  • Observations of the Powerful Owl Ninox Strenua in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven Regions of New South Wales
    VOL. 14 (8) DECEMBER 199 289 CLUB STRALIAN BIRD WATCHER 1992, 14, 289-300 Observations of the Powerful Owl Ninox strenua in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven Regions of New South Wales by C.J. CHAFER, 69 Lake Heights Road, Lake Heights, N.S.W. 2502 Summary Data on the diet, habitat, breeding biology and general ecology of the Powerful Owl Ninox strenua were analysed from eleven locations in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven regions of the southern central coast of New South Wales. These data show that Common Ringtail Possum Pseudocheirus peregrinus comprised 36%, Sugar Glider Petaurus breviceps 31 % and birds 13% of the regional diet by number, based on a combination of regurgitated pellet analysis from four sites and cumulative observations of apprehended prey from ten sites. Quantified pellet analysis is presented from two locations, Bass Point and Culburra. At the former site Common Ringtail Possum comprised 45% of the local diet and at the latter site Sugar Glider comprised 73% of the recorded diet. A total of ten mammal species, including two Feral Cats Felis catus, eleven avian species and two coleopteran genera were contained in the regional diet. Habitat from which the owl is recorded includes moist and dry open forest from an elevated plateau, littoral closed forest, coastal open forest and riparian closed forest. Breeding is reported from three sites falling within the known breeding season, however the mean height of the nest hollows (9.3 m) is below the previously recorded minima. A nocturnal attack by a Powerful Owl on a Tawny Frogmouth Podargus strigoides is also described.

  • Around Shellharbour
    Around Shellharbour The Shellharbour region south of Wollongong is attracting ever- increasing numbers of residents but there are still plenty of natural areas to be enjoyed. At its northern boundary, the entrance to Lake Illawarra features numerous small islands worth exploring, while to the south the Minnamurra River makes a picturesque exit to the Tasman Sea. The coastline in between is spectacular, with attractive beaches and wild headlands wrought by volcanic activity. Inland, Macquarie Pass breaches the Escarpment along a route long used by Aboriginal people and the regenerating rainforest is quietly obliterating signs of early attempts to disturb it. These diverse environments offer habitats for a variety of birds and animals, so walkers might want to take a pair of binoculars with them, plus a snorkel and mask if visiting beautiful Bass Point. Premier Illawarra buses link the region with Wollongong and Kiama and can be used to access several of the coastal walks.

  • Vulnerability of Indigenous Heritage Sites to Changing Sea Levels: Piloting a GIS-Based Approach in the Illawarra, New South Wales, Australia
    78 Vulnerability of Indigenous Heritage Sites to Changing Sea Levels: Piloting a GIS-Based Approach in the Illawarra, New South Wales, Australia Samuel Knot School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Wollongong Katherine Szabó School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Wollongong Mal Ridges Ofce of Environment and Heritage, University of New England Richard Fullagar School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Wollongong Introduction Te risks posed by sea level rise to many coastal archaeological sites have driven a number of investigations and projects over the last decade. In the United Kingdom and France, for example, charity-driven initiatives have been implemented to investigate rising sea levels and their impacts on heritage sites. In Scotland, there is Scotish Coastal Archaeology and the Problem of Erosion (SCAPE; see Graham et al. this edition); in England, the Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey (RCZAS); and, in France, Archéologie Litorale et Réchaufement Terrestre (ALeRT) (Reeder-Myers 2015). Tese national initiatives usually focus on survey- ing the entire coastline and any nearby heritage sites, helping to identify the sites most at risk to the impacts of erosion and sea level rise. Similar approaches are less useful, however, in countries with much longer coastlines, like the United States and Australia (Reeder-Myers 2015). Along the coastline of the Illawarra region of New South Wales, Australia (fg. 1), the traditional home of the Dharawal people, there are many Archaeological Review from Cambridge 32.2 Samuel Knot, Katherine Szabó, Mal Ridges and Richard Fullager | 79 Fig. 1.

The information, opinions and advice contained in this report may not relate to, or be relevant to, a reader's particular circumstance. No person should rely upon this document for the purposes of making any business, investment or real estate decision. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The expansion of a marine aquaculture industry in NSW relies on the supply of juveniles from commercial aquaculture hatcheries and associated facilities. Marine aquaculture facilities require a reliable supply of high quality, oceanic water and a suitable land-based site; the latter to accommodate a hatchery and associated buildings. Ideally, these two prerequisites should be in close proximity (< 1km) to avoid large construction costs or problems associated with the logistics of pumping water over long distances. Site selection is paramount in determining the success or failure of aquaculture businesses. The NSW coastline is currently undergoing rapid change as a result of continued pressure to allocate areas for residential development, parks, reserves, recreation and wildness areas.
