Stakeholder Council

Mark has held Professorial appointments at UWA, the University of Melbourne, and most recently at UNSW.

In 2006 he finished a six-year term as a member of the Board of Trustees for the WorldAgroforestry Centre in Nairobi, Kenya and has served in an honorary capacity with other international research organizations focused on helping the world’s poor.

Mark publishes widely with a focus on sustainability and biogeochemistry of natural and managed ecosystems. He has held a range of fellowships and awards in Australia, France, NZ and Germany.

Fire has been a constant element of his research since the 1982 and 1983 fires burnt his PhD study sites on the outskirts of Melbourne.  His current research focuses on water, carbon and greenhouse gas emissions and how these are affected by climate and fire.

He is particularly concerned that the general public are better informed about the need for human engagement in management of terrestrial ecosystems, as opposed to philosophies that suggest ‘nature rules’.

A passionate believer in “conservation through use”, Mark enjoys working with students and with people who live on and work the land.
