Benjamin Osei Botwe

I am a chemical oceanographer at the Department of Marine and Fisheries Sciences, University of Ghana with over 10 years of university teaching and research experience. My scientific research has focused on the assessment of anthropogenic impacts on coastal and marine ecosystems. I am currently involved in projects that seek to understand and build resilience of coastal communities to climate change and diarrhoea, coastal flooding and erosion in Ghana. I also have interest in the use of low-cost tools to monitor chemical, biological and physical phenomena in estuaries and other parts of the Ghana coast, which are being impacted by artisanal gold mining in Ghana.
