I'm an researcher with interests centred on computers and their use in the environmental and social sciences. My theoretical interests include 
agent-based modelling, fuzzy/vague objects and ontologies, dynamic data assimilation, web-based mapping, and computer ethics. Practically, I've been involved in  
areas as diverse as glaciology, hydrology, economic modelling, medieval folklore, crime prediction, and environmental risk.
