University of North South Wales Philosophy Scholarship Study at Australia

Scholarship at University of North South Wales Deadline 6 July 2012, MPhil Scholarship in Social Sciences for Domestic & International Students at the School of Social Sciences, University of North South Wales, By 2036, Sydney’s population is expected to reach 6 million, an increase of 1.7 million since the 2006 ABS Census. This means Sydney will need to provide 770,000 more homes than in 2006. Much of this development will be suburban infill and redevelopment at higher density leading to potential losses of green space. 

The twin trends work against the well-documented positive impacts that green spaces and especially trees can have on the sustainability performance of suburban areas. Trees and green spaces can reduce the need for storm water provision, prevent floods and save on air conditioning, mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and improve biodiversity. 

Since more than 80% of Australia’s population lives in urban areas which will be affected by climate change and peak oil, there is an urgent need to understand the barriers that exist to further planting of trees in suburban areas. While a great deal of research exists internationally on urban forests, little work has been undertaken that is appropriate to Australian conditions, which include soils with a uniquely low nitrogen content and the frequent drought conditions to which Australian flora is subjected.
