Remote sensing and threatened species surveys to better understand risks of forest fragmentation from the Narrabri Gas Project
Risks of fragmentation from CSG activities for species and ecosystems in the Pilliga Forest.
Development of the Narrabri Gas Project (NGP) will increase habitat fragmentation in the Pilliga Forest, which represents the single largest area of inland plains forest in Australia. This project will provide scientific understanding needed to determine how fragmentation resulting from NGP land clearing activities will add to the existing impacts from prior land use fragmentation on biodiversity in the region.
