Maximising woodlands bird diversity in Brigalow Belt forests

Final report

The Brigalow Belt is a national biodiversity hotspot, and its extensive forests and woodlands are potentially significant refugia for fragmentation-sensitive birds, but our understanding of optimal management for biodiversity conservation and the specific threats facing woodland birds in the area is limited. In particular, management of the aggressive noisy miner is a major challenge throughout the region, despite the species typically being associated with fragmented landscapes. This project aimed to (more)...

Water allocation to River Murray wetlands: a basin-wide modeling approach

The primary aim of this project was to relate the water regime preferences of wetland plants to hydrology throughout the Murray River Basin and to predict the volume of additional water required to achieve optimal plant species diversity. This report details the methods and key findings of the project which examined the impact of regulation and changes in water allocation on the community composition of wetland plants through the Murray River basin. Due to a lack of primary data, it deals (more)...

Water Quality on New England wool properties

Northern Tablelands Project Fact Sheet: 5

During the Land, Water and Wool (LWW) Northern Tablelands Project (NSW), water quality in Monitor farm dams and creeks was measured to establish a baseline for the future. This Fact Sheet reports the results of water chemistry testing, and the diversity
