We seek new knowledge and innovative solutions to the grand challenges of managing land, water and ecology in a sustainable way, at a time of significant societal and environmental change for our regions. Dynamic Landscapes undertakes high quality, internationally relevant research and knowledge translation at the industry, policy and community levels to inform evidence-based decision making and transformative practice to produce world-class research outcomes. Our research underpins our teaching practice in environmental and conservation science and engineering. Our activities are truly interdisciplinary, integrating terrestrial and aquatic ecology, climate and geotechnical modelling, limnology, hydrogeology, soil science, social science and the application of advanced digital technologies.
Landscape Restoration and Rehabilitation
