Roy Chester



I retired as the Proudman Professor of Oceanography in the Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences at the University of Liverpool in 2001.

I am the author of over 125 papers in the mainstream scientific literature and have written a number of textbooks.

I have also served as a lay member of the Mental Health Tribunal for over 25 years.

Since retirement, my writing has focused on crime thrillers.
