Research and Monitoring
Vision
The vision for scientific evaluation and monitoring in marine parks is that:
Locations and boundaries for marine parks and the zoning arrangements within them will have been derived from thorough scientific assessments of all available information and data, to provide the best combination of areas for the conservation of biodiversity.
Rigorous research and monitoring are accepted as vital components of ongoing marine park management, and are resourced accordingly.
Accurate and timely scientific advice is provided to marine park managers.
Scientific information systems and services are established and integrated with those of other organisations with an interest in coastal protection.
The public of NSW and the international scientific community have full confidence in the quality of the research conducted in marine parks.
