Andrew is a marine biologist whose research on reefs, beginning with a PhD at James Cook University, has taken him to tropical locations worldwide since the 1980s. His current work, within the AIMS Sustainable Use of NW Marine Ecosystems team, is divided between studies of coral reproduction and exploratory surveys to uncover little studied coastal … Continued
David Spencer has completed a BMarSc (Hons) at Griffith University on the Gold Coast, Australia. He started pursuing a career in research when he was awarded a summer scholarship to work with the South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI). The project involved identifying and quantifying the role of small-scale mixing processes during summertime upwelling … Continued
In mid 2014, Carlin was appointed a research officer for Professor Ryan Lowe, and Prof Malcolm McCulloch. Carlin provides support for spatial and data based projects, while also leading co-leading field logistics within the research group. Carlin has a strong background in the spatial and field logistics areas as having spent the previous four years … Continued
Samantha is a Ph.D. candidate in the Environmental Fluid Mechanics and Hydrology Department at Stanford University. Her research focuses on the role that hydrodynamics play on the thermal climate surrounding coral reef habitats. On the Timor Sea cruise, Samantha will be collecting data that will allow for better prediction of temperature in the shallow regions … Continued
Joey is a Ph.D. candidate in environmental fluid mechanics at the University of Western Australia. His research is focused on permeable boundary layer flow, particularly the interaction between the fluid inside the permeable medium and the fluid above this boundary. He received his Bachelor degree in Architecture and his Master degree in Environmental Fluid Mechanics … Continued
