Rob graduated from SRES in 2005 with a BSc (REM) which included an Honours project investigating patterns in fire probability in the Sydney region. After a short stint in the greener pastures of the Tasmania Parks Fire Crew, he returned to the landscape fire group. Rob is working with Geoff Cary and Karen King on a landscape model incorporating simulation of fire regimes and carbon pools and fluxes in the Brindabella/Kosicuszko region. Rob is also kept busy with a second project involving the improvement of the LPJ dynamic global vegetation model for the Australian continent. Some key words/phrases to get him interested in a conversation include: mountain biking, spatial-temporal relationships of weather variables, fire history data, snow boarding, organising a wedding, ecology of any focus (fire, forest, etc), GIS, debating the merits of energy alternatives, and so on and so forth.
