Restoration Management

We have been restoring and revegetating sites throughout SA for decades. We use an applied approach to site remediation, where possible using natural process to provide solutions.

Revegetation

A 'ground up' approach, which floods a site with coloniser species, is much quicker and more effective than traditional 'top down' revegetation methods at producing resilient and functional plant communities. Using coloniser species is the first step in the successional process.

Habitat Restoration

Succession Ecology can take your project from beginning to end with Environmental project management.

Biological Soil Crust

Soils of the arid zone are characterised by their low nutrient availability, poor biological activity, fine particle size, and high levels of salinity, alkalinity and sodicity. Biological soil crusts provide important functions in these systems; they bind soil, minimise erosion, fix carbon and nitrogen, and absorb rainfall.

Habitat Restoration

Our aim with habitat restoration is to build ecosystem function by reducing weed competition, increasing plant biodiversity and supporting the development of habitat structures for wildlife.

Dust Management

We specialise in dust management for projects in arid and semi-arid areas.

Weed and Pest Management

We use an applied ecological approach to weed and pest management that is tailored to your site and species.

Arid Restoration

We specialise in large-scale restoration of arid and semi-arid ecosystems.

Research

Succession Ecology has PhD-accredited environmental scientists with particular expertise in scientific design, research and reporting.  We can establish field and laboratory research trials, experiments and monitoring programs for your site to deliver evidence-based, quantifable decision-making tools.

A Successional Approach

Succession Ecology's unique approach to revegetation involves a ‘ground up’ methodology, which floods a site with seeds of native colonising species. The use of colonising species provides rapid site stabilisation and initiates the process of recovery to build ecosystem function. These species add organic carbon to the soil, attract invertebrates, deposit seed, compete with weeds and provide cover. Colonising species in the arid zone can reproduce within 6–8 weeks of rainfall, bolstering the seedbank. These attributes provide a great catalyst for building ecosystems in the arid zone.
