Colin D. Woodroffe is an Australasian geographer and coastal geomorphologist currently serving as Professorial Fellow at the University of Wollongong. He is the Coordinator of the GeoQuEST Research Centre. His international research focuses on the morphology, stratigraphy and sedimentary dynamics of tropical and subtropical coasts, and the application of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) to the study of processes and change in the coastal zone. He has researched the following: * Morphodynamics of estuaries and deltas * Reef morphology and sedimentation * Coral paleoclimatology and ocean circulation * Reef island evolution and climate change In 2007, he was admitted to Doctor of Science at Cambridge University. ==Publications== * Woodroffe, C.D., B.
