CSIRO Sustainable Ecosystems (CSE) conducts research and development across a range of landscapes, targeting social, economic and environmental sustainability.

CSIRO is committed to the challenge of using science, combined with community and industry knowledge, to make sure that our ecosystems are sustainable for the long term prosperity of Australia.

Australian and US scientists have discovered how changes in winds blowing on the Southern Ocean drive variations in the depth of the surface layer of sea water responsible for regulating exchanges of heat and carbon dioxide between the ocean and the atmosphere.

Factors that influence extra-tropical rainfall depressions near Australia’s east coast need to be given more attention in modelling of both seasonal climate variability and long-term climate to improve rainfall predictions.

The theme of the International Mineral Processing Congress (IMPC) 2010 is 'Smarter Processing for the Future' and will feature the best in leading edge research and development.

CSIRO invites you to a range of free public seminars being held around Canberra.

CSIRO Entomology's research is helping to manage the increasing threat from invasive species and the benefits to agriculture from ecosystem services.

The Water for a Healthy Country Flagship is investigating how a changing climate and land use is impacting on Australia's future water security and developing scientific tools and knowledge to help water managers plan accordingly.

CSIRO's science provides tools to predict environmental flows necessary for sustaining ecosystem function.

Our environmental observation and landscape science research supports decision-making for natural resource management and investment. 

CSIRO researchers have been researching ways to use graphics processing units (GPUs) to speed up scientific computing. CSIRO researchers Dr John A Taylor and Dr Luke Domanski discuss this in this video. (2:38)

This two-minute video showcases CSIRO’s FLECK™ technology and Tasmanian company The Powercom Group who are commercialising it.

Meet Dr Darius Culvenor, who works across a broad range of remote sensing technologies and applications, helping to identify strategically important areas for new technology, skills and business development.

Dr Cedric Griffiths is a geologist with a fascination for using computers to predict what lies underground in the Earth’s strata.

This article from Farming Ahead contains three stories on the electric vehicle revolution, a detailed Digital Elevation Model of Australia’s topography, a Hendra virus breakthrough. (1 page)

In this book leading researchers critically review Australia's environmental management over the past decade.

This two-page document outlines the OzConverter software licence terms and conditions for OzConverter, a specialist tool developed by Dr Tom Harwood, to assist in preparing climate change scenario files from OzClim.
