Adrian McCallum amccallu@usc.edu.au

Organization: University of the Sunshine Coast

Department: Faculty of Science, Health, Education and Engineering

Title: Field scientist and engineer

Specialties: Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) particularly in frozen geomaterials, geohazards, snow mechanics, snow physics, GPR, polar oceanography, alpine glaciology and hydrology, cold regions engineering, polar traverse logistics, polar infrastructure, light-weight scientific expeditions, development of Remote or Autonomous Vehicles (RAVs) for remote area site investigation, climate change adaptation.

Current Research: I specialise in the remote or in situ assessment of remote areas. Founded upon my broad training in oceanography, glaciology and engineering, I continue to stimulate advances in research in the field of AUV development for polar applications.

In 2014 I presented a paper to the International Conference on Radio-glaciology on the use of UAV-mounted Ground Penetrating Radar for remote radio-glaciology. I am currently supervising a PhD student who is developing a UAV-mounted Software Defined Radio (SDR) Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for use in hostile polar environments. This device will also be adaptable to sea ice assessment.

I am currently supervising numerous Honours students who are developing innovative bespoke instrumentation for the physical assessment of polar water masses:

One is developing an autonomous depth-sounder that when released en masse can provide real- time Lagrangian bathymetric information,

Another is developing a bespoke autonomous CTD that can deploy/recover at defined intervals allowing autonomous profiling of water masses, and finally

Another is developing a bespoke cheap and lightweight Doppler radar system that can be used to monitor the movement of ice sheets and sea ice.

Additionally, I am interested in the strategic geopolitical implications of a warming Arctic.
