Founding an Australian Critical Zone Observatory Network. This proposal founds a new network of Australian Critical Zone Observatories. The network will fill essential knowledge gaps about interactions of under- and above-ground environmental processes and their responses to disturbance and change. These interactions determine the sustainability of food, clean water, mineral resources and Australian ecosystems, and cannot be studied with existing environmental infrastructure. The 5 foundational sites will host integrated monitoring equipment to observe stocks and fluxes of carbon, water, energy and mass across the “Critical Zone” – the vertical span from plant canopies to fresh bedrock. Joining a burgeoning international movement, the network will catalyse Critical Zone science in Australia.

建立澳大利亚关键区域天文台网络。该提案找到了一个新的澳大利亚关键区观测站网络。该网络将填补有关地下和上面环境过程相互作用及其对干扰和变化的反应的基本知识差距。这些相互作用决定了食品，清水，矿产资源和澳大利亚生态系统的可持续性，无法通过现有的环境基础设施进行研究。这5个基础地点将托管集成的监视设备，以观察“关键区域”跨越碳，水，能量和质量的库存和通量 - 从植物檐篷到新鲜基岩的垂直跨度。该网络加入了新兴的国际运动，将催化澳大利亚的关键区科学。
