Australian vegetated coastal ecosystems as global hotspots for climate change mitigation

Oscar Serrano, +57 more
TL;DR: This assessment, the most comprehensive for any nation to-date, demonstrates the potential of conservation and restoration of VCE to underpin national policy development for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

A Methodology for the identification of significant landforms and geological sites for geoconservation purposes

C Sharples
TL;DR: In this paper, the identification of significant landforms and geological sites (earth features) within the State Forests of Tasmania with a view to facilitating the conservation of geodiversity (Geoconservation) through appropriate management prescriptions is discussed.

Geoconservation in forest management - principles and procedures

C Sharples
TL;DR: Geoconservation aims to maintain the diversity of geological, geomorphological and soil features, systems and processes as discussed by the authors, and the successful management of geodiversity requires the existence of databases indicating the types, conditions and vulnerability of the features and assemblages present.
Journal ArticleDOI

National sediment compartment framework for Australian coastal management

TL;DR: The sediment compartments approach was first used in the 1960s in the United States to define sections of the Australian coast, but had not been uniformly adopted around the nation in the way that has underpinned management, as in other countries.

Indicative Mapping of Tasmanian Coastal Vulnerability to Climate Change and Sea-Level Rise: Explanatory Report (Second Edition)

C Sharples
TL;DR: In this paper, a digital map set that was developed during 2004 - 2006 to provide an indicative (or "first pass") identification of Tasmanian coastal areas potentially vulnerable to increased storm surge flooding, shoreline erosion, rock falls, and slumping as a result of global climate change and sea-level rise is presented.
