Senior Lecturer in Spatial Science at #geogmelb @SciMelb @unimelb. I focus on strategies to manage ecosystem services under uncertain global change scenarios.
Melbourne, Victoria
Joined August 2014
Excited to share our new paper in @IOPenvironment modelling the outcomes of different grazing land management under #ClimateChange in northern Australia. Lots of trade-offs, but some balance is possible between environment and production. @SciMelb @brettabryan @j_r_rhodes

Thoroughly enjoyed writing this interdisciplinary paper with 5 incredible #WomeninSTEM - we combined SDMs with a multi-criteria analysis to identify opportunities for #livingshorelines - Alys Young @RKRunting @HeiniKujala @bethaniey15 @tkonlechner

Congratulations @SofiaLop11 ! Looking forward to working with you at @SciMelb
It's a great pleasure to me to have obtained one of these fellowships to continue exploring how to optimize restoration in agricultural landscapes by using ecosystem services! At @SciMelb with @RKRunting and @MayfieldLabMelb

Honoured to be recognised as a runner-up for the @Science_Academy nomination to the APEC ASPIRE prize. @SciMelb #GeogMelb. Congrats to @Georgina_Gurney!
Two Australian runners-up for the 2022 prize nomination have also been recognised: Dr @RKRunting a spatial scientist at @unimel is recognised for her work using innovative spatial planning methods to help reconcile economic, social & environmental goals on limited land areas.

Come work with us @_Planet_A! Lots of projects available spanning multiple #SDGs. Modelling, participatory, integrated, transdisciplinary projects. Local to global scales. Drop me a line to discuss an idea.

1/5 Payment for Ecosystem Services have a big potential to protect biodiversity while achieving social and economic benefits. However, defining their objectives and the spatial allocation is not easy task. Our framework explores trade-offs among objectives https://t.co/sZe3prkAyM

Australia has a rich marine transboundary fauna and the #EscazĂș agreement can inspire this country to collaborate among nations to protect it. Here we explained why: https://t.co/osowMmlovF

Nations must work with their neighbours to manage and protect species and human rights. An international environmental deal called the EscazĂș Agreement shows whatâs possible.

The landmark #EscazĂș Agreement fosters env democracy, cooperation, and human rights in LAC. We propose three mechanisms to achieve these goals and identify initiatives that exemplify opportunities for implementation. @ConLetters @RKRunting et al (1/6) https://t.co/ntGMr61jJv

Love Thy Neighbour (or at least Collaborate With Thy Neighbour) key for ocean conservation More than 90% of mapped marine species live in or travel across multiple political jurisdictions. New article @GlobalChangeBio

An understanding of how species are distributed across political borders in the ocean is important for informing high-level conservation strategies. We used 28,252 marine species range maps to...

Attention coffee lovers, you should be also loving bees! Using systematic planning, we show how pollination services can retain 70% of forest while increasing 30% coffee yields - decreasing the negative impacts of coffee expansion. @RKRunting @McMadLab @MayfieldLabUQ @UQ_CBCS
Higher #conservation and #foodproduction outcomes are achieved in #agricultural landscapes by including #pollination services. More here: https://t.co/93Qs4hpuE0
