Hotter, wetter, and drier. Already a place of extreme environmental conditions, the Northern Territory faces further challenges in a changing climate.
We have been working on a new-look website for CSIRO’s GISERA and it’s now live.
The subterranean secrets of the Canning Basin in Western Australia are about to be revealed with the establishment of a new, highly sensitive seismic monitoring system.
Researchers from CSIRO, Australia’s leading science agency, Charles Darwin University and LaTrobe University have been recognised for revealing the dark and secret lives of stygofauna in the Northern Territory.
Research by CSIRO’s GISERA shows soil microbial communities are the key component of bio-degradative processes and decomposition and represent a primary pathway for the chemical contaminants from onshore gas activities to be removed from the environment.
A baseline knowledge of the biodiversity of a region is an essential component for assessing the risk of any potential future development scenarios.
