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.

Wabma Kadarbu CP was first Gazetted to include the Bubbler Group in July of 1996. The Park was expanded in October 2001 to include a further 9 spring groups. As part of this inventory it was identified that the various datasets have gathered different information and have used a range of conventions. So the objective of the current trip is to bring the datasets to a minimum standard within the Wabma Kadarbu CP by gathering the following information: 1. Location and altitude information for each spring vent accurate to the nearest centimetre. 2. Standard physical description of spring units following Biological Survey methodologies. 3. Standardised labelling of springs vents. 4. Sampling of macro-invertebrate diversity. 5. Sampling of wetland dependant vegetation The inventory was originally planned to include the Strangways spring group, but due to a larger than expected number of flowing springs within Wabma Kadarbu CP (WMC recorded 70 springs in the Wabma Kadarbu CP, whereas the May 2004 Inventory located 358 springs) it was decided to not include the Strangways group.

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. The Kulcurna Crown Reserve - NSW 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.

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.

This project was set up to obtain vegetation species and abundance information for utilisation in developing new remote sensing techniques for vegetation mapping (PhD Project). The Strzelecki (B.

Shirrocoe management plan survey contains flora data from Biological survey sites which were completed in May 2008. The survey also collected baseline data on fauna species present. Extra effort was put into searching Sandhill Dunnart habitat for signs of presence. Permanent photopoints were erected at fauna sites. A few vegetation sites are not marked.

In 1986 a one year program to investigate the biota of Coongie Lakes was initiated. The aims were to: identify and document the seasonal changes to the flora and fauna of the Coongie Lakes District, to assess the impacts of human activities and other agencies upon the biota and to make recomendations for the areas effective conservation management. The report by Reid & Gillen 1988 summarises the findings. The biological research of Coongie Lakes continued until 1997 as more funding was received. In 1990 a project to assess the impact of flooding on the districts terrestrial biota was also conducted. Photopoint Site Sheets and a 31/2 inch floppy disc are field with the BioDataStore hardcopy files containing details of photopoint seqences from 1986-1988. It is unknown if these photos or information has been captured electronically. REFERENCE: Reid, J., Gillen, J.S.,1988,The Coongie Lakes Study,Department of Environment and Planning.
