Urbanisation is a principal threat to the conservation of biodiversity worldwide. Information on the response of plants and animals to an increasingly urbanized world is essential to prevent the loss of natural assets, ensure environmental sustainability and promote human health and well-being. This research will combine extensive field surveys with state-of-the art modeling to identify their ecological requirements. Importantly, the research will engage with local councils, park managers and community organizations to educate the wider community and ensure research outcomes are adopted. The study design will ensure that the findings are applicable to other urban areas across Australia and around the world.

城市化是全球生物多样性保护面临的主要威胁。关于动植物对日益城市化的世界作出反应的信息对于防止自然资产的损失、确保环境的可持续性以及促进人类健康和福祉至关重要。这项研究将结合广泛的实地调查和最先进的模型来确定它们的生态需求。重要的是，这项研究将与地方议会、公园管理者和社区组织合作，以教育更广泛的社区，并确保研究成果被采用。研究设计将确保研究结果适用于澳大利亚和世界各地的其他城市地区。
