Description
The project objectives were as follows: · to inventory and map plains rough fescue grassland remnants within the Central Parkland Natural Subregion; · to document the condition of each plains rough fescue grassland remnant using field-checks; · to characterise each plains rough fescue grassland remnant according to the preliminary classification, noting those that do not fit into the preliminary classification; · to provide digital coverages to be used in the development of a comprehensive inventory of native vegetation in the Central Parkland Natural Subregion. Essentially, this inventory provides resource managers with hierarchical data with respect to: · the extent and distribution of native vegetation in the Central Parkland, · the extent and distribution of native grasslands, and · the extent and distribution of rough fescue grasslands. This baseline data contributes to our understanding of the temporal dynamics of native grasslands in the Central Parkland and provides support...
