Marine scientist with a BSc in Marine Systems, now pursuing a Master’s in GIS at UQ. Passionate about spatial analysis, biogeochemistry, and marine ecosystems. I run a marine education non-profit and serve as AMSA deputy editor, advocating science.
I made this Rivers of Australia map in QGIS 🌊🗺️ I loved bringing out the intricate beauty of our river systems across the continent. 💙

Made using QGIS 3.34.15 with HydroSHEDS data

Mapped shoreline retreat for Palm Beach (QLD) using the Bruun Rule + DEA Shorelines data 🌊📉

By 2100, some areas face major erosion risk, even into urban zones. Coastal planning needs to act now 🧠🌏
