The environmental explorations of the area undertaken from 1830-1877 are the subject of a lecture.
Presented through The Royal Society of Tasmania, the lecture will trace some of the early and lesser known scientific work undertaken at the settlement, the sometimes questionable methods of collection, and how the knowledge gained then continues to influence both the scientific and historical fields today.
Delivering the lecture will be Port Arthur Historical Site conservation officer Dr Caitlin Vertigan and University of New England Research Fellow Richard Tuffin.
