Kevin’s research aims to determine which processes are responsible for generating the landscapes that we see today and to measure the rates at which they change. He draws on expertise from across the geosciences (e.g. tectonics, petrology, geochemistry, geomorphology) and applies a variety of methods including cosmogenic nuclides, geochemical tracers, GIS, surveying and numerical modelling…
Dan is an Earth System scientist interested in long-term ecosystem and climate change. His current research projects focus on reconstruction of past climate variability in the Antarctic, the contribution of peatlands to the global carbon cycle, carbon dynamics in permafrost, and developing stable isotope techniques for climate reconstruction.
Richard’s work seeks to better understand the response of polar ice sheets, and corresponding sea level, to a changing climate. His research primarily focuses on the behaviour of ice sheets in the geological past, using a combination of geomorphology, geochemistry and numerical ice sheet modelling. Following his PhD, Richard was an NZARI-funded Postdoctoral Fellow at…
Andrew’s research interests lie in spatial and spatiotemporal modelling and the tools that enable it. He has developed and applied novel statistical methodologies in areas of climate concerned with the quantification of greenhouse gas sources and sinks, and the contribution of ice sheets to sea level rise.
Matt is a principal research scientist at the Bureau of Meteorology and specialises in equatorial waves, the Madden–Julian oscillation, the Australian monsoon and mechanisms of rainfall variability. He competed his PhD at the University of Colorado in Boulder and a postdoctoral fellowship in the Advanced Study Program at the National Center for Atmospheric Research.
Steve’s research uses field observations, satellite observations and reanalysis products to improve estimates of precipitation over the Southern Ocean and Antarctic.
Karina is a hydrogeochemist specialising in isotope hydrology. Her research interests entail applying a variety of stable, radiogenic and cosmogenic isotopic tracers to investigate lake water processes and soil–water–air interactions.
Felicity’s research uses ice sheet models to investigate the impact of climate variability and change on the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, and the contribution of this to future sea level rise. She is currently an ARC DECRA Fellow in Antarctic Research and in 2019, was awarded a Fulbright Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of California. …
Eun-Pa is a Senior Research Scientist at the Bureau of Meteorology and specialises in the dynamics of the Southern Annular Mode and its relationship with El Niño and the Southern Oscillation, and the Antarctic stratospheric vortex, as well as the predictability of the Australian climate.
Quan specialises in radiocarbon dating and its applications—in particular radiocarbon calibration—and developing high-resolution climate records from mosses, corals, speleothems, tree rings and sediments. He has also contributed to developing capability in preparing ultra-small radiocarbon samples for AMS analysis.
Noel is a Distinguished Professor of Statistics in the School of Mathematics and Applied Statistics, and Director of the Centre for Environmental Informatics in the National Institute for Applied Statistics Research Australia (NIASRA) at the University of Wollongong. His research focuses on environmental informatics, particularly in statistical remote sensing and statistics for spatio-temporal data. His…
In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the lands on which SAEF operates across Australia. We recognise their continuing connection to the land and water, and their deep and enduring understanding of how to care for Country. We are committed to learning from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and building a brighter future together.
