Dr. Ana Paula Da Silva is a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Sydney, specializing in eco-morphodynamics. Her research focuses on the projected changes in wave dynamics and coastal protection for the Great Barrier Reef by 2100. She holds a Ph.D. in Coastal Oceanography from Griffith University, Australia, where her dissertation investigated dynamic climatic conditions that lead to sediment bypassing at Fingal Headland in New South Wales, Australia. Additionally, she has an MSc in Coastal Dynamics and a Bachelor with Honors in Oceanography from the Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Dr. Da Silva's academic work emphasizes understanding wave climate changes, sediment transport, long-term coastal changes, and coastal management. She has also served as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Quebec, where she researched coastal erosion in the Canadian High Arctic. Her research experiences span diverse coastal environments, using field data, GIS, and numerical modeling to analyze processes driving coastal changes across various timescales.
