Gunbower Forest monitoring reports

This report presents the results of the annual fish survey that is used to report on progress towards ecological objectives for native fish at Gunbower Island and Gunbower Forest.

This report presents the annual survey results and an assessment of the condition of wetland and understorey plants, river red gums and box trees across Gunbower Forest.

This report compares the adjacent wetlands of Reedy Lagoon and Black Swamp in Gunbower Forest and investigates differences in water quality following the delivery of water for the environment.

This report presents the results of the annual fish survey that is used to report on progress towards ecological objectives for native fish at Gunbower Island and Gunbower Forest.

This report reviews five years of groundwater, salinity and rainfall data to assess trends and the influence of water for environment delivery on groundwater and salinity in Gunbower Forest.

This report presents the results of productivity, plants and animal surveys at three wetlands in Gunbower Forest following the delivery of water for the environment.

This report studies the movement patterns of carp between the River Murray and Gunbower Forest floodplain, and residual numbers of carps once wetlands are disconnected.

This report presents the results of the 2018 woodland bird surveys in Gunbower and Koondrook-Perricoota Forests.

This study looks at the response of Murray cod spawning and recruitment to water for the environment delivery in Gunbower Creek in Spring 2018.

This report presents results from the 2018 Gunbower fish survey. It includes an assessment against ecological objectives for native fish and compares these with previous year’s results.

This project outlines a program to monitor how carbon (energy) and nutrients from Gunbower Forest influences productivity in Gunbower Creek with an emphasis on maintaining and improving native fish populations.

This report presents the condition of River Red Gum and Black Box stands in Gunbower Forest. Data from previous years is used to assess change in stand condition attributes over time.

This study reports upon progress toward achievement of ecological objectives set for native fish at Gunbower Island and Gunbower Forest and compares 2017 results to those of previous years.

This report investigates the impact of carp and waterbirds on aquatic plant condition in spring 2015 and summer 2016. Exclusion zones were constructed to determine if excluding carp and waterbirds out of plots would improve aquatic plant species richness and cover.

This report presents an assessment of vegetation health at Gunbower Forest wetlands in spring and summer 2015–16 after environmental watering.

This report presents data from a 2015 fish survey undertaken in Gunbower Forest.

The reports assess the health of river red gum and black box forest stands.

The reports assess the health of river red gum and black box forest and woodland at Gunbower Forest.

The aim of this project was to collect technical and biological information concerning migratory fish in Gunbower Creek to determine if the fishways enable upstream and downstream passage of the full range of target fish species and size classes.
