Funded Activity Summary

Monitoring coral reef health from space: how herbivore behaviour alters reef structure. This research seeks to understand how both fishing and marine reserves can shape coral reef landscapes by changing the way herbivores behave while foraging for food. It will use an innovative approach combining ecological theory with satellite imagery, resulting in a predictive tool for resource managers both in Australia and globally.
