The project aims at the restoration of a plot of highly degraded native forest in the Black River Gorges National Park. Through consultation with restoration ecologists, an effective means of controlling exotic weeds which are threatening the native forests will be developed. It will also document and restore to the extent possible the biological diversity of the degraded native ecosystem.
