The recently-started project Coastal Carbon Opportunities: demonstrating additionality and potential for future offsets in South Australia' will see a multidisciplinary research team working to determine the value of South Australia's coastal carbon ecosystems. Read More
The Goyder Institute for Water Research’s downscaled climate change projections for South Australia are being used for water resource management across South Australia to help improve the security of water resources into the future. Read More
The Goyder Institute for Water Research sponsored a panel session at the Adelaide’s Smart Water Summit in March. Read More
The Coastal Carbon Opportunities project is among the first to research climate change mitigation in coastal systems. The Goyder Institute for Water Research team, led by Professor Bronwyn Gillanders (University of Adelaide), are investigating the potential of South Australian coastal ecosystems (seagrass, mangrove and saltmarsh) for carbon sequestration and storage.

The Goyder Institute for Water Research initiated the Carbon Offsets Research to Support the State Carbon Sequestration Strategy project to assess South Australia's potential to offset emissions through land-use change and increase participation in the national Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF). The ERF has recently transitioned to the Climate Solutions Fund (CSF). Read More
