The 'Great Southern Reef': Social, ecological and economic value of Australia's neglected kelp forests

Kelp forests define >8000km of temperate coastline across southern Australia, where ~70% of Australians live, work and recreate. Despite this, public and political awareness of the scale and significance of this marine ecosystem is low, and research investment miniscule (<10%), relativ...
