We’re working to discover, enhance and sustain marine ecosystems and maximise the benefits from Australia’s marine territory.
The southern parts of Australia are expected to become increasingly dry due to climate change. Yet, we now find ourselves subject to another La Niña event. What’s going on?
Our team on research vessel Investigator is using virtual technologies to put people into places, roles and experiences not otherwise possible.
Marine heatwaves are catastrophic impacts of climate change many of us are already familiar with. But how much do they cost society?
Scientists studying a remote volcanic island have found it plays an important role in feeding a hungry ocean.
A new action plan assesses the extinction risk for Australian sharks making it easier to protect them.
It's hard to forget the harrowing bushfires of the 2019-20 summer. The destruction on land was evident but the bushfires had a surprising positive effect on the ocean.
Litter hotspots were associated with socioeconomic factors such as a concentration of built infrastructure, less national wealth and the level of lighting at night.
A new analysis, using 15 years of autonomous underwater measurements and simulations from the latest global climate models, refined our estimate of future ocean warming and sea level rise.
Supporting Bergmann’s Rule, we found temperature predicts marine copepod size. This could influence the amount of food available for fish.
Scientists on our research vessel (RV) Investigator are uncovering the denizens of the deep that lurk in the ocean far beneath the waves.
Using data from a seal tagging program, our researchers have generated the first detailed oceanographic observations of the continental shelf in Vincennes Bay, East Antarctica.
A disease not seen in Australia’s wild abalone population for 11 years has resurfaced, and it’s a massive challenge for our abalone industry.
