Booroolong Nature Reserve Vegetation 2014 VIS_ID 4718

Booroolong Nature Reserve vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2014 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Booroolong Nature Reserve lies approximately 30 km by road north west of Armidale within the Northern Tablelands Botanical District and New England Tablelands Bioregion. The reserve contains approximately 967 ha of lands and was originally dedicated in 1999. Previously the reserve was a State Forest.\r\n\r\nThe vegetation of Booroolong Nature Reserve is described and mapped (scale 1:10000) based on ADS40 Imagery (2012). Nine floristic communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association). These nine communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. In addition ten Plant Community Types (VIS PCT) are also mapped along with four Threatened Ecological Communities (TECs).\r\n\r\nVIS_ID 4718
