Opportunities for Students
Particular areas of research include the impacts of climate variability and change on marine biological systems, and modelling impacts of climate change on marine biodiversity and implications for conservation. Having a position at UQ, I can supervise students by myself but commonly jointly supervise students with other CSIRO collaborators.
