Australia has an enviable reputation as a leading innovator in geochronological studies and this research will reinforce that standing. The outcomes will have an immediate and significant impact on studies of global climate change, and provide new insights into the evolution of Australia's unique fossil mammal fauna. In these ways, and as described in more detail elsewhere in the application, this project addresses directly our current national research priorities 'responding to climate change and variability' and 'the sustainable use of Australia's biodiversity'.

澳大利亚作为地质年代学研究的领先创新者享有令人羡慕的声誉，这项研究将加强这一地位。研究结果将对全球气候变化的研究产生直接而重大的影响，并为澳大利亚独特的哺乳动物化石群的演变提供新的见解。通过这些方式，并在其他地方的应用程序中更详细地描述，该项目直接解决我们目前的国家研究重点“应对气候变化和变异性”和“澳大利亚的生物多样性的可持续利用”。
