - and has managed many major research organisations. He was President of the Quaternary Research Association (2008-2011), Editor of the Journal of Quaternary Science (2000-2004) and held a Royal Society-Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellowship in 2008-2009. He was Director of the Climate Change Consortium of Wales between 2011 and 2015 and is a Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales.
