This project aims to understand the coupling between soil physical, chemical and biological diversity at a range of scales and land uses across New South Wales and its relationship with soil functioning. Soil diversity with its coupled biodiversity is crucial for conservation of sustainable ecosystems. Soil diversity varies on a continuum from microbial habitats to elds, catchments and regions. This project will enhance our ability to understand the drivers of soil change through time, critical for minimising loss of biodiversity, achieving food and soil security and inferring effects of climate change.

该项目旨在了解新南威尔士州不同规模的土壤物理、化学和生物多样性与土地利用之间的耦合及其与土壤功能的关系。土壤多样性及其生物多样性对于保护可持续生态系统至关重要。土壤多样性从微生物栖息地到田地、流域和地区都是连续变化的。该项目将增强我们了解土壤随时间变化的驱动因素的能力，这对于最大限度地减少生物多样性的丧失、实现粮食和土壤安全以及推断气候变化的影响至关重要。
