Biodiversity
assessment in new areas
|
The biodiversity
assessment team
applies an integrated approach to characterising and mapping
tropical marine biodiversity, and develops tools to enable
synthesis and recovery of extensive coral biodiversity data, to
support global coral reef management initiatives. The team’s
research focus is in areas that are poorly understood,
including the seabed of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area
and the Oceanic Shoals Bioregion which stretches across
Australia’s north, from the reefs of northern Western Australia
to Darwin. Much of the research of this team is conducted
below diveable depths.
