Research interests
From Melbourne, Jay Evans travelled to North Australia in 2004 after completing a Batchelor of Environmental Science with Honours at Deakin University. Over a few years working across and exploring the northern savannas he developed an interest in processes surrounding tropical fire management. Working with the Darwin Centre for Bushfire Research since 2010 has provided the opportunity to contribute to the development of sustainable savanna fire management options. He is currently undertaking a PhD examining the cost effectiveness and ecological trade-offs of various resourcing and methodological approaches to managing fire in North Australia.
