Ecosystems at risk

Ecosystems are under threat of collapse from human stresses and climate change. Is your favourite ecosystem at risk?

In this episode of Boiling Point, Sammy and Liz speak with Dr. Aniko Toth, a research fellow at UNSW Sydney who works in ecosystem conservation. Aniko uses modeling to combine satellite data with local species data to classify ecosystems and then assess them for the possibility of collapse, or the possibility that the ecosystem won’t be able to function normally. Listen to the episode to understand how she accomplishes this, as well as what her work is used for (IUCN Red List of Ecosystems)!
