Boonoo Boonoo National Park Vegetation 1999_2006 VIS_ID 4716

Boonoo Boonoo National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 1999 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region along with Bald Rock National Park. The mapping was revised in 2006. Boonoo Boonoo National Park is located approximately 30 km north east of Tenterfield.\r\n\r\nThe vegetation of Boonoo Boonoo National Parks is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). This forms part one of the survey of lands within these two reserves with part two of the survey incorporating newly acquired lands. Ten communities are defined based on PATN analysis and one specialised community is as circumscribed by previous surveys. These eleven communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and altitude. Most communities are of a Tall Open Forest structure, however Woodlands exist along with Heaths, Sedgelands, Shrublands and Closed Forest. The distribution of communities is related to drainage, aspect, slope and soil depth. \r\n\r\nVIS_ID 4716
