Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA), Version 7 (Subregions)

Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA) version 7.0 represents a landscape based approach to classifying the land surface of Australia. 89 biogeographic regions and 419 sub regions have been delineated, each reflecting a unifying set of major environmental influences which shape the occurrence of flora and fauna and their interaction with the physical environment across Australia and its external territories (excluding Antarctica). IBRA Version 7.0 data consists of two datasets. IBRA bioregions, which is a larger scale regional classification of homogenous ecosystems, and sub regions, which are more localised. IBRA Version 7.0 is the result of both significant changes to certain IBRA 6.1 boundaries, plus refinement of other boundaries due to better data availability amongst some states and territories, and alterations by the states/territories along state borders. The updated boundaries were jointly defined by the Commonwealth, State and Territory nature and conservation agencies. In this respect refinements were carried out to all mainland jurisdictions with significant changes in Queensland and South Australia. In addition the dataset was also updated to more closely conform to the Geoscience Australia 1:100K State borders, and a standard coding/naming convention introduced (for both regions and sub-regions) resulting in differences to both names and codes used in earlier IBRA Versions.
Various sources were used to delineate islands - these included the GA100K Admin layer plus the Australian Maritime Boundaries dataset, a Coral Sea dataset (held in ERIN) and the GA Commonwealth Fisheries 2006 dataset.

Feral pig habitat in northern Australia - wet season scenario

This dataset describes habitat suitability for feral pig breeding and persistence in northern Australia during the wet season. It is the result of a spatially-explicit, resource-based and regional-scale habitat model that integrated expert knowledge on feral pig breeding requirements and home range movements as well as seasonal variability in environmental conditions.

The modelled habitat suitability index (HSI) can theoretically range between 0 and 100, with higher values indicating better habitat quality for feral pig breeding. Due to modelling methods and assumptions, HSI values in this dataset effectively range between 11 and 81. They can be broadly classified as follows: HSI ≥ 60 = highly suitable habitat; HSI ≥ 40 = moderately suitable habitat; HSI < 40 = unsuitable habitat.

Predicted habitat suitability should not be confused with actual feral pig occurrence. Individuals may be sighted at any time in unsuitable breeding habitat. Conversely, suitable breeding habitat may remain unoccupied. While there is a link between habitat suitability and population density, this may not always be straightforward (i.e. comparable habitat may carry vastly different actual or potential densities depending on the nature and quality of available resources).

Feral pig habitat suitability in northern Australia was modelled for two seasonal scenarios. The wet season scenario captured favourable conditions during the late wet season, when resources required by feral pigs are generally abundant and widely distributed across the region. It was developed using spatial proxies averaged across two months (March/April) over five years (2010 to 2014). Seasonal model results were validated against four independent distributional data sets.

Underlying model parameters were elicited from experts. This dataset represents results from an expert-averaged model run. The model contained a variable "Disturbance stress" for which no spatial proxies were available. In this dataset, we assumed a uniformly “high” intensity and frequency of control activities, which likely overestimated disturbance and may undervalue habitat suitability in situations where there is actually little management.

A detailed description of modelling methods and assumptions is provided in Froese et al. 2017 (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0177018).

## **Abstract** 

This dataset was supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and is presented here as originally supplied. Metadata was not provided and has been compiled by the Bioregional Assessment Programme based on the known details at the time of acquisition



This dataset was sourced from the ABS website: www.abs.gov.au. It did not include comprehensive metadata. 



Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Catalogue Number 2006.0 - Census of Population and Housing: Working Population Profile, 2011 Second Release  



This dataset contains the ABS 2011 Working Population profile for 6 LGA's (Local Government Areas) in the Cooper subregion. These include Barcoo, Bulloo, Quilpie, Diamantina, Longreach Regional and Unincorporated SA. 



The ABS dataset series is described as follows:



The Community Profile Series contains six separate profiles providing information on key Census characteristics relating to persons, families and dwellings and covering most topics on the Census form. The profiles are excellent tools for researching, planning and analysing small and large geographic areas. They enable comparisons to be made between different geographic areas. The available profiles for the 2011 Census are: Basic Community Profile (BCP), Place of Enumeration Profile (PEP), Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples (Indigenous) Profile (IP), Time Series Profile (TSP), Expanded Community Profile (XCP) and the Working Population Profile (WPP). 



The Working Population Profile (WPP) contains 23 tables of key Census characteristics of employed persons. The data are based on where people work. The profile includes data on hours worked, industry of employment, occupation, qualifications and method of travel to work etc.

Flood Extent 100 year extent West Gippsland Catchment Management Authority GIP v140701

## **Abstract** 

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied:



This shapefile contains flood mapping for a theoretical 1% AEP (100 year ARI) flood event for the West Gippsland CMA region.  It includes mapping from various flood studies, historical flood events and ground-truthing exercises.

## **Purpose** 

Much of the mapping has been tested through planning scheme amendments and their associated community consultation and exhibition requirements.  It is current to November 2014 but it is important to note that it is a dynamic dataset that is progressively updated as flood studies are completed or new data comes to hand.  With this in mind, it is likely that it will be different to the State-maintained Victorian Flood Database, which is only updated periodically.

## **Dataset History** 

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.



Note each feature has a value for method, source, reliability and scale in the attribute table.

## **Abstract** 

The figure was constructed by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from (Goldie Divko et al., 2009) and drawing on information from (Pratt, 1985) and (Brumley and Holdgate, 1983). The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement. 



The figure provides an overview of the onshore stratigraphy of the Gippsland Basin bioregion including Tarwin and Moe Swamp sub-basins. Prior to the creation of this figure, there was not a stratigraphic diagram that represented these areas all togeteher.

## **Purpose** 

The figure provides an overview of the onshore stratigraphy of the Gippsland Basin bioregion.

## **Dataset History** 

The diagram was created by Veronika Galinec at Geoscience Australia. Prior to this diagram, there was no diagram available in the literature to describe the stratigraphy of all these elements together. The diagram is adapted from the work of Goldie Divko et al, 2009 (Gippsland Basin onshore), Pratt, 1985 (Tarwin Sub-basin) and Brumley and Holdgate, 1983 (Moe Swamp Sub-basin).

Victorian Farm Dam Boundaries

## **Abstract** 

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party. The dataset title and abstract are presented here as originally supplied.



This dataset contains the digitised boundaries of farm dams in Victoria using a combination of satellite and aerial imagery.

## **Dataset History** 

Data Set Source:

The State Government of Victoria commissioned a study to determine the location and impact of farm dams within Victoria. A large part of this study was the location and digitising of farm dam boundaries. For the sections of Northern Victoria within the Murray Darling Basin, these boundaries were created for a Geoscience Australia (GA) project. However, the data of capture for these dams is 2005 +/- 12 months. 

To address the data gaps in southern Victoria, all farm dam boundaries outside of the Murray Darling Basin were digitised to the same specifications as the GA data, using imagery from 2009/10. In addition, a sample area of approximately 6000 km2 was chosen in the MDB to investigate the level of change in farm dam development between 2005 and 2009.
