Seagrass meadows sustain marine biodiversity and the fishing industries on Australian coasts. Dredging of ports and shipping channels is contributing to their rapid global decline. The project will use state-of-the-art technologies in bio-optics and genomics to create a toolkit for seagrass managers to make informed decisions to safeguard seagrass meadows.

海草草甸维持着澳大利亚海岸的海洋生物多样性和渔业。对港口和航运通道的疏浚是造成全球海洋污染迅速减少的原因之一。该项目将利用生物光学和基因组学方面的最新技术，为海草管理人员创建一个工具包，以便他们做出明智的决定，保护海草草地。
