Mr Tim Sykes

Tim is a mature, part-time PGR  @RiversandPeople

Through the lens of cultural ecosystem services and cultural dis-services, Tim is investigating our relationship with chalk stream headwaters called winterbournes (in their dry, pooling & flowing phases) & chalk aquifers / groundwater.

Tim has adopted Grounded Theory as his approach, enjoys using inductive participatory methods e.g. walking interviews, solicited diary, Q-method, and is drawing upon environmental psychology, social science, philosophy, cultural geography and environmental history in his studies.
