Eucalyptus gomphocephela (tuart) decline in Western Australia

西澳大利亚州tuart森林的衰退和死亡是壮观的，广泛的，对生物多样性构成重大威胁。由于各种各样的土地使用压力，人们普遍感到关切并施加政治压力，但人们对这一问题的了解仍然很少，也没有补救行动。本项目将试图通过审查诱发因素（水文、盐度、营养、火灾）及其与病虫害的相互作用以及必要的补救行动来确定原因。在这些结果的基础上，提出一项行动计划，使土地管理者和社区团体能够阻止和扭转这种下降。

The decline and death of tuart forest in Western Australia is spectacular, widespread and a significant threat to biodiversity. There is widespread concern and political pressure because of diverse landuse pressures, yet it remains poorly understood and no remedial action is available. This project will attempt to determine the causes by examining predisposing factors (hydrological, salinity, nutrition, fire) and their interaction with pests and diseases, and the remedial actions necessary. On the basis of these results, propose an action plan so land managers and community groups can arrest and reverse tuart decline.
