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)...

Appendix

This project examined various soil and vegetation properties of remnant eucalypt grassy woodlands under different livestock grazing regimes within agricultural landscapes on the southern tablelands and south west slopes of N.S.W. All woodlands contained…

The Issues: Grazing the Rangelands

Rangelands cover over 75 per cent of Australia’s land mass and are the largest group of relatively natural ecosystems in Australia. The continued productivity of the Rangelands for wool production depends on the long-term sustainability of their vegetation systems. Australia’s Rangelands are a mosaic of vegetation types that include grasslands, shrublands and woodlands. The short-term productivity of these systems for wool production is dependent on the annual species and plants (more)...
