Dr Kate Waddington completed her PhD studies at WRL in 2024, researching the remediation and rehabilitation of estuarine wetlands. In NSW, coastal floodplains can be significantly affected by acid-sulfate soils and deoxygenation, or blackwater events, contributing to the degradation of adjoining estuarine ecosystems; with associated adverse impacts on local industry and infrastructure.

Kate is an expert in the prioritisation of catchments using multi-criteria decision analysis to assist in targeting remediation projects to optimise environmental, social and economic outcomes.
