Habitat and management data collation and collection on callows and floodplain grasslands

The project was organised into two distinct stages. Stage A involved the collection and collation of the habitat and management data on floodplain grasslands and was primarily a GIS task. Stage A included a review of appropriate management for callows and floodplain grasslands. Stage B of the project involved the development of a field methodology to survey a subsample of the callows and floodplain grasslands selected during Stage A and the presentation of the results of these surveys through summary charts, tables and site reports.

Purpose

The project was organised into two distinct stages. Stage A involved the collection and collation of the habitat and management data on floodplain grasslands and was primarily a GIS task with all mapping undertaken using the vegetation polygons within the OSI PRIME2 shapefile. Stage A included a review of appropriate management for callows and floodplain grasslands.



Stage B of the project involved the development of a field methodology to survey 27 of the callows and floodplain grasslands selected during Stage A and the presentation of the results of these surveys through summary charts, tables and site reports. The 27 sites included three Natural Heritage Areas (NHAs); Suck River Callows NHA (code 000222), River Little Brosna Callows NHA (code 000564), and Rinn River NHA (code 000691).
