      Biography

      I have over 29 years experience leading successful research programs on topical marine habitats with a focus on seagrass ecology. My passion is finding science-based solutions to apply in the management of marine habitats. I began my research career in government where the importance of having results of research effect change in management and policy was instilled. Based at JCU's Cairns Nguma-bada campus since 2012, I have built a team whose work focuses on coastal development and risk with research outcomes significantly impacting the way seagrass and marine habitats are managed and protected. Results of my work not only lead to advances in the field of seagrass ecology, but have changed practices within coastal development, ports and shipping industries and improved the ability of regulators and managers to protect marine habitats.

      My research is built around establishing partnerships with industry, community and government to deliver applied outcomes effecting real change in marine habitat and seagrass protection. My projects span tropical Australia and the Indo Pacific and develop innovative approaches to assess condition of seagrasses and understand the ecosystem services they deliver. Current projects include assessing Blue Carbon potential of seagrass habitats as well as their fisheries values and interactions with dugongs and green turtles.

      My work on understanding the drivers and processes of tropical seagrass recovery and loss has led to a current research focus developing restoration approaches for tropical seagrasses to apply across Australia and the Indo Pacific.
