The drivers contributing to the trajectories of seagrass ecosystems is a key knowledge gap which limits our effectiveness in preventing their decline. Here, we present the key findings from the regional assessment of seagrass condition (shoot density) over time, which was undertaken to inform environmental impact assessment and monitoring as well as mitigation for the Westport program. To assess regional trends and drivers of these trends, data was collated from five regional seagrass monitoring programs, including the Cockburn Sound State Environmental Policy Seagrass Monitoring Program and marine park monitoring programs conducted by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.
