Pawel Waryszak-001

Pawel's research

Pawel’s research centres around the environmental and data science with a particular focus on plants. He is passionate about discovering plant communities in their undisturbed beauty. He seeks to understand how plant species assemble and function in space and time and if or how these natural vegetation assembly processes can be restored.

Prior to joining the Blue Carbon Lab, Pawel worked as a faculty adjunct working in the wetland communities of the Gulf Coast (Louisiana, USA), where he gained valuable experience conducting fieldwork in subtropical wetlands and analysing large long-term coastal restoration data. Pawel received PhD from Murdoch University (Western Australia) in 2017 after working on a project that aimed to provide solutions to optimize restoration success of the threatened ecological community of Banksia woodland.
