Abstract: | After the Pinery Fire of November 2015 there was a need to monitor the impacts on the fire on areas of remnant vegetation. Gawler Environment & Heritage Association took on the task of coordinating volunteers and landholders recording information. The main project commenced in spring 2016 and will continue for some years. Some sites will only have had a single visit. Others will have followup visits, sometimes multiple times. A range of experts have assisted with identification of lesser known species. |
