| Objective | A condition monitoring program was designed that is capable of testing key objectives developed for vegetation (wetland and terrestrial assemblages, river red gums, black box, lignum and cumbungi), fish and waterbird ommunities/populations within the LMW and HL Icon Sites (refer to Scholz et al. 2007a). Condition assessments focus on determining species diversity, abundance, spatial distribution, population structure {e.g. whether recruitment is occurring) and 'health' {e.g. 'greenness' for trees and lignum). This report presents the condition monitoring data collected during the 2006-07 reporting period for vegetation, fish and birds from the LMW and HL Icon Sites. This initial 'snapshot' of Icon Site biotic condition provides the basis against which future changes and the achievement of TLM targets can be assessed. |
