I am a senior groundwater hydrologist working for the QLD Department of Natural Resources & Mines. My primary duties are the construction and calibration of numerical groundwater flow models for water resource planning in the state. I have an engineering (BEng(Env)) and maths (MAppSci(Maths)) background.
So by day I'm interested in what's underground, and by night I'm interested in what's up above - perhaps I am trying to escape the reality inbetween
by the way - great thread to learn more about each other!!
