Professor Cox lectures in the disciplines of Earth Sciences, Geochemistry, Physical Geography and Environmental Geoscience at QUT.
His main research interest area is Geoscience, and he has over 30 years international research and professional experience in groundwater system research, notably conceptual hydrogeological models and hydrochemistry.
His experience covers much of the Pacific Basin and includes geothermal systems as well as water resources, groundwater and surface water interaction, coastal settings, and environmental geochemistry.
He leads a group integrating geoscience and software development to produce 3D visualisation models of hydrogeological systems and processes.
