About Benjamin Williamson

Benjamin Williamson, With an exceptional h-index of 16 and a recent h-index of 15 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at University of the Highlands and Islands, specializes in the field of Marine Renewable Energy, Offshore Wind, Environmental Monitoring, Multibeam Sonar, Hydroacoustics.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Methods for highlighting ecological monitoring needs in data-sparse regions a case study of impact assessment for multi-component infrastructure installations

Intercomparison of surface velocimetry techniques for drone-based marine current characterization

Spatiotemporal variations in reef manta ray (Mobula alfredi) residency at a remote meso‐scale habitat and its importance in future spatial planning

Diet of the European Shag Gulosus aristotelis during the non-breeding season at a roost within a tidal channel

Comparison of reanalysis datasets with historical wave buoy data in northern Scottish waters.

The bigger picture: Developing a low-cost graphical user interface to process drone imagery of tidal stream environments

A paradigm for understanding whole ecosystem effects of offshore wind farms in shelf seas

A Review of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Usage as an Environmental Survey Tool within Tidal Stream Environments
