Immersion Group is a world leader in seagrass restoration techniques
Immersion Group is undertaking seagrass restoration activities on Corner Inlet in Victoria and Shark Bay Western Australia
Immersion Group founders John Statton and Scott Elliott initially worked together on seagrass, so it is no surprise that the company continues to maintain a vibrant seagrass restoration consultancy.
Corner Inlet, Victoria
Immersion Group partnered with the Yarram Yarram Landcare Network and Corner Inlet commercial fishers to restore 5 hectares of Broadleaf Seagrass (Posidonia australis) using scuba-based underwater restoration methods developed by co-founder, Dr John Statton.
The project is unique for its close engagement with the 18 commercial licence holders that fish Corner Inlet. Evidencing this commitment is commercial Bruce Collis, pictured right consulting with Dr John Statton regarding suitable locations for seagrass restoration in the embayment.
Shark Bay, Western Australia
Immersion Group’s Dr John Statton has been active in seagrass restoration on Shark Bay in Western Australia for over 20 years.
