Ecological resources
The Hotspots ecological literature reviews provide a detailed discussion on the relationship between fire and different vegetation communities. Fire is a feature of the NSW landscape - but how much is appropriate? These reviews seek to address this question for some of the major vegetation types found in the Northern Rivers, Southern Rivers, Central West, Hunter-Central Rivers and Namoi CMA regions.
