I am Chief Investigator for the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes, Deputy Director of the Australian Centre for Excellence in Antarctic Science, and Deputy Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Weather of the 21st Century.
My research focuses on how the Earth’s climate has behaved over the last millennium, and what that tells us about the climate changes we are seeing now. The past climate records that I develop come from corals, caves and ice cores, and I combine these with climate model data to study climate changes.
Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science
