  • 'Soils' and 'Vegetation'?
    Is there a close association between ‘soils’ and ‘vegetation’? A case study from central western New South Wales M.O. Rankin1, 3, W.S Semple2, B.W. Murphy1 and T.B. Koen1 1 Department of Natural Resources, PO Box 445, Cowra, NSW 2794, AUSTRALIA 2 Department of Natural Resources, PO Box 53, Orange, NSW 2800, AUSTRALIA 3 Corresponding author, email: [email protected] Abstract: The assumption that ‘soils’ and ‘vegetation’ are closely associated was tested by describing soils and vegetation along a Travelling Stock Reserve west of Grenfell, New South Wales (lat 33° 55’S, long 147° 45’E). The transect was selected on the basis of (a) minimising the effects of non-soil factors (human interference, climate and relief) on vegetation and (b) the presence of various soil and vegetation types as indicated by previous mapping. ‘Soils’ were considered at three levels: soil landscapes (a broad mapping unit widely used in central western NSW), soil types (according to a range of classifications) and soil properties (depth, pH, etc.). ‘Vegetation’ was considered in three ways: vegetation type (in various classifications), density/floristic indices (density of woody species, abundance of native species, etc.) and presence/absence of individual species. Sites along the transect were grouped according to soil landscapes or soil types and compared to vegetation types or indices recorded at the sites. Various measures indicated low associations between vegetation types and soil landscapes or soil types. Except for infrequent occurrences of a soil type or landscape, any one soil type or landscape was commonly associated with a number of vegetation types and any one vegetation type was associated with a number of soil landscapes or soil types.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

Grevillea triternata and Grevillea ramosissima(Proteaceae: Grevilleoideae). Telopea 5(4): 773-779 . Grevillea triternata R. Br. and G. ramosissima Meisn. are reviewed resulting in recognition of one new species, G. raybrownii P. Olde & N. Marriott and of a subspecies, G. ramosissima subsp. hypargyrea (F. Muell.) P. Olde & N. Marriott based onG. ramosissima var. hypargyrea F. Muell. for which a lectotype is designated. Notes on affinities and distribution are included as well as keys to the taxa. Introduction McGillivray (1993: 453) placed the species examined here in his Group 1 (1.2.2). They share the following characters: perianth zygomorphic with limb symmetrical but not erect, the inner surface glabrous, ovary densely hairy (and usually either sessile or shortly stipitate), fruits with reddish stripes or blotches in the indumentum. Although both Grevillea triternata and G. ramosissima were regarded by Bentham (1870) as being more closely related to species in his Section Conogyne,9, (Group 5 sensu McGil­ livray), the phenetic similarity in this case is superficial and appears to have arisen independently by a process of evolutionary convergence, probably in response to pollinator(s).

  • 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.

Diameter Shaft and Fans Installation Environmental Risk Assessment ACOL 5.5m. Diameter Shaft and Fans Installation Environmental Risk Assessment 1 PURPOSE & SCOPE The purpose of the risk assessment is to identify the risks, and the controls required to be put in place, to enable the installation of a 5.5m diameter upcast ventilation shaft, fans and associated infrastructure. The scope was limited to environmental and community risks, applicable to the built and natural environment (onsite and offsite), and including public safety (but not ACOL OHS risk or operational asset damage). 2 BACKGROUND ACOL proposes to construct a new 5.5 metre diameter upcast ventilation shaft and install associated extraction fans and ancillary surface infrastructure. This project enables the establishment of sufficient ventilation capacity for the ACOL to safely continue mining operations for a further 12 to 14 years. The proposed site for the planned new main ventilation shaft and fans is located on ACOL owned property, on the surface above the start of longwall block one. The total mine airflow quantity provided by the existing two main fans and backroad supplementary fan combination is estimated to be limited to a maximum of 190m3/s. However, expert consultation has confirmed a requirement to upgrade the mine’s ventilation system to provide between 290m3/s and 365m3/s total volumetric capacity, to safely meet future demands.
