Five years of hard work, finally published with @SpringerNature in @ScientificData: The Antarctic Ecosystem Inventory, a dataset of Antarctic Ecosystems in ice-free lands. A massive thank you to the international team that made this possible. @CES_UNSW nature.com/articles/s4159…

A recently published in @Nature Food, led by Prof. @DJ_Eldridge, reveals a strong positive relationship between dung presence and grazing pressure. Dung records have been used to create high-res maps of herbivore distribution around the world. unsw.edu.au/newsroom/news/…

@kamingock shares exciting details on the partnership driving large scale ecosystem restoration @tarongazoo @UNSW @nswdcceew

@OryxTheJournal @redlisteco @CES_UNSW A sad story that needs to be told, as it provides insights and lessons for other ecosystems facing similar risks. @jrfep et al. from @unswbees @CES_UNSW document the imminent collapse of a tropical glacier in #Venezuela. @redlisteco @IUCN_CEM @andradep2010

A study led by UNSW Dr @kate_cornelsen has gathered vital insights from greater bilbies at Taronga Western Plains Zoo into how bilbies would cope if reintroduced to temperate areas. Read more about the surprising bilby behaviour uncovered in this research: unsw.edu.au/newsroom/news/…
