  • Two Centuries of Botanical Exploration Along the Botanists Way, Northern Blue Mountains, N.S.W: a Regional Botanical History That Refl Ects National Trends
    Two Centuries of Botanical Exploration along the Botanists Way, Northern Blue Mountains, N.S.W: a Regional Botanical History that Refl ects National Trends DOUG BENSON Honorary Research Associate, National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain Trust, Sydney NSW 2000, AUSTRALIA. [email protected] Published on 10 April 2019 at https://openjournals.library.sydney.edu.au/index.php/LIN/index Benson, D. (2019). Two centuries of botanical exploration along the Botanists Way, northern Blue Mountains,N.S.W: a regional botanical history that refl ects national trends. Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales 141, 1-24. The Botanists Way is a promotional concept developed by the Blue Mountains Botanic Garden at Mt Tomah for interpretation displays associated with the adjacent Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area (GBMWHA). It is based on 19th century botanical exploration of areas between Kurrajong and Bell, northwest of Sydney, generally associated with Bells Line of Road, and focussed particularly on the botanists George Caley and Allan Cunningham and their connections with Mt Tomah. Based on a broader assessment of the area’s botanical history, the concept is here expanded to cover the route from Richmond to Lithgow (about 80 km) including both Bells Line of Road and Chifl ey Road, and extending north to the Newnes Plateau. The historical attraction of botanists and collectors to the area is explored chronologically from 1804 up to the present, and themes suitable for visitor education are recognised. Though the Botanists Way is focused on a relatively limited geographic area, the general sequence of scientifi c activities described - initial exploratory collecting; 19th century Gentlemen Naturalists (and lady illustrators); learned societies and publications; 20th century publicly-supported research institutions and the beginnings of ecology, and since the 1960s, professional conservation research and management - were also happening nationally elsewhere.

PERCIVAL3 1Honorary Associate, School of Geosciences, University of Sydney, NSW 2006 ([email protected]); 2Honorary Associate, Geological Survey of NSW, WB Clarke Geoscience Centre, Londonderry NSW 2753 ([email protected]); 3Geological Survey of NSW, WB Clarke Geoscience Centre, Londonderry NSW 2753 ([email protected]) Published on 30 May 2014 at http://escholarship.library.usyd.edu.au/journals/index.php/LIN Branagan, D.F., Pickett, J.W. and Percival, I.G. (2014). Geology and Geomorphology of Jenolan Caves and the Surrounding Region. Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales 136, 99-130. Detailed mapping by university students and staff since the 1980s has significantly elucidated previously poorly known stratigraphic and structural relationships in the Jenolan Caves region. Apart from andesite of ?Ordovician age, rocks west of the caves probably correlate with the lower Silurian Campbells Group. That succession is faulted against the Silurian (mid Wenlockian) Jenolan Caves Limestone, in which caves developed during several episodes from the late Palaeozoic. Immediately east of Jenolan Caves, siliciclastic sedimentary and volcaniclastic rocks with interbedded silicic lavas constitute the newly defined Inspiration Point Formation, correlated with the upper Silurian to Lower Devonian Mount Fairy Group. Several prominent marker units are recognised, including limestone previously correlated with the main Jenolan limestone belt. Extensive strike-slip and thrust faulting disrupts the sequence, but in general the entire Silurian succession youngs to the east, so that beds apparently steeply-dipping westerly are actually overturned.

  • Oberon Council
    OBERON COUNCIL Local Strategic Planning Statement 2040 “Oberon – more than you imagine” Document Status Author Date Doc stage Rev No. 1 Oberon Council March 2020 Pre exhibition draft 2 Oberon Council May 2020 Exhibition draft 3 Oberon Council June 2020 Final i Mayor’s Foreword To develop a vision for land use for the next twenty years the Oberon Council Strategic Planning Statement (LSPS) considers land use trends that are currently occurring in the Local Government Area (LGA) and anticipates others that may likely emerge. The continued importance of agriculture, forestry, lifestyle and tourism is acknowledged and planning actions are included in this document to ensure ongoing viability in these areas. However we must also be cognisant of the fact that the use of agricultural land is changing across the country. Council is looking at planning strategies to increase employment opportunities in both the manufacturing and farming sectors through value adding and new development. Currently Oberon is enjoying popularity as a lifestyle option with many new residents choosing to move here and embrace our lifestyle. The LSPS looks to expand upon this trend and analyse what will be required to further enhance the popularity of Oberon whilst minimising risks to new residents posed by bushfire, flooding and other natural disasters. “Oberon – more than you imagine” is the vision of Council community strategic plan with the mission being “A prosperous town, village and rural communities set amongst the rolling hills, rivers, forests, mountains and caves of the Great Divide. Breathe fresh air in a landscape of light, colour and seasonal beauty.

  • 1 CHAPTER 1 . INTRODUCTION Sydney Beaches and Indeed The
    1 CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION Sydney Beaches and indeed the majority of beaches along the South East coast of Australia are subject to orthogonal rather than longshore wave-power and for this reason, sediment movement is predominantly onshore-offshore. Studies of wave-sediment interaction at Narrabeen (Short, in press) suggest that the beach system operates as a compartment with the seaward boundary marked by a textural discontinuity. A number of studies along the Sydney Coast, have described local sediment (Gibbons, Dee Why 1967), rip-currents (McKenzie, 1958), Beach erosion (Foster et al, Cronulla, 1963)» Bilgola, 1966, Avalon, 1967, Collaroy, 1968) and energy-sediment inter­ action (Cowell, Palm Beach, 1975), (Bryant, Palm Beach, 1976), (Lees, Cronulla, 1977), (Phillips, Dee Why - Long Reef, 1977). However, the submarine extent of the Sydney Beaches remains an unknown through essential factor in understanding beach s e dim en t budget s. Initially, this thesis was aimed at identifying the seaward extent of each beach system in terms of the null- point hypothesis and thus, the textural discontinuity. The null-point concept and the closely related equilibrium profile attempts to model the complex nearshore wave-sediment interaction. The seaward-fining textural gradient characteristic of the nearshore zone, (Swift et al, 1971) is a result of the relationship between average sediment particle size and the amount of wave energy penetrating the sea-bed. The null-point concept utilizes asymmetric wave ripples as the fundamental hydraulic mechanism for nearshore transport. For any given grain size, a line of no movement or null-line exists where gravity and fluid forces balance and the grains are in a state of oscillating equilibrium (Swift, 1970).
