John Potter
About
Marine physical scientist with degrees in mathematics, physics, polar oceanography and glaciology coupled with extensive senior management & technology development experience combining a holistic 'big picture' vision with an environmental conservation and sustainability focus.
Specialisations include environmental impact and assessment in UW acoustics, oceanography, ambient noise and marine mammals. Currently focussing on autonomous vehicles, machine intelligence, communications, distributed autonomous sensing networks and their application to sustainable ocean practises.
