  • Biodiversity Distribution
    Waveney Open Space Needs Assessment | July 2015 Biodiversity Distribution Biodiversity refers to all of the natural world and all living organisms within it including plants, animals, bacteria and micro organisms. www.waveney.gov.uk/planningpolicy 19 Waveney Open Space Needs Assessment | July 2015 | Biodiversity Distribution www.waveney.gov.uk/planningpolicy 20 Waveney Open Space Needs Assessment | July 2015 | Biodiversity Distribution What is biodiversity? Biodiversity refers to all of the natural world and all living organisms within it, including plants, animals, bacteria and micro organisms. The convention on biodiversity defines it as: “The variability among living organisms from all sources including terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems, and the ecological complexes of which they are part; this includes diversity within species, between species and of ecosystems” (Source: Natural England website). Introduction to the biodiversity distribution assessment Waveney District has a wide range of wildlife and habitats, including coastline, parkland, arable fields, rivers, hedges and woodlands. Many of these are extremely valuable in their own right and require protection and enhancement. These sites often also form part of a wider network of sites and wildlife corridors that increase the range of habitats that can support local wildlife. Networks of biologically valuable sites often have greater value than each of the sites individually. For this reason Waveney District Council wants to map ecological sites and networks to better understand how they can function alongside other types of green infrastructure. The Waveney District Council Biodiversity Audit was completed in 2007 by Suffolk Wildlife Trust. This biodiversity audit included officially designated sites, county wildlife sites and other sites that were considered to have ecological value.

Natural and semi-natural green spaces have been defined as “land, water and geological features which have been naturally colonised by plants and animals and which are accessible on foot to large numbers of residents2.” They are areas of undeveloped land with limited or no maintenance which have been colonised by vegetation and wildlife and include woodland, railway embankments, river and canal banks, road verges and derelict land. The primary function of natural and semi-natural green space is to promote biodiversity and nature conservation but they are also important for environmental education and awareness. This section of the Open Space Needs Assessment provides an overview of natural and semi-natural green space. It follows on from the ‘Biodiversity Distribution’ section which has considered open space with biodiversity value.

  • Lowestoft Open Space Needs Assessment (Created with Reference to the Waveney Open Space Needs Assessment 2015)
    Lowestoft Open Space Needs Assessment (Created with reference to the Waveney Open Space Needs Assessment 2015) January 2018 Lowestoft Town Council Open Spaces Assessment 1 Background Open space offers significant benefits to local communities. Open space can positively contribute towards sustaining and improving the local environment and have an important role in enhancing quality of life and attracting people to live and work in the area. Green space and recreational opportunities contribute significantly to the perception of attractiveness of a locality. This report comprises of several assessments and discussions to provide an overview of green space in the town and how provision meets the needs of people in Lowestoft. The assessment includes an audit of parks and gardens, amenity green spaces, play spaces and allotments located within Lowestoft and is compiled using a document produced by Waveney District Council. Because of this some of the stats are Lowestoft wide and not just related to the area covered by Lowestoft Town Council. Areas of biodiversity value have been identified and information relating to areas important to the biodiversity network has been collated and discussed. An overview of natural and semi-natural green space and cemeteries is provided and discussed in the context of the green infrastructure network and their contribution towards biodiversity. Green corridors that can support the movement of people and wildlife in the built-up areas of the town and habitats which provide key linkages in the green infrastructure network for people and wildlife are discussed. There was a previous Waveney Open Space Needs Assessment which was completed in 2006.
