About
A/Prof Gary Sheridan

Gary Sheridan is a member of the Department of Forest and Ecosystem Science at the University of Melbourne.

Gary Sheridan's long term research interests are hillslope hydrology, water balance, and soil erosion processes. His recent published work has focused on post-fire hydrology and erosion in forests, and scaling and connectivity modelling problems in hillslope hydrology. Current research includes the development of improved high resolution surface fuel moisture models for fire-prone south east Australian forests.
