Acknowledgments
This report was prepared by Gethin Morgan for the Department of the Environment and Heritage and the National Land and Water Resources Audit.
Many people were generous in their support of this project, and most helped in many ways. To all of these people I extend my thanks.
Those listed below provided particular support, including specific advice on a number of attributes either for their jurisdictions, or for particular subregions. The Commonwealth Management Committee and the State and Territories Working Group generally provided the major support and the project has depended on them for its success in collating the wide range of disparate data sets it presents. I would like to particularly like to thank Chris Derrick of the Environmental Resources Information Network in Environment Australia for his sustained support in analysing continental datasets and in producing the maps for this report.
