I am an Associate Investigator in palaeo-ecological vegetation modeling for the new ARC Centre of Excellence for Australian Biodiversity and Heritage. I am also a Research Fellow in environmental modeling and climate change in the Department of Biological Sciences at Macquarie University. I am particularly interested in the area of 1) Palaeo-Vegetation Modelling to identify the impacts of climate and human-driven landscape change on megafauna extinctions in Australia, 2) climate change impacts on biodiversity and plant species and 3) undertaking risk assessments.
