Welcome to the RRRC Website
We manage and deliver one of the world's
most comprehensive tropical environmental research
portfolios.
The Reef and Rainforest Research Centre (RRRC)
(see About
Us) was established in 2006 to implement the Australian
Government's Marine and Tropical
Sciences Research Facility (MTSRF), a major component of the
four-year $100 million Commonwealth Environment Research Facilities
program.
Since then, the RRRC has been contracted to administrate the
Government's National Environmental Research Program (NERP)
Tropical Ecosystems hub, one of five new research hubs that will
examine emerging biodiversity issues across northern Australia,
including the Great Barrier Reef, wet tropical rainforests and
Torres Strait.
The RRRC has also been engaged to coordinate and integrate the
new Reef
Rescue Water Quality Research and Development Program.
New websites for the NERP Tropical Ecosystems Hub and Reef
Rescue Water Quality R&D Program will be up and running
soon. In the meantime, this website provides access to
several hundred MTSRF-generated
publications, including the MTSRF Research
Report Series and the Synthesis Report
Series.
