This project aims to facilitate sustainable development in a fast-growing coastal region (Peel-Harvey, south-western Australia). By exploiting 30+ year data sets for this catchment-estuary system and integrating ecological, hydrological, biogeochemical, modelling and socio-economic expertise, this project seeks to link primary catchment drivers to estuarine health response (up to higher fauna), quantify estuarine ecological health and ecosystem services under historical and future scenarios, and test resilience across the human–natural system. Envisaged outcomes include evidence-based catchment planning solutions that optimise trade-offs between socio-economic development goals and minimal downstream impacts on estuarine health.

该项目旨在促进快速增长的沿海地区(澳大利亚西南部的皮尔哈维)的可持续发展。通过利用这一流域-河口系统30多年的数据集，并结合生态学、水文学、生物地质化学、模型和社会经济专业知识，该项目力求将主要流域驱动因素与河口健康反应联系起来(最高级动物)，量化历史和未来情景下的河口生态健康和生态系统服务，并测试整个人类-自然系统的复原力。设想的成果包括以证据为基础的集水规划解决方案，以优化社会经济发展目标和对河口健康的最小下游影响之间的权衡。
