Emeritus Fellow, UK Centre of Ecology & Hydrology welcmd@gmail.comI began plant recording while still at school in Lancashire, records appearing in the 1962 Atlas. I started work for the Nature Conservancy in 1958 before going to Cambridge to read botany. I then continued in NC and successor organisations, ITE and CEH, researching grazing, trees, vegetation, and am now an Emeritus Fellow.
