He developed the concept of a carbon budget: the amount of CO2 that is emitted and absorbed in the global ecosystem in the course of one year. His early research was concerned with the processes by which matter and energy, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2), moved through tree canopies. His work on the quantification of this CO2 was central to his later research. Raupach became a member of the scientific steering committee of Biospheric Aspects of the Hydrological Cycle core project of International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) which looked at turbulent fluxes near the land surface, boundary-layer budgeting and water balance at broader scales. In 2001 he helped establish the Global Carbon Project (GCP) international collaborative effort to understand and address issues of climate change. He was a contributing author to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fourth Assessment Report (Working Group 1). After a career of over 35 years at CSIRO, Raupach became Director of the Climate Change Institute at the Australian National University in 2014. 1971 1971 Education - Bachelor of Science (BSc), University of Adelaide 1977 1978 Career position - Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of Meteorology, University of Edinburgh 1979 Career position - Research Scientist, CSIRO Centre of Environmental Mechanics 1986 1986 Career position - Visiting Lecturer, Department of Meteorology, University of Reading, United Kingdom 1987 1987 Award - A.
