Widespread death of eucalypts has been observed in forested landscapes across Australia, including the alpine regions of Victoria, NSW and the ACT.

Developing machine learning algorithms to identify forest structural characteristics from earth observation data on a regional scale, Australia

The Fenner School has a number of projects that examine bushfires – how it behaves, its effects on the landscape and ecosystems, and how we can monitor and manage it in natural and built environments.

A variety of projects that can explore the genetics; growth and survival; or management of a wide range of rare and endangered tree species (including Wollemi Pine).

Informing the re-emergence of First Nations burning in contemporary endangered woodlands in south-eastern Australia

The main aim of this project is to examine the flammability of eucalypt tress from three different perspectives: their biochemical composition, their spectral response, and their combustion behaviour.
