An un-bell-ievable beauty! 🔔✨ Gillam’s Bell (𝘋𝘢𝘳𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘰𝘹𝘺𝘭𝘦𝘱𝘪𝘴) is threatened by dieback and illegal picking. #ProjectPhoenix secured seeds for conservation. @Science_DBCA will germinate them for future recovery. 🌱💚

It's #WorldNumbatDay!
Did you know we have bred and released 294 #Numbats since 1993, as part of a collaborative breeding program with @Science_DBCA to save this native species from extinction?

'Very high' densities of northern #quolls in baited, vs unbaited areas, suggests #feralcat control is vital.

Using an extensive time series of co-located reef fish community structure and habitat data spanning 12 years and the entire Australian continent, we found that reef fish community responses to changing temps and habitats are dynamic @Science_DBCA

Woylies in havens lose anti-predator traits. They are a common source of animals for reintroductions to former wild areas, but they may lack the match-fitness to evade predators.
Great article @tash_harro @NickiJMitch @Jaana_Dielen Adrian @Science_DBCA

This paper describes effects of stand thinning on Karri trees in Sutton Block. Reduction in stand density through thinning from below increased diameter growth of individual trees. @Science_DBCA

We all love releasing turtles, but how about dealing with a billion data points as well? Siobhan Paget nailed it, and great to see her paper out today that changed where we are trialling assisted colonisation @BiolSci_UWA @Science_DBCA @Biodivcouncil @climatecouncil
As one of the first animal species to be relocated due to climate change, WA's tiny Western Swamp Turtle has the eyes of the world upon it. 🐢 🐢 🐢 bit.ly/3OihaZw #UWA #climatechange @UWAresearch @NickiJMitch

A collaboration between @BiolSci_UWA and @Science_DBCA has won the 2023 Ecological Impact Award!
The team is examining the loss of anti-predator responses in #criticallyendangered #woylies to better inform conservation management strategies.

We just published a new paper at @PlantEnvInterac @wileyplantsci with some sobering findings. Our latest research at @Science_DBCA sheds light on future forest composition in Western Australia under a climate change scenario. Read the full study here: doi.org/10.1002/pei3.10108
