  • CHANGES in SOUTHWESTERN TASMANIAN FIRE REGIMES SINCE the EARLY 1800S
    Papers and Proceedings o/the Royal Society o/Tasmania, Volume 132, 1998 IS CHANGES IN SOUTHWESTERN TASMANIAN FIRE REGIMES SINCE THE EARLY 1800s by Jon B. Marsden-Smedley (with five tables and one text-figure) MARSDEN-SMEDLEY, ].B., 1998 (31:xii): Changes in southwestern Tasmanian fire regimes since the early 1800s. Pap.Proc. R. Soc. Tasm. 132: 15-29. ISSN 0040-4703. School of Geography and Environmental Studies, University of Tasmania, GPO Box 252-78, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 7001. There have been major changes in the fire regime of southwestern Tasmania over the past 170 years. The fire regime has changed from an Aboriginal fire regime of frequent low-intensity fires in buttongrass moorland (mostly in spring and autumn) with only the occasional high-intensity forest fire, to the early European fire regime of frequent high-intensity fires in all vegetation types, to a regime of low to medium intensity buttongrass moorland fires and finally to the current regime of few fires. These changes in the fire regime resulted in major impacts to the region's fire-sensitive vegetation types during the early European period, while the current low fire frequency across much of southwestern Tasmania has resulted in a large proportion of the region's fire-adapted buttongrass moorland being classified as old-growth. These extensive areas of old-growth buttongrass moorland mean that the potential for another large-scale ecologically damaging wildfire is high and, to avoid this, it would be better to re-introduce a regime oflow-intensity fires into the region. Key Words: fire regimes, fire management, southwestern Tasmania, Aboriginal fire, history.

  • Regional Classification of Tasmanian Coastal Waters
    REGIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF TASMANIAN COASTAL WATERS AND PRELIMINARY IDENTIFICATION OF REPRESENTATIVE MARINE PROTECTED AREA SITES G.J. Edgar, J. Moverley, D. Peters and C. Reed Ocean Rescue 2000 - Marine Protected Area Program 1993/94 Project No. D705 Report to: Australian Nature Conservation Authority From: Parks and Wildlife Service, Department of Environment & Land Management 134 Macquarie St, Hobart, Tasmania 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Analysis of the distribution of reef plants and animals at over 150 sites around the Tasmanian coastline and Bass Strait islands indicated that Bass Strait reef communities were distinctly different from those occurring further south. This major division in reef ecosystems reflected a boundary near Cape Grim and Little Musselroe Bay between two biogeographical provinces. Each of the two bioprovinces was divisible into four biogeographical regions (bioregions), which occurred along the northern Tasmanian coast and at the Kent Group, Furneaux Group and King Island in Bass Strait, and along the northeastern, southeastern, southern and western coasts of Tasmania. In contrast to these patterns identified using data on coastal reef communities, regional classifications for estuarine and soft-sediment faunas (based on the distribution of beach-washed shells and beach-seined fishes) were less clearly defined. In order to manage and protect Tasmanian inshore plants and animals in accordance with the principle of ecologically sustainable development, an integrated system of representative marine protected areas is considered

A review of the known natural values for this extension and the threats to those values highlighted significant knowledge gaps (Balmeret al., 2017). To redress these knowedge gaps, at least partially, a multi-disciplinary survey was undertaken in November 2019 to document flora, fauna and geodiversity values in part of the extension area known as the Central North Sector (CNS).
