Personal profile
Research interests
I am a senior research fellow specialising in isotope hydrology and stream carbon cycling. I am interested in understanding the movement of water and associated solutes through tropical landscapes. At CDU, my work examines the transfer of carbon from soils to aquifers and rivers. I co-lead the Top End Hydrology Lab with Dr Dylan Irvine.
Prospective students who have an interest in hydrology or aquatic biogeochemistry are encouraged to contact me. More details here
