This project investigates how climate change is altering the phenology, plant diversity, and airborne pollen exposure in Australia's highly productive dry grasslands. The project is expected to answer key questions on shifting grasslands and grass pollen relationships with grass phenology and diversity by merging satellite analysis of phenology with seasonal airborne pollen measures of grass concentrations and diversity. Expected outcomes of this project will be better management options to safeguard allergy sufferers and improved ecological and pollen forecasts under climate change and extreme events. This project should provide important public health benefits and disease mitigation strategies to Australia's urban and remote areas.

该项目调查了气候变化如何改变澳大利亚高产干旱草原的物候、植物多样性和空气传播的花粉暴露。 该项目预计将通过将物候学卫星分析与草浓度和多样性的季节性空气传播花粉测量相结合，回答关于变化的草地和草花粉与草物候学和多样性的关系的关键问题。 该项目的预期成果将是更好的管理选择，以保护过敏患者，并改善气候变化和极端事件下的生态和花粉预测。该项目将为澳大利亚的城市和偏远地区提供重要的公共卫生福利和减轻疾病的战略。
