    Witjira National Park Dalhousie Mound Springs survey conducted by Scientific Expedition Group (SEG) in 2003. Expedition Witjira 2003 was a major collaboration between the SEG, DEH and NPWS. The main objective was to conduct a biodiversity survey of the area, particularly the mound springs, to observe any differences between the springs with original vegetation and those where feral date palms are invading the springs.Other objectives were to search for rare rodents, Kowari and marsupial Moles ans survey for feral animals. Report available - Expedition Witjira Interim Report: 12th-26th July, 2003 - A Biodiversity Survey of the Mound Springs and Surrounding Area (Spiral bound) Edited by Janet Furler, Edited by Richard Willing. The Dalhousie Survey (Scientific Expedition Group) 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.

    Gather information on the flora and fauna of the proposed new mining area surrounding the existing Beverley Mine Lease to allow for the compilation of a new EIS that will allow mining over an increased area. 100 x 100 m quadrat with Jessup Transect were sampled at each of the 25 photopoint sites. Fauna monitoring used 10 of the photopoint sites selected for the vegetation survey. Two traplines sampled per site. Survey conducted in 2006.

    The study area examined was within the boundaries of the Breakaway Reserve in the arid/semi arid region. The objectives of the study was to systematically sample the vegetation of the range of vegetation associations within the area by using a series of grids and to map the major vegetation associations using aerial photography. Vertebrate fauna were also surveyed at a series of sites within each major vegetation association in areas showing reasonably homogeneous vegetation and least disturbance.

    In 1999 the coastal vegetation from the Head of Bight to the southeastern Yalata boundary was surveyed so that data can be used in formulating future management plans for this stretch of coast, especially in relation to fishermens camping areas and 4WD access.

    The survey aimed to collect data on species composition and health information in representative sites on Kulkurna Crown land. Data collection is to assist in determining management recommendations for reserve and to assist in the broader objective of management of the Chowilla floodplain.

    A Biological Resources inventory and monitoring survey of the Flinders Ranges National Park - Oraparinna Section. Study was carried out for the Unit of Vertebrate Field Study Techniques for the Associate Diploma in Wildlife and Park Management (South Australian College of Advanced Education) Permanent vegetation photopoints described in the draft Management Plan were re-sampled at the request of the Nat. Parks & Wildlife Service to monitor long-term vegetation changes and to record observations of vertebrates. Regeneration of Native Pine (Callitris spp) was studied to determine factors affecting variations in seed distribution around a seed source. The results may be used as the basis for further studies in regeneration patterns of this species. Kangaroo surveys were repeated on established transects as part of regular monitoring or Kangaroos and Euros in the Oraparinna and Wilpena Pound areas. Reptile, bird and mammal trapping was carried out at the photopoints and in other areas during the study. Some of these sites have been remonitored in 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1999 & 2000 The Flinders Ranges National Park 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.

    Friends of Unnamed Conservation Park (West region South Australia) Ecological Monitoring Program. Broadly, the aim of the monitoring is to initially provide some baseline data on the presence / absence of introduced and native fauna, and on the composition, structure and condition of vegetation at monitoring sites. This will provide a good basis for recording long term ecological trends, which in turn will provide information on the process driving ecological patterns and changes within the park. I understand that Biological Survey have established / are establishing survey sites across the park. The long-term monitoring program will complement this and improtantly provide long-term data for the region (sites will be monitored at least once per year). It is likely sites will primarily be established along the Anne Beadell Highway west of Volkes Hill Corner. It is envisioned the following will be conducted: - Site Description / Photopoint establishment (as per BSM standard) - 2ha Animal Track survey (as per method developed by Michelle Watson and Rick Southgate and previously employed by Friends of Simpson Desert_ - Bird survey (as per BSM standard, over 2ha area) - Vegetation quadrat data (as per BSm standard) - Vegetation monitoring (Jessup transects and Ground cover assessment) - Marsupial Mole Trench Surveys First Survey conducted in July 2006. DEWNR has trip data for 2008/2011/2012/2013.
