Environmental and cultural change along the Central Murray River

该项目的目的是了解墨累-达令盆地（MDB）河流景观中的过去人们如何受到环境变化的影响并适应环境变化。这将通过一种新的跨学科方法来实现，该方法将最先进的古环境和考古方法相结合。MDB的土著居民一直与河流密切相关，然而，在人类居住期间，这些河流的流量可能会发生超过当今变化的变化。了解这些变化如何影响人类，为适应环境变化提供了线索，并有助于制定战略，与旱地固有的易变和脆弱的河流一起生活。

The aim of this project is to understand how past people in the riverine landscapes of the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) were influenced by and adapted to environmental change. This will be achieved using a novel cross-disciplinary approach combining state-of-the-art palaeoenvironmental and archaeological methods. Indigenous people of the MDB have always been closely linked to rivers, however, over the period of human habitation flows on these rivers were likely subject to changes that exceeded present-day variability. Understanding how these changes have impacted humans, offers clues on adaption to environmental change and aids in developing strategies for living with the inherently variable and vulnerable rivers in drylands.
