Biodiversity in high rainfall mediterranean-climate ecosystems: Integrating fields of ecological enquiry to achieve improved conservation outcomes

该项目的目标是通过管理和保护澳大利亚的陆地生物多样性，并通过增加对气候变化和变异在地方到区域一级的影响的了解，实现“环境上可持续的澳大利亚”的研究优先事项。通过将类似气候区域的不同数据集联系起来，并通过与管理机构的直接联系，该项目将促进景观保护文化的发展，以改善保护成果，并通过基于科学的适应性管理更直接地使用信息。有效利用现有数据，并通过将全球视角与当地保护需求联系起来，“促进创新文化和经济”，是该项目的标志。

This project targets research priority 'An Environmentally Sustainable Australia' through the management and protection of Australia's terrestrial biodiversity, and by increasing understanding of the impact of climate change and variability at the local to regional level. By linking disparate data sets across similar climatic regions, and through direct links to management agencies, this project will enable development of a landscape conservation culture for improved conservation outcomes, and more direct information use through science-based adaptive management. Efficient use of existing data and the 'promotion of an innovation culture and economy' by linking global perspectives to local conservation needs, are hallmarks of this project.
