Question How can students become further involved in understanding and conserving grasslands?
Expert Dr John Morgan
Dr John Morgan is a research scientist in the Department of Botany at La Trobe University, Bundoora. John has worked for many years in the grassy ecosystems of southern Australia, concentrating on understanding the long-term changes that occur in species composition in the context of land-use change, ecological management and plant invasions, relating his findings to conservation and biodiversity.
My advice is to join a Friends Group – such as the Friends of Organ Pipes National Park, or the Friends of Iramoo. Here, you’ll meet people passionate about the ecosystem, and learn lots from them too.
