A Science in the Pub style event with presentations from Dr David Newell, an ecologist from Southern Cross University with a long history in using acoustic monitoring devises to inform conservation efforts for threatened species and Mark Ambrose, an ecologist from Border Ranges Richmond Valley Landcare, sharing Landcare's koala acoustic monitoring project.
The event will carve the path for citizen scientists to become involved in a Richmond catchment wide koala monitoring program deploying monitors in the landscape and analysing and validating the data. This program contributes to strategic planning for conservation action for our Northern Rivers koalas.
Presentations followed by a Q& A session and general discussion.
