SUSMB Coral Photogrammetry Project

As a part of the ongoing Sustainable Urban Seascapes Moreton Bay project, the Marine Paleoecology Lab has been sampling sites in Quandamooka (Moreton Bay, South East Queensland) using photogrammetry. To do this, we capture thousands of images of the benthos which we then stitch together to create 3D models of the reef. We then use […]

Current Research Projects in the Marine Palaeoecology Lab

Drivers and consequences of novel marine ecological communities Marine ecological communities are exhibiting rapid change in response to human actions. This project aims to apply a newly developed statistical framework and expects to uncover historical patterns in the emergence and persistence of new community states of two sets of marine taxa: reef-building coral, and marine […]

Pandolfi lab grabs BGI Australia 2017 Grant

Recent funding for ‘Managing regime shifts and fisheries collapse on the Great Barrier Reef – the role of ancient DNA’ was awarded from BGI Australia’s call for proposals on new research involving genomic applications in biodiversity and evolution. This research project will allow us to gain insight into the palaeoecology of reef organisms that do not leave […]

Eighteenth century nautical charts reveal coral loss

12 September 2017 Centuries-old nautical charts, mapped by long-deceased sailors to avoid shipwrecks, have been used by modern scientists to study loss of coral reefs. A new US and Australian study – including research from The University of Queensland and the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence in Coral Reef Studies – compared early British charts […]

Sub-tropical corals vulnerable, new study shows

28 August 2017 The vulnerability and conservation value of sub-tropical reefs south of the Great Barrier Reef – regarded as climate change refuges – has been highlighted in a new study. University of Queensland School of Biological Sciences researcher Dr Brigitte Sommer said the study of Eastern Australian reefs revealed coral species would likely shift their distribution southward in […]
