Australia’s national science agency has called on citizens to record koala sightings to help build the most accurate national population count of the iconic marsupial. The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) on Thursday encouraged Australians across the country to actively take part in koala conservation by recording sightings on the Koala Spotter smartphone […]
Australia is renowned for its native flora and fauna, but did you know the continent is also home to about 3,000 “alien” species of animals, plants, fungi and microbes? Alien species are those brought by humans to areas they do not naturally occur in. These intruders are Australia’s leading cause of biodiversity loss and species extinction. They also cost the […]
The World Wide Fund for Nature-Australia today released new video which shows the world heritage status of the Great Barrier Reef is seriously threatened after this year’s mass bleaching. Severely bleached coral on a reef in Queensland’s north is dead and covered in brown algae and slime. Authorities are still assessing the scale of reef-wide […]
The Paris Agreement is an international accord aimed at mitigating climate change by limiting global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius and pursuing efforts to limit it to 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels. In relation to Australia’s climate targets, the nation has committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 26-28% below 2005 levels […]
One of Australia’s most remote coral reef systems has escaped the brunt of a recent global heat stress event that hit other marine ecosystems hard, although scientists still hold concerns for its future. The Ashmore and Scott reefs, north of Broome in Western Australia’s Kimberley region, are closer to Indonesia than the mainland. Higher than typical sea surface […]
Bigger. Greener. Teeming with exotic life. This is what Australia looked like 75,000 years ago. And when the first hunter-gatherers crossed the narrow strait from East Timor – then at the tip of a much larger Southeast Asian landmass – they found a land unlike any other they had previously experienced. It was inhabited by […]
A group of leading marine scientists have written to Prime Minister Albanese with an urgent plea to heed the science and reject new coal and gas projects for the sake of the world’s coral reefs. The letter, signed by 14 international and Australian marine and climate scientists – including IPCC authors – draws attention to […]
A South Australian farmer trying to protect his chickens has caught a spotted quoll – a species not recorded in the state for over 130 years. Pao Ling Tsai lost one of his chickens to a predator earlier this week but managed to take some photographs of the animal before it escaped. Unsure of what […]
NASA’s nearly 33-year-old observatory still has plenty of top science to do, and astronomers want to extend its lifetime. Once the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) began operations last year, the comparisons began. Astronomers and others online posted side-by-side images of the same celestial objects captured by JWST and the Hubble Space Telescope, pointing out how […]
