Congratuations go out to PARG PhD student and long time member of the UNE Physics and Electronics department Dr Paul Coop (PhD).  Paul’s doctorate investigated possible techniques for determining if a monolayer (one molecule wide) existed on the surface of water in a open reservoir situation such as a lake or dam.  Paul presented his findings at the recent SEAg 2011 conference held at Surfer Paradise on the Gold Coast.  To read more about Paul and his project visit: www.une.edu.au/parg/paul_coop.php .paul_coop
