The Australian Botanic Garden Mount Annan includes endangered Cumberland Plain Woodland, a regionally-important haven for native wildlife. Managing the native woodlands, grasslands and open space areas is essential to maintain habitat and support healthy fauna populations.
The science of ecology is about understanding the interactions of living organisms with each other and with their environment.
Using innovative systematics methods, we document morphology, geographic distribution, and evolutionary history using taxonomy, phylogenomics, and macroevolution.
Now consider the processes of pollination, seed dispersal and predation in the context of the life cycle, as well as ongoing processes such as seasonality and aging.
