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.
