We have a new book coming out soon!
Rebuilding an Ecosystem: Integrating Applied Research and Restoration explores how ecological research informs restoration through the long-term Mulligans Flat–Goorooyarroo Woodland Experiment, drawing on 20 years of collaboration to highlight key challenges, successes, and best practices.
PhD candidate Sho Rapley has published one of the chapters of her thesis!
She studied how detection dogs dramatically improve the recovery of lost wildlife GPS devices—finding them faster, more reliably, and more cost-effectively than human searches, offering a practical breakthrough for wildlife tracking and conservation research.
Congratulations Sho!
