Research Programs
The Blue Carbon Labs’ in-house expertise spans ecology, biogeochemistry, microbiology, environmental economics, modeling and mapping/remote sensing. Our research is divided into 6 major programs:
Wetland Carbon
Managing coastal and freshwater wetlands for maximum carbon sequestration.
Ecosystem Restoration
Preparing and adapting to the impacts of the climate change and urban development on our wetlands.
Citizen Science
Empowering communities to fight climate change, while contributing to Blue Carbon research.
Marine Biosecurity
Preventing and responding from pests and diseases that threaten Australia’s marine environment.
Ecosystem Services
Quantifying the value of wetland ecosystems services to support smart decision making and investments.
Decommissioning of O&G infrastructure
Optimal environmental outcomes for decommissioning of obsolete offshore oil and gas infrastructure.
