Tegan Dedman Freshwater Sciences 2023

Tegan Dedman

My area of interest is aquatic ecology, in relation to the organisms that live within freshwater wetlands and their ecosystems. I completed my Honours degree in Environmental Science at Murdoch University in 2019, where I completed a study on the aquatic ecosystems of the Swan Coastal Plain, WA, which focused on the propagule banks and sedimentary processes in natural and anthropogenic urban wetlands. Since then, I have continued my research in aquatic ecology as a PhD Candidate at Charles Darwin University in the Northern Territory. My PhD is on the impacts of sea level rise and salt-water intrusion on freshwater coastal wetlands of northern Australia, and how it affects the transfer of energy and nutrients through the trophic levels within the aquatic ecosystem.
