We are conducting research into how terrestrial ecosystems function.
TERI is a collaborative research initiative between three UWA groups:
- The Soil Biology Group which studies the impact of land management practices and climate on the activities of soil organisms, with particular interest in nutrient cycling processes.
- The Ecosystems Research Group which studies the ecological sustainability of natural ecosystems and their response to disturbance and environmental change.
- The Hydro-environmental Systems Group which studies the functional interrelations between hydrology, biogeochemistry and biota from the plot to the catchment scale to understand and predict the response of inland water ecosystems to variation in land-use practices and climatic forcing.
