Funded Activity Summary

Understanding faunal responses to climate change and environmental perturbations through the Quaternary in north-eastern Australia. To understand life, it is essential to know its history; and to conserve biodiversity into the future, it is essential to learn lessons from the past. This project will use information from the fossil record to identify climate- and human-forced threats to the environment and fully understand the adaptive response of native fauna to climate change.
