Phase 1 - Literature Review

This report comprises a literature review for the Ecological Burn Project. It focuses on the impacts of ecological burning in Box-Ironbark or similar ecosystems.

Phase 2 - Management Strategy

The final report in the series of two. The Management Strategy promotes a precautionary approach in using fire as a management tool due to a lack of knowledge of Box-Ironbark fire ecology. It contains a decision framework to enable ecological burning on a site-by-site basis with some flexibility. Vegetation composition and fire history have been used to either rationalise or preclude a possible burn, with key fauna species playing an additional 'veto' role if necessary.
