  • Boggabri Volcanics (Hanlon, 1949B) Crop out Around Boggabri (160 Km West of Armidale) in Northern New South Wales (Fig
    Chapter 1: Overview INTRODUCTION The Early Permian Boggabri Volcanics (Hanlon, 1949b) crop out around Boggabri (160 km west of Armidale) in northern New South Wales (Fig. 1). The volcanic rocks are part of the surface expression of a major basement feature of the Gunnedah Basin known as the Boggabri Ridge (Brownlow, 1981b). This ridge trends north-north-westerly through Boggabri and is over 100 km long (largely in the subsurface). The Boggabri Volcanics crop out oN, er an area of about 18 km by 17 km (about 350 km2) immediately north of Boggabri. These volcanic rocks form hills that rise up to about 200 m above the extensive alluvial plain of the Namoi River. The Namoi River cuts through the hills developed on the Boggabri Volcanics, even though they are some of the most resistant rocks in the district. Ir general, topography developed on overlying sedimentary rocks is more subdued except where those rocks are intruded by or capped by Tertiary igneous rocks. REGIONAL GEOLOGICAL SETTING The Gunn edah Basin is part of an extensive, northerly trending basin complex — the Permo-Triassic Sydney-Bowen Basin (Fig. 2). The Sydney-Bowen Basin (SBB) constitutes one of the most prominent features of eastern Australian geology (Mayne et al., 1974; Day et al., 1978; Scheibner, 1989; Tadros, 1993b). It is about 1700 km long, up to 250 km wide, and its fill is up to 10 km thick. The SBB is divided into four segments, namely (from south to north): the northerly trending Sydney Basin which is about 400 km long and up to 200 km wide, the NNW trending Gunnedah Basin which is about 350 km long and up to 200 km wide, the northerly trending Taroom Trough which is about 600 km and 100 km wide, and the NNW trending Bowen Basin which is about 400 km and up to 250 km wide.

  • A Broad Typology of Dry Rainforests on the Western Slopes of New South Wales
    A broad typology of dry rainforests on the western slopes of New South Wales Timothy J. Curran1,2, Peter J. Clarke1, and Jeremy J. Bruhl 1 1 Botany, Centre for Ecology, Evolution and Systematics, University of New England, Armidale NSW 2351, AUSTRALIA. 2 Author for correspondence. Current address: The School for Field Studies, Centre for Rainforest Studies, PO Box 141, Yungaburra, Queensland 4884, AUSTRALIA. [email protected] & [email protected] Abstract: Dry rainforests are those communities that have floristic and structural affinities to mesic rainforests and occur in parts of eastern and northern Australia where rainfall is comparatively low and often highly seasonal. The dry rainforests of the western slopes of New South Wales are poorly-understood compared to other dry rainforests in Australia, due to a lack of regional scale studies. This paper attempts to redress this by deriving a broad floristic and structural typology for this vegetation type. Phytogeographical analysis followed full floristic surveys conducted on 400 m2 plots located within dry rainforest across the western slopes of NSW. Cluster analysis and ordination of 208 plots identified six floristic groups. Unlike in some other regional studies of dry rainforest these groups were readily assigned to Webb structural types, based on leaf size classes, leaf retention classes and canopy height. Five community types were described using both floristic and structural data: 1)Ficus rubiginosa–Notelaea microcarpa notophyll vine thicket, 2) Ficus rubiginosa–Alectryon subcinereus–Notelaea microcarpa notophyll vine forest, 3) Elaeodendron australe–Notelaea microcarpa–Geijera parviflora notophyll vine thicket, 4) Notelaea microcarpa– Geijera parviflora–Ehretia membranifolia semi-evergreen vine thicket, and 5) Cadellia pentastylis low microphyll vine forest.
