David Aldridge

David Aldridge is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences. His research focuses on applied freshwater ecology, with a particular emphasis on bivalve molluscs. His work encompasses ecology, aquatic conservation, invasive species, and aquaculture. Aldridge's research involves techniques such as field work, laboratory experiments, and microencapsulation. He collaborates on areas including biomaterials and ecosystem engineering.

David C Aldridge is a researcher at the University of Cambridge focusing on freshwater ecosystems and invasive species. His work explores the ecological impacts of invasive bivalves, microplastics, and climate change on aquatic environments. Aldridge's research emphasizes the role of human activity in shaping the distribution of invasive species and the conservation status of freshwater molluscs. He has contributed to horizon scanning for invasive alien species and the development of metrics to assess their ecological impacts. His studies also address sustainable aquaculture and the effects of plastic pollution on freshwater systems.
