NSW Biodiversity Indicator Program habitat condition dashboard

This is the dashboard for the habitat condition indicator family of the NSW Biodiversity Indicator Program. This dashboard presents data for the indicators ecological condition of terrestrial habitat and ecological carrying capacity of terrestrial habitat.

Habitat condition indicator family

The habitat condition indicator family is an overall measure of the capacity of habitats to support the original complement of native species and ecosystems. The ecological condition of terrestrial habitat indicator estimates the quality of terrestrial habitat at each location based on its intactness and naturalness. The ecological carrying capacity of terrestrial habitat indicator considers ecological condition at each location, as well as how surrounding habitat loss and fragmentation affect the ability of ecosystems to function and species to forage, disperse or migrate.

NSW Biodiversity Indicator Program

The NSW Biodiversity Indicator Program reports on the state and trends over time of biodiversity and ecological integrity in New South Wales. The program was established by the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016. We have developed a framework of indicators to help scientists, managers and policy-makers understand the current state of biodiversity, how it has changed from the past, and how it is likely to change in the future.
