Friends of Great Victoria Desert (GVD) Area Ecological Monitoring Program Survey, Biological Survey of South Australia - Vegetation Survey, Biological Database of South Australia

Friends of Unnamed Conservation Park (West region South Australia) Ecological Monitoring Program. Broadly, the aim of the monitoring is to initially provide some baseline data on the presence / absence of introduced and native fauna, and on the composition, structure and condition of vegetation at monitoring sites. This will provide a good basis for recording long term ecological trends, which in turn will provide information on the process driving ecological patterns and changes within the park. I understand that Biological Survey have established / are establishing survey sites across the park. The long-term monitoring program will complement this and improtantly provide long-term data for the region (sites will be monitored at least once per year). It is likely sites will primarily be established along the Anne Beadell Highway west of Volkes Hill Corner. It is envisioned the following will be conducted: - Site Description / Photopoint establishment (as per BSM standard) - 2ha Animal Track survey (as per method developed by Michelle Watson and Rick Southgate and previously employed by Friends of Simpson Desert_ - Bird survey (as per BSM standard, over 2ha area) - Vegetation quadrat data (as per BSm standard) - Vegetation monitoring (Jessup transects and Ground cover assessment) - Marsupial Mole Trench Surveys First Survey conducted in July 2006. DEWNR has trip data for 2008/2011/2012/2013. The Friends of Great Victoria Desert (GVD) Area Ecological Monitoring Program Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.

南澳大利亚州西部地区无名保护区之友生态监测计划
本监测计划的总体目标为：首先针对监测样地内外来入侵与本土动物区系的存在/缺失情况，以及植被的组成、结构与健康状况，提供基准基础数据。此举可为长期生态趋势的记录提供坚实支撑，进而为解析保护区内生态格局与变化的驱动过程提供有效信息。
据悉，南澳大利亚州生物调查部门已在保护区全域布设调查样地，或正在推进相关布设工作。本长期监测计划将作为该项工作的补充，尤为重要的是，将为该区域提供长期监测数据（样地每年至少开展一次监测）。
样地初步拟定主要布设至沃克斯山角以西的安妮比德尔公路沿线区域。
计划开展以下监测工作：
- 样地描述与摄影点位布设（遵循BSM标准）
- 2公顷动物足迹调查（采用米歇尔·沃森与里克·索思盖特制定的方法，此前由辛普森沙漠之友应用）
- 鸟类调查（遵循BSM标准，调查范围为2公顷区域）
- 植被样方数据采集（遵循BSM标准）
- 植被监测（杰瑟普样线法与地表覆盖评估）
- 袋鼹（Marsupial Mole）坑道调查
首次调查于2006年7月开展。南澳大利亚州环境、水与自然资源部（DEWNR）持有2008、2011、2012及2013年的野外调查行程数据。
大维多利亚沙漠（GVD）区域之友生态监测计划调查是南澳大利亚州生物调查计划的组成部分。该计划自1971年起至今在全州范围内开展一系列系统性调查，总体目标为建立南澳大利亚州动植物生物多样性的基准名录。
