Research stories
The Centre for Biodiversity Analysis shares research stories on genetics, evolution, and conservation, showcasing innovative projects in biodiversity science, species adaptation and environmental DNA analysis.
- Research story
Novel developments in genomics, bioinformatics and spatial ecology mean there has never been a more exciting time to be a biodiversity scientist.
- Research story
The Atlas of Living Australia is a collaborative, national project that aggregates biodiversity data from Australia’s academic, scientific and environmental communities and the general public and makes it available and usable online.
- Research story
The spatial analysis of biodiversity distribution patterns can help answer questions in conservation, biogeography and macroecology.
- Research story
Dr Angela McGaughran in adaptation and population genomics, and has a particular interest in understanding the ways in which natural populations respond to environmental change.
- Research story
A lizard's behaviour has the potential to expose it to selection, thereby impelling evolution, or to shield it from environmental variation, which can preclude evolution.
- Research story
Australia has unique biodiversity and amazing natural systems with which to test mechanisms driving diversification and speciation.
- Research story
The identification and location of climatic refugia is crucial for the conservation of biodiversity in the fate of ongoing global warming
- Academic profile
Biodiversity in freshwater ecosystems is under threat, difficult to monitor and underrepresented in biodiversity monitoring and conservation planning.
