This study aimed to investigate whether the reduction in food supply following the Kangaroo Island 2019 – 20 Black Summer fires would result in Glossy Black Cockatoos foraging less selectively on <em>Allocasuarina verticillata</em> (drooping Sheoak) food trees within those patches, i.e. at higher foraging rates. We investigated whether foraging intensity (i.e., the proportion of foraged trees relative to total number of examined female trees) in regions on Kangaroo Island impacted by the fires differed from that in unburnt areas, and whether that had resulted in GBCs feeding on cones with lower food profitability in burnt regions. <br></br>

The dataset consists of spatial data showing locations of channel incision points (CIP) and sediment deposition in burned study sites in the Tumut and Tuross Catchment study regions.<br> This dataset includes aerial imagery captured 1-2 years after the 2019/20 bushfires of the study regions from which the locations of CIPs and sediment deposits were determined, and gridded landscape attribute information used to test the spatial association between landscape attributes and CIP density.<br> Refer to the following NRC report 'Post fire debris flow mapping - Coastal IFOA monitoring program - June 2023', which is included in the dataset, for background and further detail.
