Research Programs
The Blue Carbon Labs’ in-house expertise spans ecology, biogeochemistry, microbiology, environmental economics, modeling and mapping/remote sensing. You can explore our major programs below:
BLUE CARBON
Managing coastal wetlands for maximum carbon sequestration.
TEAL CARBON
Quantifying the carbon sink capacity of freshwater wetlands and identifying management practices to mitigate carbon emissions.
CITIZEN SCIENCE
Empowering communities to fight climate change, while contributing to Blue Carbon research.
ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION
Preparing and adapting to the impacts of the climate change and urban development on our wetlands.
MARINE BIOSECURITY
Preventing and responding from pests and diseases that threaten Australia’s marine environment.
NATURAL CAPITAL
Quantifying the value of wetland ecosystems services to support smart decision making and investments.
DECOMMISSIONING O&G INFRASTRUCTURE
Optimal environmental outcomes for decommissioning of obsolete offshore oil and gas infrastructure.
MICROPLASTICS
Quantifying the sequestration of microplastics in Australia’s coastal wetlands and modelling their impacts.
