Burnt Down Scrub Nature Reserve Vegetation 1999 VIS_ID 4720

Burnt Down Scrub Nature Reserve vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 1999 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. The reserve is 8 km NNW of the junction of the Mann and Clarence Rivers, 15 km\r\nSW of Baryugil and is separated by 4 km of cleared land from the Redbank Creek\r\narea of Washpool National Park. The reserve is included under Portions 94 and 99 of the Parish of Carnham and the County of Drake. \r\n\r\nThe vegetation of Burnt Down Scrub Nature Reserve is described and mapped (scale1:25 000). Five communities are defined based on PATN analysis. Five communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Most communities are of Open Forest and Closed Forest structure. The distribution of communities is related to past disturbances, particularly fire but also drainage and protection from the west. Many of the communities show considerable variation and intergrade along common boundaries. All communities are considered adequately represented in the current reserve network.\r\n\r\nVIS_ID 47201999年，约翰·T·亨特博士受国家公园与野生动物服务局（National Parks and Wildlife Service, NPWS）北部台地区域委托，完成了烧毁灌丛自然保护区（Burnt Down Scrub Nature Reserve）的植被测绘工作。该保护区位于曼恩河与克拉伦斯河汇流处西北偏北8公里处，距离巴里乌吉尔西南15公里，与沃斯波尔国家公园（Washpool National Park）的红岸溪片区相隔4公里的开垦用地。该保护区隶属于卡恩哈姆堂区（Parish of Carnham）与德雷克郡（County of Drake）的第94、99地块。 烧毁灌丛自然保护区的植被已完成描述与制图工作，制图比例尺为1:25000。研究基于PATN分析划定了5个植被群落，并通过野外实地验证、航空影像解译与地形分析完成了5个群落的空间制图。多数群落属于开阔林（Open Forest）与密闭林（Closed Forest）结构类型。群落的空间分布与既往干扰事件密切相关，其中尤以火灾扰动最为显著，同时也受排水条件与西侧区域防护状况的影响。多数群落在共通边界处存在显著变异与过渡特征。所有群落均在当前的保护区网络中得到了充分的代表性覆盖。 VIS_ID 4720
