Episode 4: Dr Scott Ling (IMAS) and Simon Allen (CSIRO)
This episode features interviews with Dr Scott Ling, a Senior Lecturer in Marine Ecology at the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (University of Tasmania) and with Mr Simon Allen, a Technologist/Metrologist with CSIRO Agriculture and Food. Among the many interesting things you will hear, Scott relates how the sighting of a fish in a backyard creek as a boy led to a career in researching the changes occurring in Tasmania's marine reef ecosystems. And you will hear Simon talk of his eclectic background which includes chasing pirates with the British Navy, and of his passion for the art and science of measurement and measurement systems, and their applications in understanding the impacts of climate change and weather on Australian agriculture.
