Research interests
Graeme has a wide range of interests, centering around understanding spatial aspects of ecology and the relevance of broad-scale pattern-process dynamics for ecosystem (and social-ecological system) function and resilience. He is also interested in the applications of landscape ecology and complexity theory to conservation and the sustainable management of natural resources.

Graeme's current research focus is on understanding the geography and sustainability of protected areas (broadly defined) and the ecosystem services they support. His Premier's Science Fellowship program will explore the roles, social-ecological feedbacks, and regional contributions of coastal protected areas to coastal resilience.
