Humans have converted land into urban and agricultural areas, as well as intentionally or accidentally introduced species into aquatic systems. Estuaries and rivers are some of the most degraded systems on earth and fishes are among the most endangered vertebrates worldwide. We will utilise novel modelling techniques to provide predictive models that investigate fish-environment relationships. We will also investigate impacts of trout introductions on native fish including dietary, competitive and assemblage level changes to the system. Essential data for the sustainable management of freshwater and estuarine systems will be obtained, which will lead to an environmentally sustainable Australia.

人类将土地转变为城市和农业区，并有意或无意地将物种引入水生系统。河口和河流是地球上退化最严重的系统，鱼类是世界上最濒危的脊椎动物之一。我们将利用新的建模技术提供预测模型，调查鱼类与环境的关系。我们还将调查鳟鱼引进对本地鱼类的影响，包括饮食，竞争和组合水平的变化系统。将获得淡水和河口系统可持续管理的基本数据，这将导致一个环境可持续的澳大利亚。
