This year marks Landcare’s 30th year in assisting farming and conservation agendas to move together to progress sustainable practice in agro-ecological landscapes. Landcare was originally launched by Prime Minister Bob Hawke and bought together thousands of Landcare groups. Today, tens-of-thousands of Landcare volunteers are active in the protection of Australia’s environment and in promotion of […]
There are many ways in which human activities can negatively affect marine environments, as we discuss in our new paper published in the journal Scientific Reports. We use the oceans to support industry (e.g. fishing, shipping, tourism) as well as for recreation (e.g. boating, fishing, diving, beach activities). The things we do on land can […]
Associate Professor Ivan Nagelkerken, Professor Sean Connell, Tullio Rossi and Jennifer Pistevos from the University of Adelaide were involved in an article published in the journal Biology Letters, entitled, “Lost at sea: ocean acidification undermines larval fish orientation via altered hearing and marine soundscape modification.” Their research highlights future complications for fish due to stresses […]
Climate change is creating stress on ecosystems globally, including in our oceans. University of Adelaide research shows that these stresses are affecting fish. Associate Professor Ivan Nagelkerken spoke with Sue Reece from Radio Adelaide about his research into the impacts of ocean acidification on fish. Listen to the full interview.
The ability of baby fish to find a home, or other safe haven, to grow into adulthood will be severely impacted under predicted ocean acidification, University of Adelaide research has found. Published today in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, the researchers report the interpretation of normal ocean sound cues which help baby […]
Global warming of our oceans is having an impact across the marine environment. Associate Professor Ivan Nagelkerken from the University of Adelaide’s Environment Institute was interviewed recently by Ewart Shaw on Radio Adelaide about his research into the challenges faced by sharks due to increasing ocean temperatures.

The hunting ability and growth of sharks will be dramatically impacted by increased CO2 levels and warmer oceans expected by the end of the century, a University of Adelaide study has found. Published in the journal Scientific Reports, marine ecologists from the University of Adelaide’s Environment Institute report long-term experiments that show warmer waters and […]
Associate Professor Ivan Nagelkerken from the University of Adelaide’s Environment Institute recently wrote an article for The Conversation discussing the results of a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. The study that he undertook with colleague Professor Sean Connell analysed over 600 experiments world wide to identify patterns in the impact of ocean […]
A world-first global analysis of marine responses to climbing human CO2 emissions has painted a grim picture of future fisheries and ocean ecosystems. Published today in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), marine ecologists from the University of Adelaide say the expected ocean acidification and warming is likely to produce a […]
