Australian Marine Parks protect a huge range of spectacular marine life and features like coral reefs, and underwater canyons and mountains. They are big, deep and often beyond sight of the coastline.

There is much we know about these special places and much that we don't. The Australian Marine Parks Science Atlas provides those interested in marine science with a snapshot of:

the scientific research and information that underpinned the establishment of Australian Marine Parks
the work that Parks Australia and the Australian marine science community are doing to improve our understanding of and ability to effectively manage these parks.
