Title

Land management within capability monitoring MER 2008: final result matrix

Abstract

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

Purpose

To provide a simplified record of key LMwC results on a catchment and state-wide basis. It formed the basis of results presented in the NSW State of Environment Report 2012 and 2016 (following conversion to LLS boundaries). It should help to guide state and regional level land management decisions and possible funding allocations.

Explanation

Only 650 of the total 850 MER sites have land management data. The initial proposal for the program was to establish 1240 sites (100 in each of the 12 regional CMAs and 40 in the Sydney Metro CMA). Ten sites in each of the ten SMUs per CMA was proposed but this is not complete, particularly in terms of gaining land management data. This led to the reliance on expert knowledge results to gain complete coverage. Even with complete coverage with site data as proposed, the sample size is relatively small to adequately represent each SMU, CMA and the whole state.

Explanation

The location and boundaries of individual SMUs are based on NSW soil lnadscape mapping and recorded on a digital map (~1: 500 000 scale) as desccribed in a MER Soil Condition dataset

DQ Non Quantitative Attribute Correctness

Effective date

1900-01-01

Explanation

. The sample size is relatively small to adequately represent each SMU, CMA and the whole state. With the low sample numbers, reliance on expert knowledge for many SMUs and potential weaknesses in the evaluation process, the confidence level of results generally varies from low to moderate. A final review process by local experts from DECCW and CMAs provided a broad level of quality assurance
