The Natural Resources and Environmental Studies Graduate
Program offers a range of degrees and research
streams. Recognising the complexity and
diverse range of issues that confront researchers
and other professionals in the environmental sciences, interdisciplinary
thinking and problem solving are key concepts stressed for both the MSc and
PhD degrees. The flexibility of the NRES Graduate Program and the
diverse interests and expertise of faculty allow students to focus their
research on applied or theoretical aspects of Forestry, Biology, Geography,
Environmental Studies, Environmental Science, Natural Resources Management,
Tourism, and Recreational Resource Management. I am willing to
supervise students in the Biology or Forestry streams of the Master of
Science in Natural Resources and Environmental Studies (MSc NRES) degree or the Master of Natural
Resources and Environmental Studies (MNRES)
degree.
My interests are well
aligned with students wanting to research the large-scale impacts (small
scale if you are a geographer) of people on the environment, with an
emphasis on animal communities. Typically, my research involves
application of GIS and statistical modelling, but I encourage the
collection of original field data and the recognition of relationships at
multiple spatial and temporal scales. I am also interested in
developing research projects that investigate or evaluate the scientific
basis and efficacy of legislation and policy that deal with conservation
and management of natural resources.
