Optimal management of threatened amphibian metapopulations in urbanising landscapes

该项目将能够为澳大利亚和国际上受到栖息地丧失和碎片化威胁的许多物种确定最佳管理战略。我们的研究将有助于濒危咆哮草蛙的恢复，并推动澳大利亚增长最快的城市边缘湿地生物多样性的保护。我们制定的管理方法和具体建议都将有助于实现一个环境可持续的澳大利亚的目标。该项目将扩大澳大利亚解决保护问题的能力，并将促进城市环境中的生物多样性，造福于人类居民。

This project will enable the identification of optimal management strategies for many species threatened by the loss and fragmentation of their habitat, both in Australia and internationally. Our research will contribute to the recovery of the endangered Growling Grass Frog, and drive the conservation of wetland biodiversity on the fringe of Australia's fastest growing city. Both the methods and specific recommendations for management that we develop will contribute to the goal of an environmentally-sustainable Australia. This project will expand Australia's capacity to solve conservation problems, and will promote biological diversity in urban environments, to the benefit of their human inhabitants.
