Lofty Block Grasslands and Grassy Woodlands Survey

A 1995 to 1996 vegetation only survey to document grassland and grassy woodland remnants in the Lofty Block Bioregion. The survey strategy was to identify gaps in the existing coverage, to target these areas for field survey and combine data from various surveys in the region to classify vegetation communities using PATN.

The Lofty Block Grasslands and Grassy Woodlands 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.本数据集为1995至1996年间开展的纯植被调查，旨在记录洛夫蒂块生物区（Lofty Block Bioregion）内的草原与草本林地残存群落。本次调查策略为：识别现有植被覆盖数据的空白区域，将此类区域列为野外调查目标，并整合该区域多项调查的数据，使用PATN软件对植被群落进行分类。 参考文献：M.A.罗伯逊（M.A.Robertson）（1998）《南澳大利亚州洛夫蒂块生物区草原与草本林地生物调查》，环境、遗产与原住民事务部（Department for Environment Heritage and Aboriginal Affairs）。 本次洛夫蒂块草原与草本林地调查是南澳大利亚州生物调查计划（Biological Survey of South Australia Program）的组成部分；该计划自1971年起至今在全州范围内开展一系列系统性调查，其总体目标是为南澳大利亚州的动植物生物多样性建立基线名录。
