Associate Professor of Natural Sciences (Oceanography), Flinders University

Associate Professor of Natural Sciences (Oceanography), Flinders University I am a natural scientist (oceanographer) and lecturer at Flinders University since 1999. One of my research highlights so far was the discovery of the Great Southern Coastal Upwelling System, which is an important nutrient source fueling the marine food chain on the southern shelves of Australia.Apart from my scientific work, I have been a scientific activist on various issues around preservation of marine resources (e.g. oil drilling in the Great Australian Bight). I have four children and in my free time I enjoy playing music (trombone is my favorite instrument at the moment) and I just published two series of children bedtime stories on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Jochen-Kaempf/e/B011N5JZDS).

Research Assistant, Michigan State University

Research Assistant, Michigan State University I am currently a master's student and research assistant in the Department of Community Sustainability. Broadly speaking, I am interested in the social, temporal, and spatial dimensions of renewable energy technology. My current research focuses on local community involvement and perceptions of solar energy projects and my master’s thesis work specifically is focused on elucidating urban resident preferences and perceptions of large-scale solar projects developed on urban brownfields and in urban contexts. Outside of work I enjoy napping with my cats, hiking with my partner, and complaining about suburban sprawl. I have a BA in Political Science and BSc in Microbiology from Miami University. Before joining the CSUS Department in the fall of 2022 I was a sales representative at ThermoFisher Scientific.
