Again, in January, 1927, at the kind invi­ tation of Mr. M. R. Freney, I visited the S-outh C-oast and Port Davey in the ketch Len'IUL (S. Purdon, Skipper). Messrs. P. B. Nye and F.

  • 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.

Port Davey and associated Bathurst Harbour in south-western Tasmania represent one of the world’s most anomalous estuarine systems owing to an unusual combination of environmental factors. These include: (i) large uninhabited catchment protected as a National Park; (ii) ria geomorphology but with fjord characteristics that include a shallow entrance and deep 12-km long channel connecting an almost land-locked harbour to the sea; (iii) high rainfall and riverine input that generate strongly-stratified estuarine conditions, with a low-salinity surface layer and marine bottom water; (iv) a deeply tannin-stained surface layer that blocks light penetration to

  • Eroding Landforms Within the Port Davey Ria Estuary Complex: Wave Wake Or Sea Level Rise?
    Eroding landforms within the Port Davey ria estuary complex: wave wake or sea level rise? Monitoring report for the decade 2000 – 2010 Jason Bradbury Geodiversity Conservation and Management Resource Management and Conservation Division Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment 15 April 2011 Eroding ria estuaries of Port Davey Summary The Port Davey region and its catchment area lie entirely within the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area and are in largely natural condition. Several discrete sub-estuaries contain a complex assemblage of depositional Holocene landforms that, due to their intimate genetic association with flora (and possibly fauna) of Gondwanan affinity, are probably globally unusual if not unique. Despite the depositional context a monitoring programme first established in 1992 has consistently recorded widespread erosion at a rate of a few millimetres per year. This paper reports some monitoring results and geomorphological observations collected over the past decade and makes the following recommendations with respect to management of vessel wave wake: • maintain the existing five knot speed limit in Melaleuca Inlet and Creek; • introduce a five knot speed limit on the Davey River upstream of Brookes Reach, • close Manwoneer Inlet to motorised boating, While many of the bank types present are susceptible to vessel wave wake the distribution of erosion indicates that wake is not the principle cause of the erosion recorded. It is concluded that sea level rise presents the most likely mechanism to effect the observed erosion and that in the otherwise essentially undisturbed Port Davey catchment estuarine change from a depositional to erosional regime is a clear marker of the onset of the Anthropocene epoch (in which the geological record is characterised by significant human influence).
