Nullarbor Survey, Biological Survey of South Australia - Vegetation Survey, Biological Database of South Australia

This Nullarbor survey sampled the range of vegetation associations systematically for flora and fauna using Standard Biological Survey of South Australia. In the early stages of rangeland condition monitoring in South Australia a number of photopoints were established in various places. Throughout 1956 and 1973 sites that were chosen and sampled focussed on particular plant communities or plant species. PP154 was established on Koonalda Pastoral Lease, in vegetation suited to pastoral production. Since the site was installed, the land has been declared National Park. This site is one where long term trends in vegetation change may be evaluated. Throughout 1972 and 2001 vegetation, mammals and reptiles were surveyed using Standard Biological Survey of SA methods. In 2002, Vegetation mapping of the area occurred. The Nullarbor Survey is part of the Biological Survey of South Australia Program which is a series of systematic surveys conducted across the state between 1971 and the present with the broad aim of providing a baseline inventory of South Australia's flora and fauna biodiversity.
