This community in the Riverina and Murray-Darling Depression Bioregions occurs from south-eastern South Australia through north-western and northern central Victoria into south central New South Wales. The Buloke Woodlands community has suffered a considerable reduction in distribution since European settlement, largely due to extensive clearing for agriculture and grazing by domestic stock, native and feral herbivores. Buloke Woodlands now exist as a patchy, highly fragmented, mostly highly degraded, community across much of its former range. Remnants persist on roadsides, private land and some public land including several parks and reserves. The Buloke Woodlands community is listed as Endangered under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. This national Recovery Plan for the 'Buloke Woodlands of the Riverina and Murray-Darling Depression Bioregions' ecological community is the first recovery plan for the community, and details its distribution, habitat, threats and recovery objectives, and actions necessary to ensure the long-term survival of the ecological community. Community Information Description The ‘Buloke Woodlands of the Riverina and Murray Darling Depression Bioregions’ ecological community (herein referred to as Buloke Woodlands) encompasses a number of closely-related woodland communities in which Buloke (also known as Bull-Oak; Allocasuarina luehmannii (or Casuarina luehmannii, following Hwang 1992) is usually a dominant or co-dominant tree (DENR 2007). Other trees that may be prominent in Buloke Woodlands include: • Slender Pine (Callitris gracilis) (also known as Callitris preissii following Farjon 2005) - a common codominant • White/Murray Pine (Callitris glaucophylla) (also known as Callitris columellaris following Farjon 2005) - a common associate • Black Box (Eucalyptus largiflorens) - a frequent dominant from adjoining communities • Yellow/Blue Gum (Eucalyptus leucoxylon subsp. pruinosa) - a common codominant • Grey Box (Eucalyptus microcarpa) - a common codominant Buloke Woodlands includes vegetation where

  • Deterioration Modelling of Granular Pavements for Rural Arterial Roads
    DETERIORATION MODELLING OF GRANULAR PAVEMENTS FOR RURAL ARTERIAL ROADS By Nahla Hussein Aswad Alaswadko Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology Swinburne University of Technology Melbourne, Australia December 2016 ABSTRACT ABSTRACT To keep any network in service at an acceptable condition and maintain and preserve the network performance, the management system can be enhanced by models for predicting pavement conditions. Investigation into maintenance and rehabilitation of rural arterial roads is triggered when road condition reaches certain threshold levels of roughness, rutting and cracking. To assist road agencies in their long term planning, the aim of this research project is to develop powerful deterioration models for a rural arterial network, using novel approaches for data preparation and modelling. The reliability and usefulness of such models in a pavement management system stem from using accurate datasets with suitable modelling approaches. Therefore, the study’s main goal is to use a new approach for preparing accurate condition data to use in developing pavement deterioration models utilising a new modelling approach. Pavement condition parameters modelled herein, include surface roughness, rutting and cracking. To achieve the aim of this study, representative samples of highways from Victoria’s spray sealed rural network are considered. The selected sample network is from 40 highways with a combined length of more than 2,300 km. The network covers a large sample size with representative ranges of traffic loading, pavement strength, subgrade soil type and environmental factors for four road classes (M, A, B and C) which differ in quality and function.
