I lived in Australia for 10 years. During this time, I was a Sydney Uni Phd student and a professional working for the Federal initiative OCEAN RESCUE 2000 in New South Wales.
Professor Nix always gave support to my work and assessed my reports in a very positive way. This allow me to travel around the country and work with scientists and managers from Canberra, Victoria, South Australia, Queensland and Northern Territory.
I will never forget him and his advice.
