Lower Swan Canning Estuary to Upper Swan Estuary Water Quality Monitoring 2015-16

The Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) conducts routine monitoring of water quality in the Swan Canning Estuary. Data collected through the monitoring program is used to inform management of the river system by DBCA.

Data produced through the monitoring program provides essential information to assess system response to management actions and to report against estuary water quality targets, and phytoplankton trigger levels. Data produced have also been utilised in numerous investigations conducted by both government agencies and tertiary institutions, including modelling, that contribute to our understanding of estuary condition and response and that evaluate potential impacts on the system into the future.

Data collected is stored in the Water Information Network (WIN) database maintained by the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation (DWER) and is made publicly available via the Water Information Reporting (WIR) portal.

BirdLife/Wirambi Landcare Tree Martin (Petrochelidon nigricans) Survey

Over a five-month period, from September 2024 to January 2025, vehicle-based surveys of street power poles identified 33 Tree Martin nests, 30 of which were in the cross bars of street power poles. Most of the nests were close to remnant, native vegetation (52%) or urban parkland (21%), and almost half of all nests were within 500m of a wetland (48%).

Bird survey data from the Eucalyptus salubris chronosequence 2013

Dataset of bird survey results at the multi-century Eucalyptus salubris (gimlet) chronosequence in the Great Western Woodlands, south-western Australia. This data has been used to describe responses of bird species, functional groups and community composition to time since fire (Gosper et al. 2019a,b). Bird surveys used the 20 minute-2ha method, recording abundance, and are reported on an individual survey basis. Data collection was funded by BirdLife Australia, The Nature Conservancy, the Thomas Foundation, CSIRO Land and Water and the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.

Woody Change 2014-2015 (LGATE-391)

Vegetation change products are produced annually identifying locations where the perennial woody vegetation from the vegetation cover datasets based on Landsat imagery (30m ground pixel) has changed between the forest, sparse woody and non woody classifications. Change classes include; no change, non-woody to sparse, non-woody to forest, sparse to non-woody, forest to non-woody and forest to sparse.

Vegetation Cover 2015 (LGATE-421)

State-wide vegetation cover datasets of perennial woody vegetation based on Landsat imagery (30m ground pixel) are produced annually with data starting in 1988 to current. The classification of woody perennial vegetation is provided in two classes, one forest category meeting the vegetation structural requirement for 20% cover density and 2m height at maturity, and a sparse woody vegetation category identifying areas with 5- 20% vegetation cover.

Biological survey of wetlands of the Jurien coast

Biological surveys of wetlands along the Jurien coast have been funded by offsets from CSR Gyrock. Stage 1 was a survey of aquatic invertebrates undertaken in 2011/12 and was co-funded by Department of Water. Stage 2 is a survey of wetland associated vegetation and frogs.

The invertebrate survey is complete and has been submitted as a paper in the Journal of the Royal Society of WA and as a report on diversity of springs to Dept Water, both provided below.

As of January 2015, the botanical and amphibian surveys are in progress.
