We are pleased to annouce that the 2021 NZSA Awards recipients are Charlotte Jones-Todd (Worsley Award) and Russell Millar (Littlejohn Award).
Worsley Award: Charlotte Jones-Todd | Citation: Increasing amounts of spatio-temporally indexed data are available from different disciplines ranging from disaster resourcing to species distribution. Charlotte develops point process models that incorporate stochastic structures to better inform the complex temporal and spatial evolution of these data. | |
Littlejohn Award: Russell Millar | Citation: Russell’s work has had worldwide impact on the way that fishing gear is constructed and deployed so as to minimize bycatch, improve fish welfare, and reduce environmental impact. His theoretical contributions underpin numerous methodological advancements in quantitative ecology, marine conservation, and resource management. |
