Correll, Raymond Leaty (Ray)   (fl. 1950s-2000s )

He did a BSc at University of Adelaide in 1963.

He did a MSc at University of Adelaide in 1968.

He was Senior Demonstrator at James Cook University of North Queensland in 1970.

He started his professional career as a quantitative plant ecologist working in the semi-arid zones of South Australia.

He then took a position at James Cook University in Townsville in biology but found he was doing more biology as a statistician than he was as an ecologist.

He undertook studies in statistics on a sabbatical leave and was offered a position as a consulting statistician in CSIRO in Adelaide – a position he held for over 30 years.

Since retiring from CSIRO he has been consulting as Rho Environmetrics.

Ray has a particular interest in sampling and his projects have included quarantine, water quality sampling and monitoring and soil diseases assessment.

He has given courses emphasising practical applications, including quarantine, water quality sampling and monitoring and soil diseases assessment.

His herbarium collections are from 1956 to 1973.
