This ARC proposal is central to the goals of National Research Priority #1 – An environmentally sustainable Australia. The loss of biodiversity in agricultural landscapes in rural Australia is a major social, economic and ecological issue. Australian governments and local communities invest considerable money restoring temperate woodlands in agricultural landscapes. However, there remains considerable uncertainty about the effectiveness of this investment. This project will produce an unparalleled evidence-base for individuals and organisations that make long-term investments in these landscapes for conservation.Read moreRead less
From environmental monitoring to management: extracting knowledge about environmental events from sensor data. New, high-detail sources of environmental sensor data are useless without new methods for identifying patterns and extracting knowledge from that data. This project will develop improved techniques for interacting with environmental sensor data to assist environmental scientists and manager in understand the important events that are occurring.
