Climate Change Corridors (Coastal Habitat) for North East NSW

Brief description

The data integrates best available information to delineate broad wildlife corridors, for fauna occupying cooastal habitat, along climatic gradients. The objective of the layer is to best delineate large-scale wildlife corridors that are significant for wildlife adaptation to the threatening processes of climate change. The work has been based on key habitats (Scotts, 2003), vegetation mapping layers, NSW Wildlife Atlas, VIS Flora records, recent aerial photography and recent outputs from the 'Spatial Links' tool (Drielsma et al, 2007) to represent areas of the landscape that contain high conservation values and fauna corridor values for a coastal assemblage of fauna.
