Scholia has a profile for Maria Byrne (Q39475099).

Maria Byrne FAA is an Australian marine biologist, and professor of marine and developmental biology at the University of Sydney and a member of the Sydney Environment Institute. She spent 12 years as director of the university's research station on One Tree Island.[1]

Career

[edit]

Byrne is the co-editor of Australian Echinoderms.[2] She and co-author Tim O'Hara were joint winners of the 2018 Whitley Medal for the book.[3] She has been publishing her research on Echinodermata since the early 1980s.[4] In 2000-2002 she was the President of the Australian Marine Sciences Association.[5]

Her research interests include the impact of climate change on marine invertebrates,[6][7][8][9] She has published on sea-urchins and crown-of-thorns star-fish.,[10][11] as well as evolutionary developmental biology,[12][13] She has also published on egg-provisioning, and the use of mass-spectrometry [14][15] as well as the biology of the crown of thorns star-fish[16][17][11] and other echinodermata.[14][18][15][19] Her most cited article (October 2020) with 966[20] (or 1314)[21] citations is "Global warming and recurrent mass bleaching of corals".[20]

Byrne was elected Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 2019.[22]
