It all starts with digging holes and installing equipment. I am using an auger to install the FullStop wetting front detector. In the foreground there is a tensiometer (orange tube) and a Watermark sensor, both used for measuring soil water suction.
I studied Agricultural Science and then completed a PhD at the University of Sydney.
I joined CSIRO in 1990 and am currently a Principal Research Scientist based in Canberra working on irrigation, water productivity and the ecological footprint of agriculture.
I also hold an honorary chair in the Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences at the University of Pretoria, South Africa.
