Seems 2021 was my year of rocks! For my @AdvanceQld fellowship my RAs and I dug up +300 kgs of Brisbane River bed above the water treatment plant to quantify #sediment storage.... then cleaned, sorted & re-buried rocks in traps to measure sediment accumulation. Phew! @GriffithARI
Any early career freshwater ecologists interested in working with me at @waikato? We're looking for someone at the Lecturer scale (~equiv to a tenured Assoc Prof in the Nth American system, with equal focus on research and teaching). Apply below!
