Processing Results Of Western Australian Wool, John Stanton A/Prof, Lindy Coss, Peter Metcalf

Resource management technical reports

Despite a perception by some that Western Australian wool 'processes poorly', this study found that the consignments processed:

1. into longer tops suited for worsted weaving

2. into longer than predicted tops

3. with the same consistency as other Australian consignments

Environmental Considerations For The Proposed Goldfields Gas Pipeline Route Through Wanjarri Nature Reserve, H J. Pringle

Resource management technical reports

Provides a broad description of the biophysical environment on Wanjarri Nature Reserve, discusses land management hazards, assesses and suggests an alternative alignment for the proposed Goldfields Gas Pipeline and briefly discusses environmental monitoring.From a purely environmental perspective the optimal alignment for the proposed Goldfields Gas Pipeline might be to the east of the mulga plains, in the spinifex for most of the way, and west of the sand ridge field near the track down to South Bore.

Remnant Vegetation Inventory On The Southern Agricultural Areas Of Western Australia., G R. Beeston, G Mlodowski, A Sanders, D True

Resource management technical reports

Remnant vegetation mapping and its incorporation into a Geographical Information System (GIS) data base is the first stage in an overall documentation and promotion of conservation of remnant vegetation in Western Australia. The primary objective of this project being to determine the amount, distribution and regional location of native vegetation remaining on private land in the agricultural area of south-west Western Australia.

Rangeland Reference Areas : Summary Of Cooperative Project Between The Western Australian Department Of Agriculture And The Environmental Protection Authority, D A. Blood

Resource management technical reports

The development of agriculture in south-western Australia has been characterised by the replacement of deep-rooted, perennial species of native vegetation with shallow-rooted, annual species. Except for the high rainfall areas, the native vegetation was able to intercept and transpire nearly all of the rainfall resulting in low stream flows and recharge to a groundwater system which was typically deep and restricted to the major valleys. The lack of surface or groundwater movement out of inland catchments used large quantities of cyclic salts to become stored in the regolith. Although annual crops and pastures can be high water users, they are …
