Ecology & Science

Morphum’s experts on the investigation and management of contaminated soil help prevent harmful substances from reaching workers, communities, future landowners and the surrounding environment.

If a site has been used, or has potentially been used, for industry or activities that involve probable ground contamination, then it’s very likely an investigation will be required.

As part of this process, we investigate potentially contaminated land and plan any remediation of the site, giving our clients the piece of mind that their next steps will result in positive outcomes and removing risk from ongoing issues.

Restoring an area of our environment takes a lot of work, fortunately Morphum embraces this complexity to enable restoration projects.

With geospatial tools and ecological understanding to plan a restoration project, and the engineering ability to design and manage execution, our expert teams are perfectly positioned for restoration planning projects.

Our past restoration projects include streamworks, wetland design & construction, native planting plans, biodiversity & wildlife planning and ongoing monitoring of restored sites.

Catchments are complex webs of variables, and planning for their future relies on capturing what makes each catchment unique.

Our integrated catchment planning approach addresses the interconnections within ecosystems and between these ecosystems and people including cultural, social, recreational, and economic values).

By addressing land use, water quality and biodiversity collectively, we develop robust catchment plans that support the overall health of catchment areas, ensuring sustainable outcomes for future generations.

With so many variables involved in our environment, the policies created to protect and restore are often just as complex.

Morphum not only helps interpret environmental policy, but we consult and provide data that informs these policies as third-party experts.

Our consultation in this space offers us greater insight into how to interpret and implement national and local government policy, so we can help our clients understand what this means for their project, assets and organisation.
