Post-Fire Vegetation Recovery At Monga National Park: Vegetative Composition, Fire Response Traits And Eucalypt Response To Fire, Madeline Surya Newbery Jan 2021

Post-Fire Vegetation Recovery At Monga National Park: Vegetative Composition, Fire Response Traits And Eucalypt Response To Fire, Madeline Surya Newbery

Science, Medicine & Health - Honours Theses

Wildfires are prevalent across Australian landscapes and their effects on plants are highly variable. Climate change has already caused an extensive fire season in 2019-20 in eastern Australia and frequency and intensity of fires is predicted to further increase into the future. These dynamic changes in the fire regime places plant species, even those with fire-adapted traits, at risk of population decline or extinction. A fundamental aspect of fire-plant relationships is understanding the plant-responses and processes that cause change when related to fire. This hinges on the species, size and age specifics of individual plants. Plants can be broadly categorised …

Late Quaternary Environmental Reconstruction Of The Lacepede Shelf, Southern Australia, Núria Lahuerta Piñeiro Jan 2021

Late Quaternary Environmental Reconstruction Of The Lacepede Shelf, Southern Australia, Núria Lahuerta Piñeiro

University of Wollongong Thesis Collection 2017+

The study of relative sea-level changes and ultimately glacio-eustatic sea-level for the Late Quaternary, is commonly addressed by analysing the ocean-land interface from continental shelves, which represent submerged former coastal plains established during periods of low sea-level. In Late Quaternary time, only during the last interglacial MIS 5e highstand (128 – 116 ka) and during the present, Holocene interglacial, has sea level been near or above present sea-level. The Lacepede Shelf is a large (30,000 km2), wide (180 km) and shallow (up to 120 m) embayment, which has been partly or entirely subaerially exposed during the Late Quaternary. …
