Mapping the distribution of Northern Australia threatened species (NESP MB A12)

Of the ~80 EPBC-listed Threatened and Migratory marine species known to occur in the North Marine Bioregion, 16 were identified as priority species through consultation with research end-users and experts. The priority group consisted of three sawfishes, two river sharks, Dugong, two inshore dolphins, six shorebirds and two turtles. Dwarf and then Green Sawfish had the most data gaps, indicating that these were the most poorly-known of the selected priority species in the North Marine Bioregion, and as such are a priority for research. These were followed (in order of data gaps) by the other river sharks and sawfishes, inshore dolphins, Hawksbill Turtle, Dugong, Olive Ridley Turtle, and shorebirds. Research assessing the relevance and impact of pressures was identified as a gap for all species. New data identified during the project can fill data gaps for all 16 species, and the analysis of these datasets can improve the accuracy of distribution maps, but new data collection is still required for all sharks and sawfishes, Hawksbill Turtle, and inshore dolphins to improve data coverage for distribution modelling and mapping.

Phase 1 of the project involved a gap analysis with identified numerous new datasets, both published and unpublished, that are currently not incorporated into SPRAT profiles and distributions (see Table 5). This provided an opportunity to begin compiling and analysing this information to fill current data gaps, as well as identify targeted research needs for the future.

Phase 2 of the project built on collaboration with data custodians to develop data sharing agreements for use of these datasets to construct spatial models to refine and update species distributions.

Hydrographic, nutrient and phytoplankton biomass surveys in Palm Passage, central Great Barrier Reef (1983)

A transect of nine oceanographic stations, extending from the GBR lagoon to the outer slope, was surveyed through Palm Passage (central Great Barrier Reef) in 1983, with an emphasis on the summer upwelling period. In total, 128 temperature and salinity profiles were obtained. Water samples were collected at five stations on the shelf and the outer slope (total = 100 stations) for analysis of inorganic nutrients and phytoplankton pigments. The frequency of sampling was most intense during the late summer (January - March), with five cruises of six days duration at one to three week intervals. During these cruises, the transect was occupied very second day. For the remainder of the year, single transects were occupied at intervals of approximately two months.

IMOS - National Reef Monitoring Network Sub-Facility - Benthic cover data (in situ surveys)

The National Reef Monitoring Network brings together shallow reef surveys conducted around Australia into a centralised database. The IMOS National Reef Monitoring Network sub-Facility collates, cleans, stores and makes this data rapidly available from contributors including: Reef Life Survey, Parks Australia, Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (Western Australia), Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources (South Australia), Department of Primary Industries (New South Wales), Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service and Parks Victoria.

The data provided by the National Reef Monitoring Network contributes to establishing and supporting national marine baselines, and assisting with the management of Commonwealth and State marine reserves. 

The Australian Temperate Reef Network (ATRC) aims to improve biodiversity conservation and the sustainable management of marine resources by coordinating surveys of rocky and coral reefs using scientific methods, with the ultimate goal to improve coastal stewardship. Our activities depend on the skills of marine scientists, experienced and motivated recreational SCUBA divers, partnerships with management agencies and university researchers, and active input from the ATRC partners.

ATRC data are freely available to the public for non-profit purposes, so not only managers, but also groups such as local dive clubs or schools may use these data to look at changes over time in their own local reefs. By making data freely available and through public outputs, ATRC aims to raise broader community awareness of the status of Australia's marine biodiversity and associated conservation issues.

This dataset contains data on the cover of macroalage and sessile invertebrates collected in situ at Australian Temperate Reef Collaboration (ATRC) sites. Quadrats are placed at 10 m spacing along each transect line (i.e. 5 per 50 m transect and 20 per contiguous 200 m) by divers skilled in macroalgal identification.  The canopy layer, mid-story and substrate are sequentially assessed in each single, 50 -point quadrat.

Biodiversity Values Map

The Biodiversity Values Map (BV Map) identifies land with high biodiversity value that is particularly sensitive to impacts from development and clearing. The BV Map is one of the triggers for determining whether the Biodiversity Offset Scheme (BOS) applies to a clearing or development proposal. 

The BV Map has been prepared by the Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) under Part 7 of the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016 (BC Act).  A range of mapping layers are included in the BV map. These mapping layers have been developed and are maintained by a range of agencies and councils. The inclusion of these layers on the BV map requires the approval of the Environment Agency Head or delegate. 

The BV Map shows areas that have been added in the last 90 days as the BOS does not apply to development proposals lodged within this time period. Areas that no longer meet one of the criteria for being included on the BV map will also be removed in map updates. 

It is planned to update the BV Map quarterly, however users of the BV Map are strongly encouraged to visit the BMAT website and BMAT Tool viewer regularly to be up to date with the latest version and other related information. The spatial data for this version is available from the Web Service (see link below). 

The latest version of the BV map can be viewed in the Biodiversity Values Map and Threshold (BMAT) Tool (see URL link below). 

More information on the BV map is available at - https://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/topics/animals-and-plants/biodiversity-offsets-scheme/clear-and-develop-land/biodiversity-values-map-and-threshold-tool
