This project aims to monitor fish communities in nursery seascape, using a range of underwater camera technology. This enhances our understanding of the role habitats play in fish abundance and size.

Monitoring fish communities in nursery seascapes

Featured project

Native fish are vital to Australian waterways. They support ecosystem health and serve recreational, commercial, and cultural needs.

We monitor fish habitats and species in both freshwater and marine environments. This research monitors fish populations, tracks invasive fish species and helps understand fish communities.

Fish habitats

The surveys are part of a 25-year program tracking changes in fish communities at 42 Great Barrier Reef Islands.
