This dataset contains species distribution, abundance and identity data of benthic invertebrates from the Pittwater region, NSW. Epifauna samples were obtained every 3 months from mangroves and saltmarshes between June 1991 and March 1991. Taxa identified consisted of 9 species of molluscs, all of which were gastropods. The data were taken as a control site for similiar sampling in Jervis Bay. The data are part of the Jervis Bay Marine Ecological Study. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.
This dataset contains data on species distributions, productivity, reproduction and growth of mangroves and saltmarshes from Jervis Bay, NSW. The data were obtained from a variety of surveys and measurement techniques between October 1988 and July 1991. Taxa identified comprised of about 130 vascular flora species, 15 of which are exotic. Species numbers range from 2 species in the mangroves to more than 80 in the fringe forest. Population structures of the 5 dominant species - Avicennia marina, Aegiceras corniculatum, Casuarina glauca, Sclerostegia arbuscula and Gahnia filum vary spatially. Temporal change in populations of Avicennia has occurred over time intervals of 20 years, the other species appear to have remained stable over the past 50 years. 13 maps on the mangrove and saltmarsh complexes have been prepared at a scale of 1:4000. The Jervis Bay mangroves and saltmarshes were compared with other locations around Batemans Bay and Port Hacking. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.
This dataset contains data on species distributions, productivity, reproduction and growth of mangroves and saltmarshes from Port Hacking, Botany Bay, NSW. The data were obtained from a variety of surveys and measurement techniques from two creeks between 1989 and 1991. The data were taken as a control site for similiar sampling in Jervis Bay. The data are part of the Jervis Bay Marine Ecological Study. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.
This dataset contains seagrass productivity and distribution data from Wagonga Inlet, adjacent to Narooma, NSW. The data were obtained between April and October 1991. The data were taken as a control site for similiar sampling in Jervis Bay. The data are part of the Jervis Bay Marine Ecological Study. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.
This dataset contains nutrient, temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a, suspended solids and light data from Jervis Bay, NSW. The data were obtained from 9 sites around Jervis Bay, every 3 months between 1989 and 1991. Data from monthly sampling for 2 years from 5 sites were also obtained. The data are part of the Jervis Bay Marine Ecological Study. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.
This dataset contains species distribution, abundance and identity data of benthic invertebrates from Botany Bay, NSW. Epifauna samples were obtained every 3 months from mangroves and saltmarshes between June 1990 and March 1991. Taxa identified consisted of 9 species of molluscs, all of which were gastropods. The data were taken as a control site for similiar sampling in Jervis Bay. The data are part of the Jervis Bay Marine Ecological Study. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.

This dataset contains species distribution, abundance and identity data of benthic invertebrates from Jervis Bay, NSW. Epifauna samples were obtained every 3 months for 3 years from 4 sites in mangroves and saltmarshes around Jervis Bay, between October 1988 and July 1991. Taxa identified comprised 28 species (20 molluscs, 7 crabs and 1 barnacle). Tatea spp. and Assiminea buccinoides were the most common gastropods around Jervis Bay. The data are part of the Jervis Bay Marine Ecological Study. NB - As the database has been lost, the only data still available are those published in the JERVIS BAY BASELINE STUDIES Final Report.

This series of 13 maps detail the marine and estuarine and habitats of Jervis Bay. The Marine Environment Research Program (CSIRO Division of Fisheries) produced this series with funding from the Department of Defence. They are based on aerial photographs and on ground-truth data collected between 1985 and 1991. Unmapped habitats and inaccurate boundaries are described briefly on each map. The maps were originally published in the Final Report, May 1994, Jervis Bay Baseline Studies, volume 3. The map titles are: Map 1 - Bowen Island to Scottish Rocks Map 2 - Bristol Point to HMAS Creswell Map 3 - Seamans Beach to Hyams Beach Map 4 - Plantation Point Map 5 - look of the - Moona Moona Creek Map 6 - Currambene Creek to Callala Beach Map 7 - Currambene Creek - Upper Map 8 - Callala Beach to Callala Point Map 9 - Callala Bay to Red Point Map 10 - Cararma Creek Map 11 - Red Point to Cararma Inlet Map 12 - Green Island to Long Beach Map 13 - Bindijine Beach to Dart Point The final original digital files have been lost. The PDF files available for download here were created from a set of Encapsulated Post Script files recovered from old Jervis Bay Baseline Studies working group data backups. These were then edited to include text detailing the unmapped habitats and inaccurate boundary information taken from the printed maps in the Final Report. Apart from some minor layout variations, these files are an accurate representation of the final published maps.
