A great deal of consultation and preparation occurred before the event including the development of software for the reporting of results. On the day, the judges had a strict time limit per vehicle to assess seven separate criteria including originality, exterior panels and paint, exterior soft top and glass, interior, boot and spare wheel, engine bay and underside and wheels. Is it any wonder that by morning’s end, they felt a bit like this...?

    PLACES TO GO IN THE BEGA VALLEY SHIRE Amended October 2017. The following suggestions are a drawn from our out of print 2008 book of Places to Go and Birds to see. Updates have been made to reflect changes over time, whilst some places are no longer included. The Bega Valley Shire is vast and varied. The eastern boundary covers 106 km of coastline, the longest of any council in New South Wales, with much of it easily accessible, while the western boundary is the Great Dividing Range. The northern boundary is just north of Bermagui and the southern boundary follows the border with Victoria. Total area is 6,280 sq km and over 70% is either National Park or State Forest. This is a rural area with unsealed roads the norm. In some parts of the text the use of 4WD is advised. It is recommended that our suggestions are used in conjunction with a GPS or a district map. For more challenging 'adventures' detailed maps are available from Visitor Information Centres. At times you might meet livestock on the roads. Horse riders will appreciate cars slowing down. Cattle, sheep and goats often graze close to road edges, with or without supervision, and sounding the horn or forcing a passage through a herd is bad etiquette as well as resulting in possible damage to your car. Proceed slowly. Kangaroos, wallabies, wombats and echidnas are road users too. Please take care. For those not familiar with the area please note that mosquitoes, ticks and snakes may be present. Some of the walks are maintained by service clubs and community groups and the condition of each could vary depending on what funds and manpower are available.

  • Functioning and Changes in the Streamflow Generation of Catchments
    Ecohydrology in space and time: functioning and changes in the streamflow generation of catchments Ralph Trancoso Bachelor Forest Engineering Masters Tropical Forests Sciences Masters Applied Geosciences A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Earth and Environmental Sciences Trancoso, R. (2016) PhD Thesis, The University of Queensland Abstract Surface freshwater yield is a service provided by catchments, which cycle water intake by partitioning precipitation into evapotranspiration and streamflow. Streamflow generation is experiencing changes globally due to climate- and human-induced changes currently taking place in catchments. However, the direct attribution of streamflow changes to specific catchment modification processes is challenging because catchment functioning results from multiple interactions among distinct drivers (i.e., climate, soils, topography and vegetation). These drivers have coevolved until ecohydrological equilibrium is achieved between the water and energy fluxes. Therefore, the coevolution of catchment drivers and their spatial heterogeneity makes their functioning and response to changes unique and poses a challenge to expanding our ecohydrological knowledge. Addressing these problems is crucial to enabling sustainable water resource management and water supply for society and ecosystems. This thesis explores an extensive dataset of catchments situated along a climatic gradient in eastern Australia to understand the spatial and temporal variation

  • Mount Imlay National Park
    MOUNT IMLAY NATIONAL PARK PLAN OF MANAGEMENT NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service October 1998 This plan of management was adopted by the Minister for the Environment on 4 October 1998 Acknowledgements: This plan of management was prepared by staff of the Field Services Division in co-operation with Eden District of the National Parks and Wildlife Service. The Eden District Advisory Committee made a valuable contribution to the finalisation of this plan of management. The assistance from specialist staff in the Southern Region and other Service divisions is also gratefully acknowledged. NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. Crown Copyright 1998: Use permitted with appropriate acknowledgment ISBN 0 7310 7641 9 FOREWORD Mount Imlay National Park is located in the far south coast hinterland of New South Wales, approximately 20 km southwest of Eden. It has an area of 3 808ha and consists of steep, deeply dissected forested country around the peak of Mount Imlay. The park has a variety of natural habitats and is important as a refuge area for the conservation of the native plants and animals of the district, including a number of threatened or geographically significant species. The summit of Mount Imlay is of particular scientific interest because of its largely undisturbed nature, the presence of several threatened plant species and its biogeographical similarity to Tasmanian peaks. The summit also has high natural landscape and recreational value. It is a distinctive and prominent peak in the Eden district and is a popular walking destination. The park will be managed primarily to protect its habitat values and populations of native plants and animals.

The Xanthorrhoeaceae has the largest representation with 10 genera and 99 species. Most are endemic with a few species of Lomandra and Romnalda extending to neighbouring islands. The family includes the spectacular blackboys and grass-trees. The Iridaceae is largely represented by naturalised species with 52 of the 78 species being introduced. Many of the introductions are ornamentals and several have become serious weeds. Patersonia is the largest genus with all 17 species endemic. Some of these are cultivated as ornamentals. The Dioscoreaccae is a family of economic significance, particularly in the old world tropics where some species are cultivated or collected for their tubers and bulbils. In Australia there are 5 species, one of which is a recent introduction. The endemic and native species, commonly known as yams, are traditionally eaten by the Aborigines.

Schipper Summary Climate change and land use change are ongoing features which affect the hydrological regime by changing the rainfall partitioning into actual evapotranspiration and runoff. A data-based method has been previously developed to attribute changes in streamflow to climate and land use change. Since this method has not been often applied, a large sample attribution study by applying this method to catchments in different parts of the world will provide more insight in the water partitioning and will evaluate the attribution method. The results can be used by water managers of the studied catchments to obtain the main reason for changes in streamflow. The used method is applicable to a large sample set of catchments because it is a relatively fast method and it can provide quantitative results. The objective of this study is to apply a non-modelling attribution method to attribute changes in streamflow to climate change and land use change to a large sample set of catchments in different parts of the world and to evaluate the used method.
