Research

My research in collaboration with the Cooling and Shading sub-program of RRAP involves investigating the potential of solar radiation management solutions like seawater-fogging to reduce coral bleaching, as well as developing and improving methods of measuring coral bleaching through photographic and spectral imaging methods.

My supervisory team is led by Professor Brendan Kelaher, Associate Professor Daniel Harrison and Dr. Peter Butcherine.
