Avon Baselining Project - wetlands component

This dataset is for data underlying development of the wetland conservation significance methodology component of the Avon Baselining Project which ran from 2006 to 2009 and which was funded by the Avon Catchment Council (sites ABP001 to ABP150). The project also used data from the Drainage Evaluation Project (also known as the Wheatbelt Wetlands Project) which was funded by the Department of Agriculture and managed by the Wetlands Section (Species and Communities Program, DBCA) (sites ABP151-ABP180). The wetland mapping, classification and evaluations resulting from this methodology is available on the Corporate GIS dataset.

The biological and chemical data that form part of this dataset will be made available within NatureMap, but original data sheets are provided here.

Major products of the project were:

  1. A method for producing a stage 1 assessment of conservation value of Wheatbelt basin and granite outcrop wetlands.
  2. A stage 1 assessment of the conservation value of Wheatbelt basin and granite outcrop wetlands.
  3. A method for producing a stage 3 assessment of the conservation value of Wheatbelt wetlands.
  4. A stage 3 assessment of 30 Wheatbelt wetlands.
  5. A mapping layer of Wheatbelt basin and granite outcrop wetlands.
  6. A guide to Wheatbelt aquatic invertebrates and waterbirds.

The Avon Baselining project was run by Susan Jones and Lien Sim who supervised the methodology development and evaluations. The Drainage Evaluation Project was run by John Lizamore who supervised the wetland mapping component for both projects.
