Funded Activity Summary

Cultural and Environmental Shifts in Late Holocene East Timor: Evidence for Climate Change? This project will address the NRP goal of responding to climate change and variability by advancing our knowledge and understanding of recent climate change in our region. An investigation of climate change, environmental impact and human adaptation in East Timor over the last 1000 years will improve our understanding of such issues in neighbouring tropical Australia. Our climate is already highly variable and we can expect future climate change to have significant influence both on Australia's environment and her communities. This project has policy development implications and will further enhance Australia's international reputation as a research base for environmental studies.
