Climate and Ecosystems

Climate and Ecosystems examines ocean processes at basin-wide scales, the role of ocean processes in climate change and the influence of oceanic environment on large marine ecosystems. This area links into ACE CRC research, with a focus on delivering environmental, economic and social value from Australia's engagement in Antarctica, and developing research skills on the dynamics of the role of oceans in the climate system and feedback from ecosystems to the climate system.
