FRDC-DCCEE: changing currents in marine biodiversity governance and management: responding to climate change

Australia’s marine systems and biota are known to be exposed to a range of likely impacts from human-induced climate change: ocean acidification, warming sea surface temperatures, rise in sea level, increases in cyclone intensities, changes in rainfall and run-off of land-based pollutants and...

FRDC-DCCEE: human adaptation options to increase resilience of conservation-dependent seabirds and marine mammals impacted by climate change

This application was developed to address a research priority in the Marine NARP. In putting together the Marine Report Card (www.oceansclimatechange.org) released in 2009, it was apparent that climate impacts and adaptation options were not being widely or consistently considered for marine birds...

FRDC-DCCEE: ensuring that the Australian Oyster Industry adapts to a changing climate: a natural resource and industry spatial information portal for knowledge action and informed adaptation frameworks

During the last decades, the oyster industry has been competing with increasing activity in the coastal catchment areas for space on land and in water, and has suffered from decreasing water quality and increasing extent of disease outbreaks. To date, the industry has persisted within the natural...

FRDC-DCCEE: beach and surf tourism and recreation in Australia: vulnerability and adaptation

The research team has significant experience in working with coastal decision makers and stakeholders at the Local, State and National levels. Discussions with these groups identified a clear need for greater availability of information to facilitate selection of adaptation responses to projected...

FRDC-DCCEE: a climate change adaptation blueprint for coastal regional communities

This application was developed to address the Marine Biodiversity and Resources National Adaptation Research Plan. Specifically it recognises the need to provide a framework to link science to policy including the socio-ecological responses that identify climate change driven adaptation responses...

FRDC-DCCEE: effects of climate change on reproduction, larval development, and population growth of coral trout (Plectropomus spp.)

Climate change is emerging as the single greatest threat to coral-reef ecosystems and reef-associated fishes (Munday et al. 2008 - Fish and Fisheries, Pratchett et al. 2008 - Oceanogr Mar Biology Ann Rev). Munday et al. (2008) reviewed direct effects of climate changes (e.g., ocean warming,...

FRDC-DCCEE: preadapting a Tasmanian coastal ecosystem to ongoing climate change through reintroduction of a locally extinct species

Over the last 10 years, concern has been mounting over the increased incidence of mainland marine species moving south and establishing residence in Tasmania. This is widely interpreted as an early result of climate change, in particular because the increased southerly penetration of the eddy field...

FRDC-DCCEE: management implications of climate change impacts on fisheries resources of northern Australia

This application was developed in response to the widely recognised concern that climate change will result in changes to marine life and ecosystems, and hence fisheries, throughout Australia (Hobday 2008) with tropical marine ecosystems in northern Australia identified as being particularly...

Seafood CRC: maximising value by reducing stress-related mortality in wild harvested abalone

This project addresses the problem of post-harvest mortality in wild caught abalone, a problem which has been attributed to stress facilitated by a number of factors including; harvest practices, practices during transport from the reef to the processor, and the time of the year (influence of...
