Can novel seismic survey sources mitigate potential impacts to fisheries?

This project aims to alleviate tensions between the fishing industry and proponents of 3D Marine Seismic Surveys (MSS), used by the petroleum industry to locate potential oil and gas deposits. It will test new seismic sources or ways of using current sources to mitigate potential impacts on marine animals, by assessing their impact on the commercial scallop and the southern rock lobster.

Validation and implementation of an early warning system to reduce smoke impacts from prescribed burns and bushfires on agricultural industries in Victoria

This project will develop a fully integrated network of air quality sensors to provide real-time data on smoke dose and the risk of smoke taint in winegrapes. Accurate prediction of the doses which cause smoke taint will enable the emergency sector to organise and conduct planned burns more effectively and with less risk to agricultural industries, particularly the wine industry.
