Diving into deep-time: macroevolutionary patterns of aquatic tetrapods. This project aims to compare and contrast the broad-scale evolutionary patterns of the disparate lineages of aquatic tetrapod (e.g. whales, penguins, plesiosaurs). This project expects to generate new knowledge by utilising cutting-edge methods from several fields, e.g. three-dimensional scans, phylogenetic comparative methods and functional morphology. Expected outcomes include multiple high-quality publications and the development of new local and international collaborations. This will provide significant benefits, including revealing aquatic tetrapod evolution on an unprecedented scale and a better understanding of how some of Australia’s most iconic animals respond to global change, helping inform eco-tourism and conservation policies.

潜入深度：水生四足动物的宏观进化模式。该项目旨在比较和对比水生四足动物（例如鲸鱼，企鹅，plesiosaurs）的不同谱系的广泛进化模式。该项目希望通过利用来自几个领域的尖端方法来产生新知识，例如三维扫描，系统发育比较方法和功能形态。预期的结果包括多个高质量出版物以及新的本地和国际合作的发展。这将提供巨大的好处，包括以前所未有的规模揭示水生四足动物的进化，以及对澳大利亚一些最具标志性动物如何应对全球变化的反应，有助于为生态旅游和保护政策提供帮助。
