The aim of this project is to understand how past people in the riverine landscapes of the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) were influenced by and adapted to environmental change. This will be achieved using a novel cross-disciplinary approach combining state-of-the-art palaeoenvironmental and archaeological methods. Indigenous people of the MDB have always been closely linked to rivers, however, over the period of human habitation flows on these rivers were likely subject to changes that exceeded present-day variability. Understanding how these changes have impacted humans, offers clues on adaption to environmental change and aids in developing strategies for living with the inherently variable and vulnerable rivers in drylands.

该项目的目的是了解过去在墨累-达令盆地（MDB）河流景观中的人们是如何受到环境变化的影响并适应环境变化的。这将通过结合最先进的古环境和考古方法的新颖跨学科方法来实现。MDB的土著人民一直与河流密切相关，然而，在人类居住期间，这些河流的流量可能会受到超过当今变化的变化。了解这些变化是如何影响人类的，为适应环境变化提供了线索，并有助于制定与干旱地区内在多变和脆弱的河流共存的策略。
