Historic Woody Vegetation Mapping of the NSW Wheat-belt VIS_ID 1610

The vegetation of the Central Division of NSW was classified and mapped (Cobar-Nyngan-Gilgandra), Nymagee-Narromine-Dubbo 1:250 000 map sheets) as part of the NSW NPWS wheat-belt mapping series. The vegetation classification was derived using traditional API and quantitative analysis of data from 428 field sites. Analyses included heirarchical classification in PATN to define floristic groups, then Fidel and ANOSIM to elucidate the characteristic species of the groups and explore the consistency of these relationships and various levels of similarity. Maps and descriptions show the floristic composition and structure, the geographic distribution of assemblages, the current extent, and shape and degree of connectivity of vegetation and changes in native woody vegetation cover over time.;\r\n;\r\nVIS_ID 1610;\r\n;\r\nANZLIC: ANZNS0208000147
