Clean potable water is one of the most important resources for human health and a successful economy. Increasingly, subterranean aquifers are used for storage and recovery of water. These aquifers contain dynamic ecosystems, but little is known about species composition or about the importance of the presence of various species for water quality. We will use the latest laboratory techniques and DNA identification methods to provide a template for determining ground water diversity and food web dynamics throughout Australia. This project will lead to a better understanding of how to manage ground water in a sustainable manner.

清洁的饮用水是人类健康和成功经济的最重要资源之一。地下含水层越来越多地被用来储存和回收水。这些含水层含有动态生态系统，但对物种组成或各种物种的存在对水质的重要性知之甚少。我们将使用最新的实验室技术和DNA鉴定方法，为确定澳大利亚各地地下水多样性和食物网动态提供模板。该项目将使人们更好地了解如何以可持续的方式管理地下水。
