| Objective | This project aimed to develop, and trial, indices of condition that assess how the Millewa forest waterbird surveys can be used to track progress towards the TLM ecological objectives for waterbird and wetland health. This report continues refinement recommendations for the Barmah-Millewa Forest (BMF) Icon Site (IS) waterbird condition (CM) monitoring project. This refinement produced a set of indices developed to address the TLM program objectives given the sampling, and their utility. Methods for generating a whole of icon site assessment was also reviewed. The data used, and the results presented here are indicative of wetlands within Millewa forest only. |
