Environmental Drivers of Woody Plant Structure from Coast to Desert
OFF Research Grant recipient, University of NSW postgrad student, Jingyi Ding will discuss how the structure of Australian trees and the soil fertile islands formed under vegetation change as environments become drier. Jingyi will explain how the relationship between biodiversity (e.g., tree, soil microbes) and ecosystem functions change with different vegetation communities. Based on field surveys from the Sydney coast across NSW to Cameron Corner, her research will have implications on the response of Australian ecosystems to predicted drier climates.
