Personal profile

Biographical Details

Dr Reid’s research focuses on understanding pattern and process in floodplain and river ecosystems across a range of spatial and temporal scales. This focus requires interdisciplinary research incorporating palaeoecology, food web ecology, vegetation community ecology, geomorphology, hydrology and ecohydrology.
 
Dr Reid completed his PhD on the palaeoecology of billabongs on the Goulburn River in Victoria at Monash University in 1997. He went on to a post-doctoral fellowship at Monash, where his research focused on developing approaches for monitoring the effectiveness of environmental water allocations on flood plain wetlands. Upon completion of this fellowship, he took up a second post-doctoral fellowship at the National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research in New Zealand where he developed models for reconstructing long-term records of lake productivity to aid managers in detecting eutrophication trends in response to human land use.
 
From 2004 until 2009, Dr Reid was employed as a research fellow at the Riverine Landscapes Research Lab at the University of Canberra on a range of research projects focussed on understanding floodplain river ecosystems. Dr Reid has been at UNE since 2010. At UNE, he teaches units of Earth Surface Systems, Catchment processes and a capstone unit in geographical research. His research at UNE has focused on the rivers of the Murray-Darling Basin, the Mekong Delta in Vietnam and the Danube River in Austria.
 
Dr Reid was President of the Australian Freshwater Sciences Society from 2019 to 2021 and serves on the AFSS National Executive as the immediate past president.
