Biography
Emeritus Professor Jann Conroy is the Institute’s Associate Director of Research responsible for managing all operational matters to ensure the Institute can effectively undertake and support its research, training and engagement activities. Her research has focused on understanding how climate change will influence the trade-off between growth and water use of fast- and slow- growing eucalypts. The novel feature of this research is that the trees are exposed to CO2 concentrations of 280ppm (pre-industrial level), 400ppm (current) and 700ppm (predicted for the future) in combination with higher temperatures and periodic drought. The research was conducted in the facilities of the Hawkesbury Forest Experiment (controlled-environment glasshouses and CO2-enrichment field site).
