The ecology of Sydney, located in the state of New South Wales, Australia, is diverse for its size, [1] where it would mainly feature biomes such as grassy woodlands or savannas and some sclerophyll forests, with some pockets of mallee shrublands, riparian forests, heathlands, and wetlands, in addition to small temperate and subtropical rainforest fragments.
6- monthly NDVI average for Australia, 1 Dec 2012 to 31 May 2013 [1]. A vegetation index (VI) is a spectral imaging transformation of two or more image bands designed to enhance the contribution of vegetation properties and allow reliable spatial and temporal inter-comparisons of terrestrial photosynthetic activity and canopy structural variations.
This list of endangered ecological communities in New South Wales (or EECs in NSW) has been compiled from the indices of final determinations (made by the NSW Scientific Committee, under the TSC Act and Biodiversity Acts), and available at the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage's website.
The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is a widely-used metric for quantifying the health and density of vegetation using sensor data. It is calculated from spectrometric data at two specific bands: red and near-infrared.
The biggest remnant of natural bushland on the Liverpool Plains in north-west NSW and the most extensive and intact stand of the nationally listed critically endangered box-gum woodland remaining in Australia. It is habitat for 34 critically endangered species and several endangered ecological communities. [6] Limpinwood Nature Reserve: New ...
This is a List of national vegetation classification systems.These systems classify natural habitat type according to vegetation.. Many schemes of vegetation classification are in use by the land, resource and environmental management agencies of different national and state jurisdictions.
This project evolved into a detailed survey of the vegetation of the western region, resulting in the publication of Beadle’s map, Vegetation Map of Western New South Wales. The Soil Conservation Service published Beadle’s report in 1948. [1] [3] [4]
Average annual rainfall is 930 mm (37 in). Soils are relatively infertile, based on Triassic sedimentary rocks, the soil base consists of Bringelly shale.Average monthly annual maximum temperatures for nearby Bankstown range between 17.5 for July and 27.7 for January.
