    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 75: 239-249, 1991 Published September 11 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. Demographic patterns of the palaemonid prawn Macrobrachium intermedium in southeastern Australia: spatial heterogeneity and the effects of species of seagrass Charles A. Gray* School of Biological Sciences, University of Sydney, 2006, NSW. Australia ABSTRACT. The effects of species of seagrass (Zostera capricorni and Posidonia australis) on spatial and temporal heterogeneity in the demography of estuarine populations of the palaemonid prawn Macrobrachium intermedium across 65 km of the Sydney region, southeastern Australia, were examined. Three estuaries were sampled in 1983 and 1984 to assess the magnitude of intra- and inter- estuary variability in demographic characteristics among populations. Species of seagrass had no effect on the demographic patterns of populations: differences in the magnitude and directions of change in abundances, recruitment, reproductive characteristics, size structures and growth were as great among populations within each species of seagrass as those between the 2 seagrasses Abiotic factors, such as the location of a meadow in relation to depth of water and distance offshore, and the interactions of these factors with recruiting larvae are hypothesised to have greater influence than the species of seagrass in determining the distribution and abundance of these prawns. Spatial and temporal heterogeneity in demography was similar across all spatial scales sampled: among meadows (50 m to 3 km apart) in an estuary and among meadows in all 3 estuaries (10 to 65 km apart). Variability in demographic processes among populations in the Sydney region was most likely due to stochastic factors extrinsic to the seagrasses then~selves.I conclude that the demography of seagrass-dwelling estuarine populations of M.

    1 Pittwater Nature Issue 4 February 2021 News and stories from Bushcarers, Wildlife carers, Community and home gardens The Pittwater River and the Barrenjoey Tombolo We hear a lot about Climate Change and Sea Level Rise. How could this affect our coast- line? It’s happened before. If we’d come here during the last Ice Age, we wouldn’t recognise the place at all. About 14 000 years ago, the Pacific coastline was about 20km further east. Our beaches, so familiar today, did not exist. From today’s Palm Beach, you’d be going a long way downhill for a surf. And you’d need a thick wetsuit. But that landscape would have been familiar to Aboriginal people. When the sea level was lower, streams flowed fast- er and eroded bedrock in river channels. The Hawkesbury River has a huge catchment. Its fast flow eroded the old Pleistocene bedrock channel between Barrenjoey and Box Head so that it is about 125 metres below the present sea level. Seismic investigations of bedrock drainage patterns in Pittwater contained a surprise, for this waterway which now widens out to merge into Broken Bay did not join the ancient Hawkesbury River drainage channels to enter the sea north of Barrenjoey until very recent times, geologically speaking. Our coast 14 000 years ago. The old channel etched into the bedrock under From: The Nature of Hidden Worlds. Mary White Pittwater showed that it was a steep-sided V- shaped valley, parallel to the coast, and deepening steadily towards the north. Off West Head the channel swings abruptly eastward and heads for the ocean across bedrock between Barrenjoey and Palm Beach where the bedrock is at 76 metres below sea level.

The Minister also agreed to consider the Currawong Beach site as a potential State significant site (SSS) under Schedule 3 of the State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Projects) 2005 (Major Projects SEPP). The Minister formed this opinion on the basis that Currawong Beach is a coastal site and of environmental and social importance to the State given its amenity, cultural heritage, ecological, social and historical significance. It has a number of important attributes, including its location adjacent to Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, a significant proportion of high quality native vegetation, known sites of Aboriginal heritage and buildings of potential State heritage significance.

  • Destination Northern Beaches: Creating a Sustainable Visitor Economy 2021
    COVID RECOVERY PLAN & DESTINATION NORTHERN BEACHES: CREATING A SUSTAINABLE VISITOR ECONOMY 2021 THOUGHTS FROM THE PALM BEACH & WHALE BEACH ASSOCIATION FEBRUARY 2021 Tourism/visitation strategies must be respectful of both the Community and the Environment. Achieving the correct balance between residents, the environment and business/livelihood is paramount and very delicate. In the end, we will all suffer if we get it wrong. Council's DESTINATION NORTHERN BEACHES document recognises that there is resistance from residents in the area to promote the Northern Beaches for further large scale business/tourist activity. The scope of this project has to be of a truly sustainable scale. Sustainability must refer to the physical/natural as well as the cultural/social environments. The amenity of the area must be maintained (or better still improved) which is the very thing visitors are drawn to. This document highlights the difficulty of planning for the Northern Beaches LGA as a whole, as this is such a large area broken into five wards, each ward with its own characteristics. In particular the northern end of the northern beaches (Pittwater) has unique geographical characteristics and a delicately balanced environment. It is valued for many reasons: it it seen as clean, green, safe. peaceful and relaxed. It has spectacular scenery, world class beaches and waterways, is accessible to everyone and enjoyed by all age groups. NBC COVID RECOVERY PLAN PBWBA supports the continued implementation of the Council's COVID-19 Summer Action Plan for Outdoor Public Spaces. This plan must continue particularly on weekends, public holidays and school holidays while ever the pandemic continues.
