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: estuarine and nearshore ecosystems – assessing alternative adaptive management strategies for the management of estuarine and coastal ecosystems

Australia estuarine and nearshore environments (E&NEs) support important biodiversity and fisheries values and ecosystem functions. E&NEs are already heavily impacted by changes in land (e.g. urbanisation and agriculture) and water use (e.g. extraction). These pressures will be exacerbated by...

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: vulnerability of an iconic Australian finfish (barramundi, Lates calcarifer) and related industries to altered climate across tropical Australia

Tropical Australia is a region impacted upon by complex climate patterns, including monsoonal intra-year variability in rainfall and evaporation rate, mid-latitude seasonal oscillations, intra-annual fluctuations in the Madden Julian Oscillation, as well as longer global climate impacts such as the...

Climate change

Climate change is impacting estuarine and marine fisheries, and biodiversity and extreme climate variability events have been well documented. Climate change is a significant concern for fishers and the communities that depend on fisheries for their livelihoods, as Australia’s oceans generate...
