Report No. 6 |
||||
Through
the Wet Tropics Plan, a number of roads and tracks have been closed or
have restricted access because of their potential impact on flora and
fauna. As part of a consultancy for the Wet Tropics Management Authority,
Rainforest CRC researchers monitored these impacts on native flora and
fauna and the spread of exotic weeds and other pest organisms for a number
of years.
This report details
the results of the first two years' monitoring and includes an assessment
of the impact of road/track closure/opening on the Wet Tropics, an assessment
of road/track damage through increased use and indicators of impacts
of road opening/closure for future monitoring. |
