Land management within capability monitoring MER 2008: final result matrix

This MER dataset comprises an Excel spreadsheet that presents the Land Management within Capability (LMwC) indices for each of the 8 component land & soil capability (LSC) hazards for each of the 10 soil monitoring units (SMUs) within each Catchment Management Authority (CMA) of NSW. A summary of results is also included highlighting which particular hazards are of concern in each CMA and across the state. These results are also presented and discussed in the Technical Report: OEH (2014), Soil condition and land management in NSW: final results from the 2008-09 monitoring evaluation and reporting program, http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/research-and-publications/publications-search/soil-condition-and-land-management-in-new-south-wales
