Research areas:
Conservation, Ecology, Evolution and Behaviour
Areas of expertise:
I aim to understand how and why biodiversity is distributed across the landscapes. I use predictive modelling that draws from a range of subfields (macro-ecology, community ecology, biogeography and phylo-geography) and data (traits, phylogenies, experts) and am also interested in translating biodiversity science to inform conservation planning. I work with many plant and animal taxa, but am especially intrigued by eucalypt forests.
