Conservation Science

The Conservation Science research group at Deakin University

Our research focusses on solving problems in biodiversity conservation and environmental management. We have broad research interests, including measuring change in biodiversity, predicting the impacts of change, and making conservation decisions. Much of our work is at the ecosystem level, including ecosystem services and the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems. Headed by Emily Nicholson, we are based in the School of Life and Environmental Sciences and Centre for Integrative Ecology at Deakin University.
