About the speaker: Originally from Canada, Ryan Vogwill joined the Department of Environment and Conservation in 2006 and had previously worked for the Department of Water after completing his PhD at Curtin University. In his PhD he used fractals to model pore space as well as regional scale flow modelling and local scale investigations to look at the capacity of groundwater abstraction to impact on the 150,000 migratory wader birds, which come to Broome annually. Prior to joining DEC and UWA Ryan worked on Gnangara Mound rationalising the triple bottom line (social, economic and environmental benefits of water) using the Perth Regional Aquifer Modelling System (PRAMS).

Ryan is now a joint Associate Professor in Hydrogeology at UWA and Curtin.
