个人简介
I’m a Forest Ecologist, one with a broad range of interests and skills that have been formed by working across a wide range of landscapes that each present their own challenges and opportunities.
My doctoral work examined tree decline in the last remaining habitat of the Helmeted Honeyeater, Victoria’s bird emblem. During that time much of my work was spent examining plant-soil feedbacks and disruptions to those feedbacks that led to a decline in tree health and associated changes in the vegetation community. Following my PhD, I moved to Central Queensland where I spent a number of years working in industrial land management, and in particular, research associated with the conservation and management of native vegetation communities subjected to a number of threats, including clearing for dam expansion, pollution from nickel and shale-oil refineries, land subsidence from underground mining, and toxic substrates left over from historical gold mining.
In the context of historical gold mines, I was charged with formulating a restoration plan for returning vegetation cover to exposed substrates to prevent the leaching of toxic elements into associated waterways.
Returning to Victoria, I first worked on a large-scale restoration project, aimed at returning 2000 ha of pine plantation back to native eucalypt forest – here much of my work looked at the role of land use history in dictating the potential for native species recovery - what species would return on their own and what species required re-introduction.
These days I conduct much of my work in the large Ash forests in the Central Highlands in north-east Victoria where I investigate the effects of climate change, fire and forest harvesting on plant regeneration and survival.
I also teach into the Master of Ecosystem Management and Conservation where I co-cordinate the subject Ecological Restoration.
