Development and improvement of software (c-calcita) for image processing and obtaining morphometry and thickness measurements in coccoliths2022-01-01ZAcademic/UniversitySpain- Obtention of a set of 2800 pictures of coccoliths under circular polarisation technique. - Individual morphometric measurements (coccolith size, mass and volume) for a set of 20 to 50 coccoliths belonging to each size class of interest (3 size classes) at each of the studied locations (20 locations). - Quantification of the changes in coccolith thickness and changes in the production of PIC (particulae inorganic carbon) to POC (particulate organic carbon) from the morphometric measurements for each of the groups studied in each location. The results of this collaboration provide a complete approach of the changes in calcification of coccolithophores, trough the modern Atlantic Ocean, from a morphometrical perspective. This data is integrated with the stable isotope measurements of coccolith carbon 13 in these materials, in order to i) completely constrain the changes in calcification from the combination of techniques and ii) control and understand the potential environmental parameters of influence of the reconstructed changes. This activity and outcome is directly connected with one of the main objectives of PUCCA.ETH - Global changes in the calcification of Noëlaerhabdaceae coccolithophoresETH ZurichAdvanced micropaleontologicalcharacterization of changes in i) structure of coccolithophore assemblages in the sediments and ii) changes in morphometric patterns and morphological divergence among the main populations of Noëlaerhabdaceae.Development of a specific technique for the reconstruction of the changes in Noëlaerhabdaceae calcification, for the specific interval of study, by the use of a calcite wedge (patented at the collaborating institution) for the calibration of the thickness of the calcite from the variation of the range of the color of the pixels in the photographied coccoliths.2022-01-01ZAcademic/UniversitySwitzerlandEvaluation of potential areas of study, within the global ocean and selection of materials.

This has involved meeting almost weekly with Focus Games; updating game designs in line with playtesting feedback; coordinating the delivery of a new commercialisation agreement between the two parties; agreeing branding principles; developing a commercialisation strategy; organising launch events; developing marketing and promotional materials; developing content for the website; and sharing details about the game with interested parties via email, word of mouth, and social media.Focus Games implemented agreed design ideas; engaged in negotiations for the new commercialisation agreement; implemented branding specifications; put into action the agreed commercialisation strategy; assisted in organisating launch events; developed marketing and promotional materials; built the website; marketed and advertised the game.

The partnership also enabled me to successfully secure a Higher Education Funding Council for Wales Swansea University Impact Fellowship, worth £24,927. As a result of our successful collaboration, I have introduced Focus Games to a wide number of colleagues across the University (and beyond), who have since began their own collaborative projects with Focus Games.

Additionally, Focus Games have agreed to be on the new Industry Panel for the Higher Education courses run for the Department of History, Heritage, and Classics at Swansea University.
