State linkage projects
The final component of the SRFME Collaborative Program is the State Linkage
Projects scheme. SRFME invested $155,000 in this scheme with
the objective of enabling WA State Government agencies to engage
actively in SRFME through small projects which link new or existing
initiatives to other parts of the SRFME Research Portfolio. Nine
State Linkages Projects were funded to institutions such as the
WA Museum, Department of Environment, Department of Conservation
and Land Management and the Department of Fisheries. Leaders
from these projects have given presentations at SRFME symposia
in June 2003 and June 2004. Some of the projects remained ongoing
at the end of 2006. A description of each project and its results
to date are given in Volume 1 of the SRFME Final Report.

these reports are extracted from the SRFME
Final Report Volume 1 [PDF 19 Mb].
