Environmental DNA: Integration of new methods to enhance marine management. This project aims to develop new environmental DNA (eDNA)-based methods of managing humanity’s impact on valuable marine resources. eDNA preserved in seawater provides a lens to study and monitor marine biota and ecosystems. This project will work with fisheries managers and the environmental consulting sector, and focus on sites in the Kimberley, Cocos-Keeling Islands, Fremantle and Deep-sea oil/gas sites to demonstrate the value of eDNA methods in best-practice monitoring. A multi-proxy toolkit (including eDNA) that can audit and baseline marine biota could make balancing conservation and sustainable exploitation achievable. Anticipated outcomes are improved management and monitoring of fisheries, ports and offshore oil/gas sites.

环境DNA：采用新方法加强海洋管理。该项目旨在开发新的基于环境DNA（eDNA）的方法，以管理人类对宝贵海洋资源的影响。保存在海水中的eDNA为研究和监测海洋生物群和生态系统提供了一个透镜。该项目将与渔业管理人员和环境咨询部门合作，重点关注金伯利、科科斯-基林群岛、弗里曼特尔和深海石油/天然气地点，以展示eDNA方法在最佳做法监测中的价值。一个可以审计和基线海洋生物区系的多代理工具包（包括eDNA）可以使平衡养护和可持续开发成为可能。预期成果是改善对渔业、港口和近海石油/天然气地点的管理和监测。
