This project aims to quantify the species traits and environmental conditions that enable wildlife to persist in an increasingly urbanised world. Through developing and testing a framework linking unprecedented urban expansion and biodiversity change, this project will identify favourable conditions that support biodiversity in the face of global urbanisation. Project outcomes will inform appropriate real-world management actions and equip scientists, policy-makers and planners with tools to forecast the persistence of biodiversity in Australian cities. By discovering the attributes species need to survive city life this project will help prevent future catastrophic declines of global biodiversity in our increasingly urbanised world.

该项目旨在量化使野生动物能够在日益城市化的世界中生存的物种特征和环境条件。通过开发和测试一个将前所未有的城市扩张和生物多样性变化联系起来的框架，该项目将确定在全球城市化进程中支持生物多样性的有利条件。项目成果将为适当的实际管理行动提供信息，并为科学家、决策者和规划者提供预测澳大利亚城市生物多样性持久性的工具。通过发现物种在城市生活中生存所需的属性，该项目将有助于防止未来全球生物多样性在我们日益城市化的世界中灾难性的下降。
