Biography
Dr Aaron Lim is a Lecturer in Marine Geosciences, Director of MSc Applied Coastal and Marine Management and Head of the Earth and Ocean Lab at University College Cork. He holds a PhD in Marine Geosciences and his research interests seabed habitat mapping, development of novel seabed mapping and monitoring methods and contemporary seabed processes. Since 2017, Dr Lim has won >€4M in research grants (SFI, Marine Institute, H2020, PIP, EI, GSI, EPA and IRC) and published >30 peer-reviewed research articles with a H-index of 15. He has won UCC Early-stage Research of the Year, the Presidents Award for Research into Innovative form of Teaching, the Gold Medal Delap prize with 2 articles selected as Editors choice Nature Science Reports (‘Top 100 in Earth Science’ and ‘Editors Choice for Coral Reefs’). He has 2 years of senior scientific management experience in the offshore survey/renewable industry and was previously a member of the EuroFleets+ Scientific Advisory Committee. He has participated in over 15 research cruises (chief scientist on four) ranging from the Mid-Atlantic, North Atlantic, Celtic Sea and Irish Sea.
Research Interests
- Development of novel marine and coastal mapping and monitoring methods
- Development and novel application of marine geomatics, imaging and spatial analyses (typically applied to multibeam, photogrammetry, acoustic backscatter (side scan sonar and multibeam snippets), magnetometry, ROV and AUV operations, sub-bottom profiler, point clouds)
- Understanding active and recent seabed processes
- Mapping cold water coral habitats in space and time
