Tropical Savannas Cooperative Research Centre
IT Services in Darwin

The Tropical Savannas ARC helped make land management research more skillful to the various land managers and agencies across the tropical savanna sand in this way helped ensure sustainable conservation and use of the tropical savannas. Identify the requirements for the sustainable management of indigenous natural and cultural resources. By bringing together last users and researchers to labor on projects across northern Australia, the Tropical Savannas ARC has produced some important achievements which are continuing to transform the management of the savannas. Links across the north The ARC has also helped flourish fresh cooperative bodies that work with people on the ground as well as researchers and that can coordinate land and sea management across the north. The Tropical Savannas ARC (TSCRC) has helped these land managers prosper their own solutions. The project has significantly changed the fire patterns across the western portion of the Arnhem Land Plateau reducing the extent of slow arid season wildfire. The WALFA project is receiving more than 1M dollars a year from the Energy Company ConocoPhillips to manage wildfire on the Arnhem Land Plateau in return for the Greenhouse Gas Emission reductions achieved and in the process is securing jobs and building fire and business management skills in Indigenous communities. The TSCRC is no exception and since 1995 it has supported 35 Ch.D. students who worked on research relevant to the savanna industries: the government departments and agencies, the grazing enterprises and communities that have to manage the tropical savannas. A survey of a long range of tropical savanna land managers conducted by the center in its early years, showed that they also valued graduates who were not full time researchers but who had certificated, diploma and masters qualifications related to savanna NM and who worked in industry and planning roles. Reports on the regional dynamics of the savannas. Reports that evaluated regional planning impaired by the regional NM groups in the savannas. Reports on tourism and its impact in the tropical savannas. To face this need, the Tropical Savannas ARC’s Tropical Savannas' Knowledge for Schools project worked with Education Departments, teachers and students as healthy as land managers and researchers to produce engaging and accurate materials on the Tropical Savannas that worked with school curricula. The center had a linking approach to research: our research program was organized around four integrated themes rather than different research disciplines or sectors. It provides scholarships and encourage for students in disciplines relevant to landscape management in northern Australia but is also developing programs that help diverse communities across northern Australia to take segment in other types of education processes. What are tropical savannas? The site is organized around the diverse regions and different challenges faced by natural resource managers. The West Arnhem Land Fire Abatement Project represents an important fresh way that skilled Indigenous fire managers in Australia’s fire prone tropical savannas can work with the broader community to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, save culture and biodiversity on their country, and bring in social and economic benefits to their communities. Plant and animal species of international significance. This project, funded by the Instinctive Heritage Trust, and coordinated by the Tropical Savannas ARC, brought together research and knowledge on north Australian fires and made it more widely available to fire managers. Male bastards return to the equivalent sites in the northern savannas to display year after year. The Postgraduate Program in Tropical Environmental Management provides students with the opportunity to study, develop, and benefit skills in the sustainable management of tropical ecosystems. An evaluation and methods for integrating biodiversity conservation into instinctive resource management planning in the Tropical Savannas of Northern Australia. What it's about: This workshop is to discuss details of a fresh ARC project on vegetation change in the savannas (see join to research project below).
