As a geomorphologist my interests lie in landscapes and landform evolution. In many ways my research encompasses natural history, earth science, climatology and resource management. I have had extensive experience in both the research and applied aspects of environmental science working for state governments, resource management agencies and as an independent consultant. * Fluvial geomorphology * Arid zone geomorphology * Palaeoclimatology and Quaternary studies * Geochronology * River and catchment management
