Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales 134, B119-B134. How we manage National Parks (protected areas or reserves) for their biodiversity is an issue of current debate. At the centre of this issue is the role of ecological research and its ability to guide reserve management. One may assume that ecological science has suffi cient theory and empirical evidence to offer a prescription of how reserves should be managed. I use Royal National Park (Royal NP) as a case study to examine how ecological science should be used to inform biodiversity conservation. Ecological research relating to reserve management can be: i) of generic application to reserve management, ii) specifi c to the reserve in which it is conducted, and iii) conducted elsewhere but be of relevance due to the circumstances (e.g. species) of another reserve. I outline how such research can be used to inform management actions within Royal NP. I also highlight three big challenges for biodiversity management in Royal NP: i) habitat connectivity, ii) habitat degradation and iii) fi re management.

The track traverses several ephemeral wet areas which are highly Service Directorate Volunteers Australia sensitive to disturbance. Foot traffic through such terrain leads to increased water turbidity, erosion and damage to fragile native vegetation. The improved boardwalk and walking tracks will ensure that the community can access this significant Indigenous cultural feature, while having a minimal impact on the fragile environmental integrity of the location. The rock art site is highly significant to the Ngunnawal people, and provides a valuable insight and understanding of Aboriginal history and culture in the region. Connecting the Community to Natural The project will create formal and controlled public access tracks to replace a network of informal tracks between high visitation sites in ACT Territory and Municipal Conservation and Cultural Heritage in ACT Parks 2 the Namadgi National Park and Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve. The current tracks pose a threat to native habitat and vegetation, along with Service Directorate Volunteers Australia the range of erosion, weed infestation and problems associated with unrestricted access and high usage. The project will identify and construct a formal track between the popular features. One of the features, Gibraltar Falls, is also a significant site for the local Indigenous community.

  • 1. Introduction
    1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION The Clarence River estuary and surrounding coastline, northern New South Wales, Australia (Figures 1.1 and 1.2), is host to a number of Aboriginal shell midden deposits. These deposits are found in a variety of geomorphic environments including estuarine sites (riverbank/creekbank) and coastal sites (beach foredune, headland). The availability of study sites in a variety of geomorphic environments, coupled with the enthusiasm of the Yaegl Local Aboriginal Land Council (LALC) to participate in the study meant the study area was an ideal location to undertake research into geomorphic processes affecting the accumulation, degradation and preservation of Aboriginal shell midden sites. The ancestral Yaegl community inhabited the land surrounding the mouth of the Clarence River and spoke the language Yaygirr (Muurbay Aboriginal Language and Culture Cooperative). At the time of European contact the Yaegl people had a well developed material culture, including sophisticated wooden canoes and permanent settlements comprising large bark huts (McSwan, 1978). By as early as 1929, however, only a couple of Yaygirr speakers remained, and the language was no longer spoken right through (Muurbay Aboriginal Language and Culture Cooperative). Given the rich ancestral history of the area and its Indigenous inhabitants, the current Yaegl Local Aboriginal Land Council are highly active in, and determined to, preserve all possible aspects of their cultural history. This research project makes a significant contribution to this aim. Providing the Yaegl LALC with effective site-specific conservation management recommendations, as well as more general, environment-specific management guidelines for broader application, requires a comprehensive understanding of the processes causing accumulation, degradation and preservation of midden sites, referred to as site formation processes.
