Restoration of Sydney's key habitat forming seaweed forests. This project aims to restore a key habitat forming-seaweed and its ecosystem, by integrating experimental ecology, population genetics, eco-engineering and restoration ecology. Habitat degradation causes worldwide loss of biodiversity and ecosystem function, increasingly needing active restoration of ecosystems. However, restoration efforts often lack the critical ecological understanding for success, largely ignore major habitats, and in marine systems rarely happen at the scale of the degradation. This innovative approach, could be adopted globally to restore these crucial marine habitats. Anticipated outcomes are the re-establishment of commercially harvestable resources and new tools for active conservation of critical marine habitats.

恢复悉尼的主要栖息地，形成海藻森林。本项目旨在通过整合实验生态学、种群遗传学、生态工程学和恢复生态学，对海藻及其生态系统进行恢复。生境退化导致世界范围内生物多样性和生态系统功能丧失，越来越需要积极恢复生态系统。然而，恢复工作往往缺乏成功的关键生态理解，在很大程度上忽视了主要的栖息地，在海洋系统中很少发生大规模的退化。这种创新的方法可以在全球范围内采用，以恢复这些重要的海洋栖息地。预期成果是重新建立可商业开采的资源和积极养护重要海洋生境的新工具。
