Jack A Brand

I am currently a Senior Scientist in Data and Modelling with the Aquatic Ecology team at the Arthur Rylah Institute for Environmental Research. I did my PhD with Bob Wong at Monash University, after which I spent 3 years in Europe studying how pharmaceutical pollution affects trout and salmon movement dynamics. Broadly, my research examines how environmental change (e.g. temperature, chemical pollutants, & altered flows) shape animal movement and behaviour, combining experimental work with modern tracking and biologging tools. My current work is mainly focused on modelling how flow dynamics affect fish movement, recruitment, and population dynamics.
