Justine I Carey
Justine is a PhD candidate at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences in Vienna, Austria, where she completed her MSc in Applied Limnology. She is a part of the Human Rivers in the 21st Century doctoral school, and her PhD title is 'Multi-scale spatial analyses of freshwater ecosystems to support conservation and restoration in Industrialised River Landscapes.' She is also a part of Limnosolve, an interdisciplinary limnological science consultancy.
Her doctoral project includes the global study presented here, a meta-analysis of hydropower and co-occurring stressors, a hydromorphological catchment analysis in Kazakhstan using open-source data, and the compilation of the first freshwater biodiversity database in Central Asia since the 1930s, which will include a novel eDNA analysis and an assessment of anthropogenic pressures. Her research interests include anthropogenic pressures, hydromorphology, spatial analysis, catchment management, and data visualisation.
Before becoming a scientist, Justine was a practising landscape architect for over 10 years in New Zealand, Australia, and the U.S. She has been passionate about river conservation since growing up next to the Yarran Dherran Creek in Melbourne during the Millennium Drought. She previously lived in Christchurch, New Zealand, and has lived in Austria since 2020.
