  • Macrofaunal Community Structure of Beaches in Northern New South Wales, Australia

School o f Biological Sciences. University o f New England. Armidale. NSW 2351. Australia Abstract. Macrofaunal community composition of ten exposed sandy beaches in northern New South Wales, Australia, appeared to correlate with beach morphodynamic state even though the data represented sampling at only a single time. Better results were obtained by using the Beach State Index (BSI) rather than the dimensionless fall velocity (Q). Species number and abundance significantly increased as the BSI value increased, whereas biomass was not correlated with BSI. The New South Wales beaches had a higher species number and abundance relative to BSI than did beaches in a published review of beaches around the world. Introduction contained in the surf zone. In contrast, reflective beaches, Macrofaunal communities of Australian beaches have displaying coarse sediment and low waves, are considered been studied by Dexter (1983, 1984, 1985), McLachlan and low-energy beaches.

Vegetation and flora of Booti Booti National Park and Yahoo Nature Reserve, lower North Coast of New South Wales. Cunninghamia 6(3): 645–715. The vegetation of Booti Booti National Park and Yahoo Nature Reserve on the lower North Coast of New South Wales has been classified and mapped from aerial photography at a scale of 1: 25 000. The plant communities so identified are described in terms of their composition and distribution within Booti Booti NP and Yahoo NR. The plant communities are also discussed in terms of their distribution elsewhere in south-eastern Australia, with particular emphasis given to the NSW North Coast where compatible vegetation mapping has been undertaken in many additional areas. Floristic relationships are also examined by numerical analysis of full-floristics and foliage cover data for 48 sites. A comprehensive list of vascular plant taxa is presented, and significant taxa are discussed. Management issues relating to the vegetation of the reserves are outlined. Introduction The study area Booti Booti National Park (1586 ha) and Yahoo Nature Reserve (48 ha) are situated on the lower North Coast of New South Wales (32°15'S 152°32'E), immediately south of Forster in the Great Lakes local government area (Fig.

Its priorities are to: create the optimal conditions in Australia to stimulate investment in the development and deployment of world’s best clean energy technologies; develop effective legislation and regulation to improve energy efficiency; and work to reduce costs and remove all other barriers to accessing clean energy. The CEC works with members and the government to identify and address the barriers to efficient industry development in the stationary energy sector and energy efficiency. The clean energy industry and its members contribute to the generation of electricity using wind, hydro, solar, biomass, geothermal and ocean energy as well as the emerging technologies and service providers in the energy efficiency sector including solar hot water and cogeneration. The CEC welcomes this opportunity to provide a submission in response to the QLD Parliament Environment and Resources Committee’s Inquiry into Queensland’s Renewable Energy Electricity Sector. Policy Opportunities With its diverse clean energy industry, abundant energy resources and its commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to mitigate the effects of climate change, Queensland is an ideal location to become a leader in the renewable energy industry. To transform to a low carbon economy will require the accelerated deployment of proven clean energy technologies such as wind, hydro, biomass, photovoltaic and cogeneration and the accelerated development of emerging technologies such as solar thermal, geothermal and wave/ocean power.
