About TREND
The TREND App collects information as part of the TREND initiative, which researches environmental changes in South Australia to better understand how our native ecosystems are changing over time. The species and PhotoPoint locations listed in this app have been chosen because they provide us with useful information on South Australian ecosystems. For more information, visit the TREND citizen science webpage.
TREND is managed by the University of Adelaide. All reference to “we” or “us” are references to the University of Adelaide.
