Private Land Conservation Synthesised Datasets

__Synthesised mapped outputs on Private Land Conservation in New South Wales__\r\n\r\nThis data package contains outputs and quantitative indicators that are relevant to the planning of private land conservation covenants in New South Wales and the protection of biodiversity in New South Wales, including the koala (_Phascolarctos cinereus_).\r\n\r\n__Shapefiles at the ABS Statistical Area 1 unit aggregation level contains:__\r\n\r\n* Predicted woody vegetation clearing risk and koala habitat clearing risk from agriculture, forestry, and infrastructure purposes\r\n\r\n* Predicted landholder preferences: probability of willing to adopt a covenant, financial compensation required for a covenant, and proportion of the property willing to put on a covenant\r\n\r\n* Simulated size of current and future investment: from a computational simulation study, the amount of investment directed to protecting koala habitat in a current and future timestep\r\n\r\n__Shapefiles at the Local Government Area aggregation level contains:__\r\n\r\n* Simulated tender priorities: from a computational simulation study, whether or not a Local Government Area was selected under different tender prioritization strategies\r\n\r\n* Landholder's survey responses: from a social survey of landholders, the proportion of respondents in each Local Government Area that agree to a series of statements about their awareness of private land conservation, intention to apply for covenants, and perceptions over extreme weather risk and climate change\r\n\r\n__State Forest Predictions: predictions of "leakage" effects of state forest revocations (point data)__\r\n\r\n* Total Treatment Effect (TTE): net change in clearing in area (ha)\r\n\r\n* Leakage: net change in clearing per unit of change in clearing within the revoked state forest\r\n\r\n* Total Treatment Effect per ha (TTEph): net change in clearing in area per hectare of revoked state forest\r\n\r\nProduced under the "Private Land Conservation in a Dynamically Changing and Risky World" funded by the Australian Research Council Linkage Projects [LP200100060], and funding from the New South Wales (NSW) Koala Strategy with financial and in-kind support from the NSW Department of Planning and Environment, the Biodiversity Conservation Trust and Tweed Shire Council.
