CAREER SUMMARY
I had + 10 years' experience, during this period I had strong knowledge in the field
of marine ecology, biology, EIA and ICZM in the Red Sea and Arabian Gulf.
I conducted offshore surveys include: Zooplankton, Phytoplankton, Macro, Meio-
benthic fauna (Epifauna and Infauna), Seaweed, Fish count, Fish trawling, mangrove
and Coral reef in the Arabian Gulf (Kuwait) and Red Sea (Egypt).
I conducted inshore surveys include: flora, reptile, mammals and birds.
Also, I conducted EIA studies, CEMP and EBS of mega projects ex. (Causeway, Oil
Company, sea port and hotels ...).
