Biography
Peter Kershaw was appointed Emeritus Professor in the School of Earth, Atmsophere and Environment after working for nearly 40 years at Monash as a Lecturer, Reader and Professor, mainly in The School of Geography and Environmental Science. His research, and that of his research students and post-doctoral fellows, has focused on the reconstruction of past natural and human-modified landscapes, largely through the analysis of fossil pollen, and applications to the understanding of present-day environments and predictions of future environmental change.
