Offshore Islands Survey
收藏资源简介：
This survey is part of the Biological Survey of SA programme run by the Biological Survey & Monitoring group in DEH. Survey areas defined in a DEH spatial layer managed by DEH Environmental Information Group. The survey sampled, described and mapped the vegetation and recorded the associated fauna from as many as possible of South Australia's offshore islands. All offshore islands from Nuyts Reef in the west to Penguin Island in the South East of South Australia were visited between 1971 and 1982. Several groups of islands are not covered including the islands in Pelican Lagoon on Kangaroo Island, Kangaroo Island itself and the islands in the Coorong Lagoon. Torrens and Garden Islands, the mangroves and saltmarsh covered islands north of Port Adelaide and Entrance Island in Franklin Harbour are excluded, as they are better treated as part of the mangrove complex along the St Vincent Gulf and Spencer Gulf coasts.

Visit period 1966- 2000 Visit period FEB 2002 The Offshore Islands 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.
本调查是由DEH下属生物调查与监测组实施的南澳州生物调查计划的组成部分。调查区域由DEH环境信息组管理的DEH空间图层划定。本次调查对尽可能多的南澳州近海岛屿开展了植被采样、描述与制图，并记录了伴生动物类群。1971年至1982年间，调查覆盖了西起努茨礁（Nuyts Reef）、东至南澳州东南部企鹅岛（Penguin Island）的全部近海岛屿。但部分岛群未被纳入调查范围，包括袋鼠岛（Kangaroo Island）上鹈鹕湖（Pelican Lagoon）周边的岛屿、袋鼠岛主岛本身，以及库龙潟湖（Coorong Lagoon）内的岛屿。托伦斯岛（Torrens Island）、加登岛（Garden Island）、阿德莱德港（Port Adelaide）北部覆盖红树林与盐沼的岛屿，以及富兰克林港（Franklin Harbour）的入口岛（Entrance Island）均被排除，原因是这些区域更适合被归入圣文森特湾（St Vincent Gulf）与斯宾塞湾（Spencer Gulf）沿岸的红树林复合体范畴。 参考文献： Robinson, A.C.、Canty, P.D.、Mooney, T. 及 Rudduck, P.（1996）《南澳州近海岛屿》，澳大利亚遗产委员会（Australian Heritage Commission） 本调查的野外工作时段涵盖1966年至2000年，以及2002年2月。南澳近海岛屿调查隶属于南澳州生物调查计划，该计划自1971年起在全州范围内开展系统性调查，核心目标是建立南澳州动植物生物多样性的基线名录，相关工作迄今仍在持续。
