Avondale State Conservation Area Vegetation 2014 VIS_ID 4706

Avondale State Conservation Area vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2014 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region.  Avondale State Conservation Area is located approximately 36 km north east of
Armidale and is accessed via the Rockvale Road. The reserve occurs on eastern side of the central New England Tablelands.  
The vegetation of Avondale State Conservation Area is described and mapped (scale1:10 000) based on ADS40 Imagery (2012). Six floristic communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association) and seven Plant Community Types (VIS) are mapped. These six floristic communities and seven PCTs were mapped based on ground truthing, ADS40 interpretation and landform. Two Threatened Ecological Communities (TECs) were recognised and mapped also.

High Ecological Value Waterways and Water Dependent Ecosystems - BLUE MOUNTAINS LGA

A map of the high ecological value waterways and water dependent ecosystems for the Blue Mountains LGA was prepared by the Science Division of the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment, with input layers and support for the map provided by the former NSW Department of Primary Industries-Fisheries and Department of Industry-Crown Lands and Water. The basis for the map arises from Science Division inputs to strategic planning processes. For example, the map has been included in the Land Use and Infrastructure Implementation Plans for the Wilton (Wilton2040, page 22) and Greater Macarthur (interim plan, page 36) Priority Growth Areas. This map was specifically developed for input to Local Government Local Strategic Planning Statements to support Council’s delivery of Strategy 25.1 of the Greater Sydney Region Plan.
The map shows areas where waterways and water dependent ecosystems are defined as high ecological value, based on definitions, guidelines and policies under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016, Fisheries Management Act 1994 and Water Management Act 2000.  Water dependent ecosystems are defined as wetlands, and flora and fauna that rely on water sources (including groundwater).  The map represents an overlay of 39 indicators being used by the State Government to define high value, however, not all 39 indicators will be present in any one LGA (see Attachment 1 below). For example, there are 20 indicators making up the map for the Blue Mountains LGA. It should also be noted that the individual indicators have not been ground-truthed and it is recommended that field assessments and/or a comparison to local mapping be undertaken prior to any decisions being made.
The map was created by initially placing a 1 ha (to correspond with a lot size) hexagon grid over the LGA, and attributing the grid with the area, length and/or frequency of occurrence of high value water dependent ecosystems. The purpose of the map is to identify strategic planning priorities for protecting and improving the health of high value waterways and water dependent ecosystems in the LGA. Once identified, the priorities can be used as a basis for identifying aquatic biodiversity refugia, stream rehabilitation efforts and setting management targets and/or land use planning controls that would protect or improve the health of waterways and water dependent ecosystems so they provide the essential services and functions expected of a cool blue-green corridor.

Lake Macquarie - Surface water and sediment quality in the vicinity of coal ash repositories

This information asset presents a comprehensive dataset on surface water and sediment quality in the southern section of Lake Macquarie, NSW, Australia. The data was compiled by the Science and Insights Division (S&amp;I) of the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW) as part of an independent assessment commissioned by the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA).
The primary objective of this data collection was to support the EPA’s efforts to deliver the NSW Government's response to the recommendations from the NSW Parliamentary Inquiry report regarding the costs associated with the remediation of coal ash repositories. The information serves as a present-day assessment of the contamination status of Lake Macquarie, providing a baseline for evaluating future changes and the efficacy of mitigation and remediation activities. The outcomes of the investigation are detailed in five standalone reports and an accompanying synthesis report.

Historical Fire Extent and Severity Mapping (FESM)

Fire severity is a metric of the loss of biomass caused by fire. In collaboration with the NSW Rural Fire Service, DCCEEW Remote Sensing &amp; Regulatory Mapping team has developed a semi-automated approach to mapping fire extent and severity through a machine learning framework based on satellite imagery. 
The method uses standardised classes to allow comparison of different fires across the landscape. The FESM severity classes include: unburnt, low severity (burnt understory, unburnt canopy), moderate severity (partial canopy scorch), high severity (complete canopy scorch, partial canopy consumption), extreme (full canopy consumption). 
Here we provide historical severity mapping for 8 priority regions on National Parks land tenure from 1989/90 to 2015/16, which is based on Landsat satellite imagery. This covers approximately 30% of the NPWS Managed Lands, across a wide range of vegetation types. From 2016/17 to the current fire year, these regions are covered in the statewide FESM data, which is based on Sentinel 2 satellite imagery. Ongoing FESM processing aims to achieve statewide coverage back to 1989/90, in staged released, as resources permit.

Soil Carbon Accounts 2021. Experimental Account for NSW.

This data cube presents accounts for Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) stocks and flows in New South Wales. These accounts form part of the Natural Capital Markets and Accounts branch Soil Ecosystem Services theme, which currently includes a Soil Organic Carbon physical stock account (SOC storage), and a Soil Organic Carbon physical flow account (SOC sequestration). These accounts are intended to help policy makers identify where to implement programs to maintain stocks of soil organic carbon and to increase carbon sequestration, as part of the NSW NetZero Plan. As well as accounts for physical stocks and flows, this suite of accounts includes a linked socio-economic profile. This profile comprises socio-economic information for ABS Statistical Area 2 (SA2) geographies for NSW and provides information on the socio-economic structure of the local economy of each SA2 and its major types of economic activity.  The socio-economic profile is intended to help account users identify the economic activities and related land uses in each SA2 which may affect the extent and condition of the SOC stocks shown in the accounts.

Bluff River Nature Reserve Vegetation VIS_ID 4714

Bluff River Nature Reserve vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2002 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. It is described in the Vegetation and Floristics of the Tenterfield Nature Reserves report which includes Bluff River, Bolivia Hill, Curry’s Gap, Gibraltar &amp; Mt McKenzie. All reserves lie north of Glenn Innes and south of Tenterfield on the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales and the New England Tablelands Bioregion. The local government regions for all reserves are the Tenterfield Shire and the County of Clive.  Bluff River NR is located approximately 35 km north of Deepwater and incorporates 1793 ha.
The vegetation of five reserves within the Tenterfield area is described and mapped (scale 1:50 000). Fifteen communities are defined based on PATN analysis and an additional community is mapped based on information derived from previous investigations. These fifteen communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Seven communities are considered of conservation importance with two of which were considered endangered and one should be considered vulnerable. Most communities are of woodland structure, although sedgelands, heaths, grasslands, open forests and tall open forests also occur. Many of the communities show considerable variation and intergrade along common boundaries and in particular on intermediate soil types. Physiography was the major correlative influence on community distribution, however protection from the north west and east, time since fire, grazing and geographic locality were also strongly correlated.
