WHAT WE ARE ABOUT

Our Vision

To understand and respond to the impacts of global change on freshwater, coastal, and ocean ecosystems.

 

Our Mission

To offer innovative research solutions aiding to help mitigate climate change and enhance our blue economy, while simultaneously supporting aquatic biodiversity, economic growth, capacity building, and community wellbeing.

 

Our History

Blue Carbon Lab was founded in 2014 by Professor Peter Macreadie to understand and respond to the impacts of global change on freshwater, coastal and ocean ecosystems. Between 2016 and 2024, Blue Carbon Lab was located at Deakin where Peter held the position of Professor of Marine Science. In 2024, Blue Carbon Lab relocated to RMIT along with Peter and many of the senior members of the Blue Carbon Lab team. Other team members, industry partners and collaborators are located across Australia and around the world. Blue Carbon Lab is a multi-disciplinary team of approximately 40 researchers offering innovative research solutions to mitigating climate change and enhancing our blue economy.

Our strategic intent

Research that makes a difference

Our research meets environmental and community needs and delivers measurable benefits.

Innovation

We strive to be innovative in our thinking, technology and the solutions that we develop.

Partnerships
