His baccalaureate degree, conferred in 1977, majored in geology and physical geography at the University of Windsor, Canada. He received his PhD in environmental geoscience from the University of Adelaide in 2001, after tutoring there in 1992-1995 in earth science & physical geography. He researches mainly on remediation of polluted land, water and air. His previous books, titled ""Geobiotechnological Solutions to Anthropogenic Disturbances"" and ""Confronting Global Climate Change: Experiments & Applications in the Tropics"" were published respectively in 2016 by Springer-Nature and 2019 by CRC-Taylor & Francis. Professor Harris has been the senior author of approximately 30 research articles, having become, so far, the only multiple recipients of the NCU Distinguished Faculty Award for research or scholarship, having won it four times, in 2003, 2007, 2012 and 2016.
