Compton in New Cdetlonia and the Isle of‘ Pines dnriiig 1914, with the aid of grants from tlie Royal Society, tlie Percy Sliicleii Trust Fund, and tlie Worts ’l’ravelling Fund of (‘ninbridge Universi tp. C’ollecting materials were also provided by tlie Cnmbridge Botaiiy School and tlic British Museum, Natural History. The sliecimens collected have been prescnted to the British Museum, where the greater part liave been determined. Prof. Coinpton liopes Inter to publish a paper or papei*s dealing with the New Cldedonian vegetation froin the slandlioints of Ecology and Geographical Distrihtion. A considerable quantity of materid WIS pre- served in a condi tion buitable for iriorphological and nnatomical research, and several papers are f‘orcshaclowccl on these aspects of sonie of the interesting forms in wliicli tile Flora of New Caleclonin is 50 extraordinarily rich.

  • Paul Flower Report on Herbicide Spraying
    Bitou Bush Helicopter Boom Spraying in NSW Paul Flower 2004 Bitou Helicopter Boom Spraying in NSW i Credits Elizabeth Teakle for proofreading, John Toth who provided incalculable assistance, Andrew Leys for constructive comments on the final draft, Dr. David Teakle for generous help with references and proof reading, . Bitou Helicopter Boom Spraying in NSW ii Executive Summary Helicopter spraying of glyphosate herbicides has achieved high levels of control of Bitou in many sites in NSW, but has achieved only 70 % or less kill of bitou at approximately one third of the total areas sprayed (see figure 2). The herbicides used in Bitou Helicopter Boom Spraying (BHBS) are predominantly glyphosate herbicides. Of the areas sprayed, 55% has been with Roundup®, 41% with Roundup Biactive®, and 5% of the area were sprayed with metsulfuron-methyl as Brush-Off ® Brushcontroller (see Figure 5). The factors reducing the effectiveness of glyphosate were reviewed from the scientific literature. Water stress was most commonly attributed by BHBS managers to result in low kill rates of bitou by BHBS. However other environmental conditions associated with drought, such as low relative humidity and salt build-up on leaves, have been found in studies to be important in reducing kill rates of glyphosate herbicides. Low humidity at the time of spraying can result in the solidification of the herbicide on the leaf surface and reduced herbicide uptake. The majority of native plant species monitored through BHBS with glyphosate are not considered sensitive to this procedure. A smaller number of species have been observed to be commonly killed by BHBS and are listed in this report as highly sensitive.

  • Species of City-Wide Significance for Conservation (2016 Update)
    Species of City-wide Significance for Conservation (2016 Update) Final Report June 2016 CITY OF GOLD COAST Speciesecology of City-wide Significance/ vegetation for Conservation / wildlife (2016 Update) / aquatic ecologyecosure / GIS.com.au | i Executive summary The City of Gold Coast engaged Ecosure Pty Ltd to undertake a review of the 2012 species of city-wide significance for conservation list and develop a decision-framework for prioritising species for future conservation management actions. Through a review of the existing criteria, updating the legislative status and scoring the base list of species for the Gold Coast local government area against the revised criteria, a draft list of city-wide significant species was established. An expert panel review of the draft species list resulted in a final city-wide significant species list containing 572 flora and 160 fauna species, from a base species list containing 1,952 vascular and legislatively significant non-vascular flora and 609 vertebrate and legislatively significant invertebrate fauna species. This species list will be used by the City to create a priority species list as part of a priority species management program. Part of the scope of this present project has been to review various frameworks to assess priorities. After an in-depth literature review and consultative process, Ecosure recommended the Back on Track Phase II methods as a suitable decision- support framework for the City. Customisation of the Back on Track Phase II methods to suit the City’s requirements are summarised in Section 3.6 of this report. Section 4 provides recommendations which have arisen during the course of this project and include for example, the timeframe for future reviews of the city-wide significant species list and decision-support framework criteria, items for consideration in future reviews and suggestions for the subsequent application of the species list.
