NESP TWQ Project 2.2.3 - Early warning systems to minimize the risk of box jellyfish stings by empowering stakeholders, 2016-2018 (CSIRO)

Created 23/06/2025

Updated 23/06/2025

This project will minimise the risk of box jellyfish stings by empowering stakeholders with an early warning system. The project will first develop an openly-accessible database based on information from existing sting datasets, hospital records, and surf lifesaving and research data. The project will use this database to develop real-time forecasting models in major stinger hotspots on the GBR, based on environmental conditions and water quality. These forecasts will be tested with the project partners, SLSQ and AMPTO. This project will empower tourism operators, Traditional Owners and the public to mitigate stinger impacts.
