A collaborative consortium of over 80 of Australia's most experienced tropical river and coastal scientists was established; TRaCK focussed on acquiring fundamental knowledge about the assets and values of tropical rivers and the ecosystem processes that underpin them including developing and sustaining partnerships with Indigenous groups, and strengthening their capacity to engage in research and planning processes."
