This project aims to investigate the impact of within species adaptation to climate on restoratoin success in the Australian Wet Tropics. For a suite of six species of tropical tree frequently employed in rainforest restoration plantings in northeast Queensland, this project aims to test the hypothesis that collecting seed from populations in similar ecoclimatic settings to the planting site will result in superior seedling growth and survival. The expected outcome is to provide practical advice to restoration practitioners about the importance of matching the provenance of seed source to planting sites, and opportunities for selecting provenances pre-adapted to predicted future climatic conditions at planting sites.

该项目旨在调查物种内对气候的适应对澳大利亚湿热带地区恢复成功的影响。对于昆士兰东北部雨林恢复种植中经常使用的六种热带树木，该项目旨在测试从与种植地点相似的生态气候环境中的种群中收集种子将导致更好的幼苗生长和存活的假设。预期的结果是向恢复从业者提供实用的建议，告诉他们种子来源与种植地点相匹配的重要性，以及选择预先适应种植地点未来气候条件的种源的机会。
