I was recently interviewed by Hannah Hatcher to discuss my success applying for an Australian Research Council Early Career Industry Fellowship for my project, Elevating mangrove recovery: the role of accretion under sea level rise. I share my insights to help ECRs apply for similar schemes.

🌊 If you're interested in Hydrological Restoration, add this to your reading list! 🌳 The latest paper by Vicki Bennion shows that developing mangrove communities were prone to the highest elevation changes - an important predictor for restoration success. 🌿 doi.org/10.1016/j.ec...

🌊🌳Nature-based solutions (NbS) for coastal protection are being implemented successfully! Our paper synthesises examples of 240 successes identified through interviews with NbS practitioners!🎉 How did they do it? Best read the paper: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S... doi.org/10.1016/j.en...

🚨The system needs to change! #Academia fails to recognise success metrics for #transdisciplinary #ECRs in #conservation 🐯🌳We've published solutions to the 8 most prominent challenges facing those of us in industry & academia! @ecolology.bsky.social @uq-cbcs.bsky.social doi.org/10.1016/j.pe...

🌱New Paper Alert!🌊 We compiled a dataset of >17,000 published mangrove observations outlining their root, trunk and canopy geometries so they can be modelled more accurately, published in @estuariescoasts.bsky.social doi.org/10.1007/s122...

💫Last week I was able to celebrate national Women and Girls in Science Day by attending Science Meets Parliament in Canberra with the amazing Superstars of STEM! This is an incredible cohort of talented STEM professionals who are all fiercely passionate about their work 🧫🧪

🌊Happy belated World Wetlands Day! 🐊 It seems that tides are often perfect for fieldwork on weekends 😅 It was great to have the help of 6 other wetland warriors conducting fieldwork as part of a PhD project with Kayla Ostrow.

How cool is this mangrove art exhibit? www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

First Bluesky post 🙌🏼 Yeah the engineering girls! Had a blast setting up wave monitoring equipment in the mangroves this week for Kayla Ostow’s PhD work 🌊 My muscles sure are sore today!
