This time last week I was organising my first piece for @ConversationEDU after the latest climate update from the Bureau of Meteorology. Yes El Niño has been associated with #drought in Aus, but there's more pieces to the puzzle.

After record rain last summer, an abnormally wet winter and a seemingly late start to warmer weather this year, we finally broke ground on our new collaborative project.

We are looking for an Honours student to help develop novel methods for monitoring pasture growth and quality via remote sensing! If you might be interested in spending a year in the beautiful Northern Rivers, come join us at Southern Cross University.
