Duanne WHITE

Roles & Affiliations: Duanne WHITE is an Associate Professor in the Systems Ecology department at the University of Canberra, affiliated with the Centre for Applied Water Science. His expertise spans quantitative geomorphology and geochemistry, focusing on catchment and Earth Systems dynamics.

Research Interests: Dr. WHITE investigates links between landscapes, climate, and biodiversity during the Quaternary period. Key areas include:

• Polar ice sheet behavior in East Antarctica and its impacts on sea-level rise projections.
• Landscape evolution in Australia, leveraging cosmogenic nuclides and borehole paleothermometry.
• Genetic diversity patterns in Australian and Antarctic riverine species influenced by paleo-landscape changes.

Projects & Collaborations: He leads/co-investigates projects such as the Australian Centre for Excellence in Antarctic Science (2021–2025) and ANSTO proposals analyzing Antarctic sediments. Collaborations span institutions globally, focusing on ice dynamics, isotope tracing, and sediment geochemistry.

Labs & Teams: Active in the Centre for Applied Water Science, integrating interdisciplinary approaches to address Antarctic and Australian environmental challenges.
