I've always loved learning about weird and wonderful things in nature and really enjoy having a good problem to try and solve.
I achieved my Bachelor of Environmental Science with Honours from UNSW. My honours project assessed global deforestation and the subsequent impacts on plant species distributions.
I then worked in data management consulting for four years before deciding I missed research and casual chats about trees in the office.
I've then returned to UNSW for an industry PhD which means I'm working in collaboration with CSIRO and an industry partner Climate Friendly.
笔谤辞箩别肠迟:听Landscape dynamics of regenerating forests: Predicting climate change impacts on carbon-farming projects in Australian Rangelands
Supervised by:聽Daniel Falster, Andy Pitman, Stephen Roxburgh (CSIRO) and Andrew O'Reilly-Nugent (Industry Partner)
Project Description:聽I'm interested in learning about how Mulga trees (Acacia aneura) would grow under different conditions. For example if the intensity and/or frequency of droughts changed - how would that impact stand structure, growth rates, mortality rates etc. I do this using process-based models to run scenarios and then compare outcomes.
