Abstract

Vegetation community mapping for the Clybucca group of reserves (Clybucca Aboriginal Area, Clybucca Historical Site, Fishermans Bend Nature Reserve and Yarrahapinni Wetlands National Park, 2023). A North Coast NPWS Branch contract by Scout Ecology consultancy. The mapping identifies Plant Community Types (PCTs) as well as delineating Threatened Ecological Communities (TECs).

The study area is located on the floodplain of the Macleay River approximately 25 kilometres north-east of Kempsey on the Mid North Coast of NSW and covers more than 3,000 hectares of native vegetation. The study area contains ecologically important estuarine habitats and Threatened Ecological Communities and is also highly significant from a cultural perspective, containing the Clybucca-Stuarts Point Aboriginal midden complex. This project reviewed existing data and mapping and sought to align vegetation communities with the revised Eastern NSW Plant Community Type classification through the strategic collection of data on floristic and structural diversity. A review of background information including Aboriginal History, climate, topography, soils and geography and fire history and fire ecology was also undertaken. Methods applied include both spatial mapping and collection of floristic data. Spatial mapping including digitising of linework using high-resolution aerial photography in a stereo (3D) environment. Digitising of linework and attribution of vegetation communities was supported by a range of spatial datasets including Digital Elevation and Surface Models as well as field-validated data.

The Vegetation Report is supplied with the spatial data for external use. Internally the report is located at P:\Corporate\Products\Vegetation\VegReserves\Clybucca. The report itself is titled Clybucca Vegetation Mapping.

Lineage

Collection of floristic data was undertaken following the development of preliminary vegetation linework and attribution. A sampling strategy was developed at a landscape scale based on key stratification units, with target floristic plots allocated based on the total area mapped within each stratification unit. Field surveys were undertaken by four staff from Scout over a one-week period in April 2023. Collection of data from 47 floristic plots followed the methods of the NSW Biodiversity Assessment Method. Floristic plot data was supported with by additional Rapid Data Points which aimed to provide additional confidence to vegetation mapping at discreet locations. A drone was flown to capture more than 300 photos across the study area to enhance the accuracy of the vegetation mapping.
