Vegetation community mapping for Warrabah National Park and the Stone Hut Addition by John T Hunter, 2012. A Northern Tablelands NPWS Region contract. Mapped at 1:50,000 scale. VIS_ID 4376

The Warialda CCA Zone 1 National Park and CCA Zone 3 State Conservation Area vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2012 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. The Warialda NP and State Conservation Area are located south of the township of Warialda. This vegetation map is in addition to the Stonehedge section which was mapped in 2009. The vegetation of Warialda North (SCA) and South (NP) is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000) based on SPOT imagery. Nine communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association).

Vegetation association mapping undertaken as part of a resource and fire behaviour assessment for Pilliga Nature Reserve and Warrumbungle National Park in 1990. Existing datasets were collated and field survey undertaken to inform air photo interpretation of vegetation patterns. 36 field survey sites were sampled in the Pilliga. Number of sites sampled in the Warrumbungles is not recorded. Specifications of aerial photography is not provided, however 1:50,000 air photos were flown over the Pilliga and part of Warrumbungles in 1989, and 1:50,000 photos captured in 1982 exist for the remainder of Warrumbungle NP. The purpose of the project was to provide an overall picture of the vegetation types and to sample fuel loadings stratified by vegetation type/physiology/aspect for incorporation into the NPWS FIREMAPS (Fire Mapping and Prediction System) and ERMS databases.

Vegetation community mapping for a small parcel of land abutting Goonook Nature Reserve by Paul McDonald, 2002. Traditional API methodology was used to complete this job across five reserves for the Manning Area, Mid North Coast NPWS Region:; 1.Brimbin Nature Reserve and adjoining freehold lands.; 2.Coxcomb NR and Anderson VCA.; 3.Khatambuhl NR; 4.Two sections of Killabakh NR ; 5.Freehold purchase area on northwest corner of Goonook NR, around Mount Goonook.; The project consisted of fieldwork where possible and then interpretation of the photos to define the species types present. Some follow up fieldwork was undertaken.; Rather than assign a species type label to each polygon on the area, the polygon was given a number from 1 to n, for each area. A table for the area has a description of each polygon. VIS_ID 314

Boonoo Boonoo National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 1999 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region along with Bald Rock National Park. The mapping was revised in 2006. Boonoo Boonoo National Park is located approximately 30 km north east of Tenterfield. The vegetation of Boonoo Boonoo National Parks is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). This forms part one of the survey of lands within these two reserves with part two of the survey incorporating newly acquired lands. Ten communities are defined based on PATN analysis and one specialised community is as circumscribed by previous surveys. These eleven communities are mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and altitude. Most communities are of a Tall Open Forest structure, however Woodlands exist along with Heaths, Sedgelands, Shrublands and Closed Forest. The distribution of communities is related to drainage, aspect, slope and soil depth. VIS_ID 4716

Barayamal National Park vegetation mapping was undertaken by Dr John T. Hunter in 2008 by contract for the NPWS Northern Tableland Region. Barayamal National Park incorporates approximately 178 ha and lies within the eastern outskirts of Inverell on the North Western Slopes Botanical District and the New England Bioregion. The vegetation of Barayamal National Park is described and mapped (scale 1:25 000). Five communities are defined based on classification (Kulczynski association). These six communities were mapped based on ground truthing, air photo interpretation and landform. Much of the reserve is characterised by Lespedeza juncea was the most ubiquitous species within the reserve. Overall the character of the vegetation within the reserve can be described as being dominated by herbs and grasses and in particular Lespedeza juncea, Themeda triandra, Dichanthium sericeum, Swainsona galegifolia, Sorghum leiocladum and Bothriochloa macra. All communities described are of conservation significance. VIS_ID 4708

The vegetation of Gundabooka National Park in North Western NSW was assessed using intensive quadrat sampling and mapped using extensive ground truthing and interpretation of aerial photograph and Landsat Thematic Mapper satellite images in 2015. Two hundred and seventy six species of vascular plants were recorded from this survey from 62 families. Species recorded from previous studies but not noted in the present study have been added to give a total of 298 vascular plant species for the Park including 31 (10%) introduced species. Twenty one vegetation communities were identified and mapped, the most widespread being Eucalyptus populnea / Acacia aneura / Acacia excelsa open woodland and Acacia aneura tall shrubland.
