  • Cool Temperate Mixed Forest Investigation Report
    INVESTIGATION REPORT COOL TEMPERATE RAINFOREST & MIXED FOREST RAINFOREST SITE OF SIGNIFICANCE (EG85 - Hensleigh - Far Creek) COAST RANGE ROAD VicForests Logging coupe 886-509-0012 Abstract Sections of VicForests scheduled logging coupe 886-509-0012 were investigated to assess the presence and extent of Cool Temperate Rainforest and Cool Temperate Mixed Forest communities. Areas of Cool Temperate Rainforest were identified within coupe 886-509-0012. These areas of the study location were readily identified by the presence of rainforest character species and the comparative structural composition of these stands to those expected to be found in mature rainforest. Cool Temperate Mixed Forest (Mixed Forest) areas of the study location within coupe 886-509- 0012 were identified by noting the presence of characteristic Mixed Forest species including in their formation of a multi-layer structured community comprised of Mixed Forest character species of an advanced age class, the presence of cool temperate rainforest character and differential species, and the topographic contiguity and relative proximity between the Mixed Forest areas within coupe 886-509- 0012 and the extant Mixed Forest clearly identifiable in the adjacent forest areas immediately to the north of coupe 886-509-0012 across Coast Range Road in the Errinundra National Park. This investigation also notes that coupe 886-509-0012 is located within a “Rainforest Site of Significance” (EG85 - Hensleigh - Far Creek). Recommendations are made to the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) and to VicForests to ensure that all areas of Cool Temperate Rainforest and Mixed Forest are excluded from logging and that no further logging is undertaken within the “Rainforest Site of Significance”.

  • NLE Leptospermum Forest: Coastal Facies
    Vegetation Condition Benchmarks version 2 Non-Eucalypt Forest and Woodland NLE Leptospermum forest: coastal facies Community Description: Leptospermum forest is dominated by one or more of Leptospermum lanigerum, L. scoparium, L. glaucescens or L. nitidum (5 – 10 m) with semi-closed or closed canopies. Mid and ground layers may be sparsely shrubby and sedgy, or the ground may be bare or covered by deep litter. The coastal facies of NLE has L. glaucescens and sometimes L. scoparium in the canopy and may be diverse and uneven in height where it has suffered patchy effects of fire or windthrow. A minor facies dominated by Leptospermum lanigerum and Acacia melanoxylon in coastal swamps is included. This benchmark is one of 2 benchmarks available to assess the condition of NLE. Benchmarks: Length Component Cover % Height (m) DBH (cm) #/ha (m)/0.1 ha Canopy 70% - - - Large Trees - 80 25 1000 Organic Litter 40% - Logs ≥ 10 - 3 Large Logs ≥ 12.5 Recruitment Episodic Understorey Life Forms LF code # Spp Cover % Tree or large shrub T 4 10 Medium shrub/small shrub S 5 10 Prostrate shrub PS 2 5 Herbs and orchids H 1 1 Medium to small sedge/rush/sagg/lily MSR 1 5 Ground fern GF 1 1 Scrambler/Climber/Epiphytes SCE 2 1 Total 7 16 Last reviewed – 5 July 2016 Tasmanian Vegetation Monitoring and Mapping Program Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment http://www.dpipwe.tas.gov.au/tasveg NLE Leptospermum forest: coastal facies Species lists: Canopy Tree Species Common Name Notes Acacia melanoxylon blackwood Leptospermum scoparium common teatree Leptospermum lanigerum woolly teatree Leptospermum glaucescens smoky teatree Leptospermum nitidum shiny teatree Typical Understorey Species * Common Name LF Code Acacia spp.

Merci pour ton enthousiasme et ta passion pour la recherche qui m'ont véritablement portée pendant ces trois années. C'était un vrai plaisir de travailler à tes côtés. Moi qui étais focalisée sur les systèmes de reproduction chez les plantes, tu m'as ouvert à un nouveau domaine de la recherche tout aussi intéressant qui est l'évolution moléculaire (même si je suis loin de maîtriser tous les concepts...). Tu as toujours été bienveillant et à l'écoute, je t'en remercie.

  • 2017 ARHS Seed Exchange
    2017 ARHS Seed Exchange Sharon Bryson … Seed Exchange Chair Welcome to the 2017 Seed Exchange for the Atlantic Rhododendron & Horticultural Society. The electronic approach to the Seed Exchange seems to work very well. The seed list and order form will go out to all those with email addresses. A hard copy will be made available to those without email. Once again we will post the Seed List on the Internet which will have a full complement of links to many images and information to help in your decision-making. The online version will have periodic updates on seed lot availability. Visit The Willow Garden website and follow the links for 2017 ARHS Seed Exchange. A link to the list will be inserted on the Atlantic Rhodo site. We again wish to thank the faithful contributors who have made this possible. The overall success of our Seed Exchange depends upon seed contributions by our members, so please make a “mental note” to save some interesting seeds for next years’ Exchange. There is always an interest in the Companion Plant section as well as the Azalea and Rhododendron sections. Success also depends upon members purchasing seed. Many interesting plants can be added to our gardens by simply growing a few seeds. Plant enthusiasts outside of our regional society have again made valuable contributions to our annual exchange. Crosses from Y. Doi from Japan are especially noteworthy. Quantities of most are quite small, so order early if you are interested in these lots. Our 2017 list has several seed lots from the 2016 list.

  • Post-Fire Recovery of Woody Plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion
    Post-fire recovery of woody plants in the New England Tableland Bioregion Peter J. ClarkeA, Kirsten J. E. Knox, Monica L. Campbell and Lachlan M. Copeland Botany, School of Environmental and Rural Sciences, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, AUSTRALIA. ACorresponding author; email: [email protected] Abstract: The resprouting response of plant species to fire is a key life history trait that has profound effects on post-fire population dynamics and community composition. This study documents the post-fire response (resprouting and maturation times) of woody species in six contrasting formations in the New England Tableland Bioregion of eastern Australia. Rainforest had the highest proportion of resprouting woody taxa and rocky outcrops had the lowest. Surprisingly, no significant difference in the median maturation length was found among habitats, but the communities varied in the range of maturation times. Within these communities, seedlings of species killed by fire, mature faster than seedlings of species that resprout. The slowest maturing species were those that have canopy held seed banks and were killed by fire, and these were used as indicator species to examine fire immaturity risk. Finally, we examine whether current fire management immaturity thresholds appear to be appropriate for these communities and find they need to be amended. Cunninghamia (2009) 11(2): 221–239 Introduction Maturation times of new recruits for those plants killed by fire is also a critical biological variable in the context of fire Fire is a pervasive ecological factor that influences the regimes because this time sets the lower limit for fire intervals evolution, distribution and abundance of woody plants that can cause local population decline or extirpation (Keith (Whelan 1995; Bond & van Wilgen 1996; Bradstock et al.
