Curtis Champion

I completed a BEnvSc (Hons) in Marine Science at the University of New South Wales and a PhD in Fisheries Oceanography at the University of Tasmania and CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere. As an early career marine scientist I work across a range of topics, including the effects of regional-scale oceanography on the distribution and body condition of coastal and pelagic fishes, the impacts of environmental change on the health and nutritional quality of harvested marine species, the function of artificial habitat in coastal ecosystems, vulnerability assessment methods for marine species and the development of fishery-relevant indices to support climate adaptation.
