Program 3 - Torres Strait: Status, Use and Trends

Program Leader:  Mr Vic McGrath, Torres Strait Regional Authority (TSRA)

Program 3 will concentrate its resources on establishing key background knowledge and models of the status, use and trends of Torres Strait ecosystems to enable predictive power and management strategy evaluation in the future.

The Torres Strait Node comprises two components:

  • Status, trends and use; and

  • Marine species of conservation concern. 

Information from Program 3 will contribute to an Integrated Report Card, detailed under Theme 5.  Development of the Report Card is to be combined across the Torres Strait and Great Barrier Reef “Status and Trends” programs, the “Ecosystems and Social Frameworks” Program in the Water Quality Node and the Rainforest Node.  The three nodes will work closely within the first year, but then diverge in following years as researchers identify and move on to specific information needs.
