Lochie Cameron has devoted much of the first half of this year to monitoring and collecting valuable data related to a large, harmful algal bloom (HAB) that has infested the waters off South Australia.

His proactive work to help monitor this devastating harmful algal bloom is inspiring and heartwarming.

Not only has he contributed valuable information that scientists can use to minimise or prevent future harmful algal blooms, he has become an inspiration to young and old by his decision to do something about the disaster and not just leave it to someone else.
