Carden C. Wallace graduated with a first class degree in Science from the University of Queensland in 1970.〔 She gave birth to two sons in the 1970s. From 1970 to 1976 she was the curator of lower vertebrates at the Queensland Museum. She obtained her Ph.D. in 1979 at the University of Queensland. Wallace spent a brief period researching at the Australian Institute of Marine Science before researching Marine Biology from 1980 as a fellow at the James Cook University of North Queensland.〔
In 1984 Wallace and six others first reported that corals took part in mass spawning which they observed on the Great Barrier Reef in October/November.〔Harrison, P.L., Babcock, R.C., Bull, G.D., Oliver, J.K., Wallace, C.C., Willis, B.L., 1984. Mass Spawning in Tropical Reef Corals, ''Science'' 223, issue 4641, pp. 1186–1189 〕〔Babcock, R.C., Bull, G.D., Harrison, P.L., Heyward A.J., Oliver, J.K., Wallace, C.C., Willis, B.L. 1986. Synchronous spawnings of 105 scleractinian coral species on the Great Barrier Reef. ''Marine Biology'' 90, issue 3, pp. 379–394. 〕 Since they first observed reproductive synchrony in coral in Australia it has been observed in other countries, but at different times of the year. As a result, the team from James Cook University were awarded the Eureka Prize for Environmental Research in 1992.〔 This example of creatures synchronising their reproduction was novel and it was reported widely.
