Understorey: A Tern for the Better

Terrestrial and marine ecologist Dr Nic Dunlop has just had his longstanding work with seabirds and climate, and wide support of environmental issues, recognised through the Conservation Council’s prestigious Bessie Rischbieth Award.  Dr Dunlop’s researches indicators of marine ecosystems and island, bat, climate change and landscape ecology.  He has championed multi-decade projects protecting and tracking the population dynamics of fairy terns, identifying stable populations here in WA, but elsewhere in Australia and New Zealand finding it vulnerable and even critically endangered.   Understorey interviewed Dr Dunlop on Saturday, just before Dr Carmen Lawrence announced the award, to learn more about the canny and beautiful traveller around our shores.  (Photo: E PO’)
