Barry Brook's primary area of research is global ecology and conservation biology. He has published two authored books and over 100 scientific papers on various aspects of human impacts on the natural environment and biodiversity, including climate change, deforestation and overexploitation of populations.
In 2006, he was awarded both the Australian Academy of Science Fenner Medal for distinguished research in biology and the Edgeworth David Medal by the Royal Society of New South Wales, and in 2007, the H.G. Andrewartha Medal by the Royal Society of South Australia and was listed by Cosmos as one of Australia's top 10 young scientists. In March 2007 took up an appointment as the Foundation Sir Hubert Wilkins Chair (Professor) of Climate Change and Director of the Research Institute for Climate Change and Sustainability at the University of Adelaide.
