Investigating movements & distribution patterns of nomadic species in relation to productivity in Australia's arid rangelands

How do nomadic species respond to highly variable climatic & habitat conditions over vast scales and how do we cater for the conservation of such species?  Adopting species distribution modelling & satellite tracking this study addresses such questions.
