The decline and death of tuart forest in Western Australia is spectacular, widespread and a significant threat to biodiversity. There is widespread concern and political pressure because of diverse landuse pressures, yet it remains poorly understood and no remedial action is available. This project will attempt to determine the causes by examining predisposing factors (hydrological, salinity, nutrition, fire) and their interaction with pests and diseases, and the remedial actions necessary. On the basis of these results, propose an action plan so land managers and community groups can arrest and reverse tuart decline.

西澳大利亚州tuart森林的衰退和死亡是壮观的，广泛的，对生物多样性构成重大威胁。由于各种土地使用压力，人们普遍感到关切和政治压力，但人们对这一问题仍然知之甚少，也没有采取补救行动。该项目将试图通过审查诱发因素（水文、盐度、营养、火）及其与病虫害的相互作用以及必要的补救行动来确定原因。在这些结果的基础上，提出一个行动计划，使土地管理者和社区团体可以阻止和扭转图瓦特下降。
