For over 60,000 years, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of Australia have developed an enduring knowledge marine freshwater organisms ecosystems on Sea Country. However, it has taken more than 200 years since colonisation, a biodiversity habitat crisis for Australia, to begin recognise value Indigenous Ecological Knowledge (IEK). This perspective piece builds previous work define IEK in the context Country research, particularly within Australia. It discusses reasons rarity literature, loss intergenerational transmission IEK, erosion cultural heritage tensions between Western science strategies change. The elevation national research priorities offers opportunity correct historical wrongs develop effective inclusion researchers. Together we need protect what been lost restore sustain

Braiding Indigenous oral histories and habitat mapping to understand urchin barrens in southern New South Wales

Marine and Freshwater Research, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 76(6)

Context The sea urchin (Centrostephanus rodgersii) is linked to barrens and potential kelp forest depletion along New South Wales (NSW) southern coast. Whereas previous studies employed scientific methods evaluate barrens, Indigenous Traditional Knowledges offer valuable insights into population dynamics. Aims This study aimed ‘braid’ with Western science better understand in the region. Methods Yarning circles Walbunja Owners were conducted alongside habitat mapping using image segmentation of remotely sensed imagery. Key results highlighted long-term declines culturally significant species, including snapper (Pagrus auratus), lobster (Jasus edwardsii), groper (Achoerodus viridis), abalone (Haliotis rubra) cuttlefish (Sepia apama). Habitat showed dynamic vegetation cover, although differentiating from other posed challenges. Urchin present across all sites as part a mosaic typical NSW rocky reefs. Conclusions research demonstrated value braiding enhance understanding Implications yarning suggest that utilising Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander perspectives future would improve ecological inform sustainable marine management strategies. Further, has need for higher resolution aerial

Restorative aquaculture stimulates cultural and ecological benefits: Centering sugar kelp, indigenous stewardship, and a New York estuary

Earth stewardship., Год журнала: 2025, Номер 2(2)

Опубликована: Март 17, 2025

Abstract In the face of intensifying climate change and growing shoreline industrialization, coastal socio‐ecological systems can benefit from resource development strategies that provide important environmental benefits. One such strategy (i.e., nature‐based solution) involves restorative aquaculture, which improves health through continual delivery ecological services. Through seaweed cultivation, humans directly small‐scale output improved conditions like water quality. Aquaculture also play a large role in cultural benefits strengthen place‐based connections access to significant areas. Small‐scale aquaculture have received little academic attention despite crucial they sustainable cultivation. this piece, we explain how Shinnecock Kelp Farmers, an Indigenous women‐led system, long been leaders field. Situated Northeastern United States, Farmers culture develop native seaweed, namely, sugar kelp. As more States programs conservation agencies explore satisfy goals, should work with communities decision‐making seats.
