Autor

Professor Derek Eamus is a professor in the School of Life Sciences, University of Technology, Sydney. He is an internationally recognised plant ecophysiologist and ecohydrologist. He specialises in measuring plant water relations, stomatal behaviour, the carbon and water balances of native woodlands and forests and forging of cross-disciplinary links between our understanding of processes at cellular, whole plant and canopy scales. He has worked extensively in north Australian mesic savannas, arid-zone central Australia and temperate mesic forests, including a range of groundwater dependent ecosystems. He has published more than 185 research publications in diverse journals, including Nature, Nature Climate Change, Remote Sensing of Environment, the Journal of Hydrology, Tree Physiology, Global Change Biology and Agricultural and Forest Meteorology. In 2010 he was awarded the inaugural Chancellor's Medal for Research Leadership and simultaneously, the inaugural Vice-Chancellor's Medal for Research Excellence, from the University of Technology, Sydney. He is the author of Ecohydrology: Water and Resource Management (2006), which provided the first integrative text on hydrology, ecophysiology and ecology of Australian landscapes.
