Avon baselining project - Biodiversity Assessment

The biodiversity assessment report

The Biodiversity of the Avon NRM Region report is a collation of existing regional biodiversity data that presents:

• a suite of summary statistics on the assets, existing programs and threats, and
• is a record of review of data sets and analyses on these data sets.

The analyses were aimed at developing an understanding of the status and trend of species, communities and ecosystem assets, and threats operative on these assets;

• programs aimed to improve the status of these assets;
• identifying other biodiversity assets that are not part of existing programs and/or existing understanding;
• a preliminary analysis of gaps in knowledge and present programs.

A suite of recommendations on how and where to overcome these gaps resulted. Download the Biodiversity of the Avon NRM Region report6.59 MB for more detail and the full range of topics.
