This project represents an important opportunity to answer fundamental questions about the role of environmental changes in major mass extinction events in the geological past and to provide insight into the survival of modern marine species in response to climate change (National Research Priority 1). It will enhance Australia's global research profile in biostratigraphical and palaeontological research through contribution to the development of biozonations, correlation and global debate on extinction mechanisms. It will also strengthen international collaboration, and, importantly, provide crucial research training to young researchers in these fields.

该项目代表了一个重要的机会，以回答有关环境变化在地质学过去的主要大规模灭绝事件中的作用的基本问题，并提供对现代海洋物种生存的洞察力，以应对气候变化（国家研究优先事项1）。它将通过促进生物区系的发展、相互关系和关于灭绝机制的全球辩论，加强澳大利亚在生物地层学和古生物学研究方面的全球研究概况。它还将加强国际合作，重要的是，为这些领域的年轻研究人员提供重要的研究培训。
