Robert A B Mason Australian Marine Sciences Association 2026 Conference

Robert A B Mason

Robert is working on the investigation of ocean dynamics in south-east Australian waters using observational data and the Coastal and Regional Oceanography Lab’s ocean model. Prior to joining UNSW, he was a CSIRO Early Research Career Fellow during which he validated hydrodynamic, Lagrangian and individual-based models for predicting the oceanic dispersal of coral larvae following mass coral spawning. He also worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Queensland, using the output of atmosphere-ocean general circulation models to forecast future scenarios for the health of the Great Barrier Reef. He has an undergraduate degree in biology from Macquarie University, a MSc in Applied Mathematics from Imperial College London, and a PhD in Marine Biology and Biological Oceanography from the University of Queensland
