Biography
Erin's overall research profile combines big data with spatial analytics to quantify the effects of climate and environment on plant and animal distributions. With an undergraduate in IT, a Marine Biology PhD, and postdoctoral experience in species distribution modelling, climate adaptation planning, GIS, and remote sensing, she has a wide range of cross-disciplinary skills. In her current role, Erin leverages this skillset to train other researchers in storage, compute, and research software engineering methods.
