Brief description of my PhD project

Using a novel approach combining species distribution modelling and a suite of field experiments, this research investigates primary and secondary effects of climate change on the distribution and persistence of Australian mountain flora by examining current treeline dynamics and the potential for upslope migration, as well as alpine flora resilience to subalpine invasion under predicted warmer climates.
