New paper: Desert mammal populations are limited by introduced predators rather than future climate change
Authors: Aaron C. Greenville, Glenda M. Wardle & Chris R. Dickman Published in: Royal Society Open Science Abstract: Climate change is predicted to place up to one in six species at risk of extinction in coming decades, but extinction probability … Continue reading
New book: Monitoring threatened species and ecological communities
A new book is coming that aims to improve the standard of monitoring for Australia’s threatened biodiversity and I had the opportunity to contribute to one of the chapters. Update: The book received the 2018 Whitley Award commendation for Conservation … Continue reading

ESA 2015 conference talk: Managing species across vast spatial areas: does one size fit all?
Understanding how the spatial and temporal dynamics of populations vary across the landscape is fundamentally important to managing and conserving species. For example, populations may fluctuate in synchrony, or exhibit other forms of spatial sub-structuring, due to intrinsic population parameters … Continue reading

My PhD journey comes to an end: the role of ecological interactions
Ecology is often described as the web of life. Many complex interactions occur across this web, including between individuals of the same or different species (biotic) or between the environment and a species (abiotic). Understanding ecological interactions, such as the … Continue reading
