More than 85 per cent of Australians live less than 50 kilometres from the coast. We’re providing Australian governments, industries and communities with knowledge, tools and integrated approaches to manage their expanding coastal footprint.
Effective conservation and management of the Great Barrier Reef depends on quality science and integrated decision-making.
We’re working to better understand the capacity of coral reefs to recover from natural and human impacts and how science can help reef systems regenerate.
CSIRO researchers in partnership with The University of Western Australia are conducting the first regionals-scale assessment of marine biodiversity in the Pilbara region, in northern Western Australia.
The Kimberley is a beautiful and remote region of tropical north-western Australia. The marine ecosystems of this region are very productive and support a high diversity of habitats and species. To assist decision-makers in government, industry and indigenous organisations tasked with the job of looking after the Kimberley, CSIRO is involved in research projects that will improve knowledge of the Kimberley’s marine environment.
We are collaborating on a series of projects that will see the development of methods and guidelines for offshore carbon capture and storage (CCS) monitoring, using world-class research technologies.
We are working with Chilean agencies to help the Chilean aquaculture industry improve its long term sustainability after a series of challenges over the past decade.
CSIRO’s Coastal Carbon Cluster will foster vital scientific research to strengthen our low carbon economy and prevent future excessive greenhouse gas emissions.
The Coastal Collaboration Cluster – a major three-year research program – is developing approaches to better connect science with the needs of governments, communities and industries to meet coastal challenges.
Our scientists are combining decades of knowledge in oil spill response with advanced research to provide the multidisciplinary expertise and technology to mitigate, manage and monitor marine incidents.
