The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Nature-based solutions for shoreline protection through ecosystem restoration are increasingly being considered by foreshore managers.

Nature-based solutions for shoreline protection through ecosystem restoration are increasingly being considered by foreshore managers. However, habitat restoration efforts are greatly hampered by the time it takes to fully revegetate an area. This project aims to develop a comprehensive understanding of wave interaction with bioengineered structures that provide shelter from wave impacts and promote revegetation and contribute to shoreline flood and erosion mitigation. Expected outcomes of this project include quantitative design guidelines and predictive tools that will help foreshore managers to develop more robust and cost-effective nature-based shoreline protection strategies.
