Rate My Professor Vincent Raoult

Dr. Vincent Raoult serves as a Senior Lecturer in the School of Environment and Science at Griffith University, with a focus on marine ecology. He obtained his PhD from Macquarie University in 2016, where his doctoral research centered on fisheries, ecology, conservation, management, and physiology. Earlier, from February 2010 to November 2010, he conducted studies at Macquarie University on behaviour, physiology, and learning. His career trajectory includes a Research Fellow position at Deakin University from November 2022 to July 2024, postdoctoral research at Macquarie University starting January 2022, and tutoring roles in the Department of Biological Sciences at Macquarie University from February 2011 onwards. Raoult's academic profile is verified through Griffith University's experts portal and Google Scholar, where he is affiliated as Senior Lecturer, Marine Ecology, Griffith University.

A behavioural ecologist, Vincent Raoult investigates marine systems with interests spanning fisheries management, coral reef dynamics, elasmobranch biology—particularly sharks and rays—physiology, and remote sensing using drones and remotely operated vehicles. He applies stable isotope analysis to explore ecological interactions from individual species to entire ecosystems, developing novel methodologies for marine conservation and resource management. His work has been conducted across diverse environments, including coral reefs, temperate estuaries, and remote seas such as those around Tasmania. Key publications include 'Coral bleaching and mass mortality at Lizard Island revealed using drones' (2025, Coral Reefs), 'Drones reveal extreme coral mortality after bleaching' (2025, Griffith University news lead-authored study), 'Shearing Tooth Morphology May Allow Sharks to Access Demersal Prey' (2025), 'Stable isotope analysis reveals resource use by rays in an Australian temperate estuary' (2026, Journal of Fish Biology), 'Patterns of mother–embryo isotope fractionation in batoids' (2022), and 'Length–Weight Relationships of Commercial Species in the Hawkesbury-Nepean Estuary' (2024). At Griffith University, he teaches courses like Marine Conservation and Resource Management (3332ENV), supervises honours and postgraduate students, manages research equipment such as the Deep Trekker REVOLUTION ROV, and leads projects on coastal environments. His contributions enhance fisheries biology, marine biodiversity conservation, and ecosystem ecology through innovative technologies and interdisciplinary approaches.
