Description: This dataset is part of the assessment and mapping of foreshore values, condition and pressure in the North and Cradle Coast Natural Resource Management (NRM) Regions of Tasmania. The 13 line maps produced in this study are intended to be used as a tool to assist managers and stakeholders in the identification of management issues with regards to foreshore planning, development, and natural resources. Assessment of the foreshore is based on the division of the mean high water mark into 100 m line segments. Using an assessment framework, each foreshore segment is assigned a score for a series of environmental stressors and values. Segments are colour coded based on their score to reflect their values and the differing levels of risk associated with each stressor. This digital line map is a representation of the risk to the intertidal zone in regard to aquatic sediments in the North and Cradle Coast NRM regions and is derived from an assessment of pressure and vulnerability. An explanatory report is available from the data custodian and from the Aquenal website which provides detailed methods and further explanation of the dataset.

Description: Surveys were conducted as part of an assessment of the Macrocystis pyrifera (Linnaeus) C. Agardh 1820 beds on the east coast of Tasmania by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industry Research Organization (CSIRO) Division of Fisheries seaweed program in the early 1950's. Surveys were conducted because of interest in the Macrocystis beds as a source of alginates. Surveys were done between 1950 and mid 1953. The paper was published in 1954.
Description: A research program jointly conducted by Alginates (Australia) P/L and C. S. I. R. O. Division of Fisheries and Oceanography was set up to investigate the relationship between kelp: Macrocystis pyrifera (Linnaeus) C. Agardh 1820 and crayfish larvae. Alginates (Australia) P/L, based at Louisville in the Mercury Passage, were harvesting kelp at this time. This study was initiated to address concerns regarding the effect of harvesting on crayfish stocks. The survey results are taken from an unpublished interim report presenting the results of the work at that stage (1965). Apparently an aerial survey was used to determine stock distributions although this is not specified in the report.
Description: A survey of the east Tasmanian coastline from Musselroe Bay to South East Cape revealed a total of 10 km2 of Macrocystis pyrifera (Linnaeus) C. Agardh 1820 kelp forest. Average harvestable quantities based on Alginates (Australia) Company records (1965-72) show that cropping can expect to yield 5 ton/acre or 1.23 kg/m2. This realizes a total of 12,300 tonne available on the East Coast of Tasmania in 1986. Review of past records show fluctuations in total amounts harvested, due possibly to factors such as high oceanic water temperatures with subsequent low nutrient concentrations and storm damage. The survey was conducted from a light aeroplane. Areas of Macrocystis pyrifera beds were marked on 1:100,000 topographical land tenure maps using landmarks as references. Digitising of bed outlines on maps was done using Mapinfo. Weight of Macrocystis per unit area is also estimated from quadrats harvested at a number of sites along the coast.
Description: The results of this survey are based primarily on the first hand experience of Craig Sanderson who was doing his masters thesis at the time on aspects of the biology of Macrocystis pyrifera (Linnaeus) C. Agardh 1820. In need of significant beds of M. pyrifera for research much of the east coast was searched by boat. Significant stands (>1/2 acre) were found at Darlington, Southerly Bottom (East North Bay), Fortesque Bay and George III Rock, (near Actaeon Island). The status of the few areas not visited was determined from anecdotal reports.
Description: A survey was conducted for Macrocystis pyrifera (Linnaeus) C. Agardh 1820 from Eddystone Point to South East CapeThe survey was conducted from light aeroplane. Areas of Macrocystis pyrifera beds were marked on 1:100,000 topographical land tenure maps using landmarks as references. A Trimble GPS unit was used to track position in the aeroplane. As boundaries of the beds were flown over, these were marked on the GPS. When plotted up, these information assisted in determining Macrocystis bed boundaries where these were not close to the coast.
Description: The five species of seagrass occuring around the coast of Tasmania were located on a presence-absence basis. Sampling included the recording of species, depth, density, substratum and presence of algal epiphytes. Available aerial photography from three time periods (circa 1950, circa 1970 and circa 1990) was used to digitally map selected beds into a GIS using ARC/INFO. Sample site attributes were added to the database and patterns of change and distribution were analysed and mapped. An area of approx. 220 square kilometres was mapped leading to an estimate of between 400 and 500 square kilometres of seagrass occurring in Tasmania. Decline has occurred, particularly close to areas of human population and activity. The report proposes mechanisms for the management and protection of Tasmania's seagrass communities, and nominates representative areas for possible reserve status.

Description: This data set spatially depicts wetlands susceptible to marine oiling necessary for any response to an oil spill in Tasmanian State coastal waters as specified by the Oil Spill Response Atlas project. The need for identifying coastal wetland areas that are subject to marine influence is important in the management and their protection and for the protection of the vulnerable and endemic species that utilise them. This data set contains the point locations of the centre of both actual and probable coastal wetland areas within Tasmania that are susceptible to a marine oil spills. Coastal wet areas such as wetlands, saline flats, estuaries, watercourses and waterbodies that are below 10 metres above Mean High Water Mark (MHWM) and are either connected to, or within 250 metres of, the MHWM were all identified as having the potential for oil damage if a spill was to occur nearby. Any wetlands with international, national and state significance have been attributed as such. For example, where known, the points are attributed with the conservation significance of the wetlands including RAMSAR sites and areas frequented by Japanese Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (JAMBA) and China Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (CAMBA) bird species. The base data is currently held in AGD66 geographicals (ie Latitude Longitude).

Description: This data set spatially depicts biological resources necessary for the response to an oil spill in Tasmanian State coastal waters as specified by the Oil Spill Response Atlas project. The need for identifying and recording the sighting of cetacean's is imperative for the management and protection of species in the event of an oil spill. This data set contains point locations of whale and dolphin sightings in the waters surrounding Tasmania, King Island, Flinders Island and small off shore islands around the state. Polygon data (reflectign density on 20km grid squares) was also recently added. Data have been collected from whale sightings from 1928 to the present dat (2004). The spread of data recorded is extensive along populated areas of coastline and coastal waters. It is also important to note that identification of species is difficult also when the data is sourced from people who do not have a professional base in the area and species are misidentified. The base data is currently held in AGD66 geographicals (ie Latitude Longitude).
Description: This data set spatially depicts biological resources necessary for the response to an oil spill in Tasmanian State coastal waters as specified by the Oil Spill Response Atlas project.
