Peter Scarth

Senior Research Fellow (Earth sciences; Environmental sciences)

Brisbane, Australia

Peter works in the Joint Remote Sensing Research Program (JRSRP), a dedicated intergovernmental/academic collaboration which develops rigorous data management systems and validated mathematical models, which measure and map both major and more subtle changes in Australian vegetation. By monitoring current and historical changes in groundcover, tree structure and biomass the JRSRP team maps vegetation clearing, thickening and detects changes due to fire, floods and overgrazing.
