Dr Clive Trueman is Associate Professor in Marine Ecology within Ocean and Earth Science, National Oceanography Centre Southampton at the University of Southampton.

I am a marine ecologist specialising in the use of geochemical tracers to infer aspects of animal behaviour and ecology. My main tools are stable isotope and trace element tracers, and my group uses these tracers to explore questions about movement ecology, diet and food webs and fish ecophysiology. We are particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms that underpin variation in natural tracers, developing new tracer approaches, and learning how to use eco-geochemical tracers to their best effect.

I started out with a Geology degree and PhD from the University of Bristol. I then worked at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC and the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel, exploring aspects of the geochemistry of recent and fossil bone, and archaeological science.

I moved to the University of Portsmouth in the UK in 2002, and changed my research focus to marine ecology. I moved to Southampton in 2006.
