BSc Hons, PhD(Otago) Fulbright New Zealand Scholar Award (2015) University of Otago Excellence in Teaching Award (2011) University of Otago Early Career Award for Distinction in Research (2004) Editor's Citation for Excellence in Refereeing for the American Geophysical Union's Journal of Geophysical Research - Space Physics (1998 and 2014) Inaugural Hatherton Award from the Royal Society of New Zealand (1997)
Research Interest
I am active in three different fields. One of these fields is "Space Weather" which examines the energy flows from the Sun and how it impacts the environment on and around the Earth. I am also active in the Atmospheric Electricity community, which focuses primarily on lightning and thunderstorms, and finally I have also undertaken some work on greenhouse gases emitted from transport.
