IBA Conservation

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2007. The most recent assessment (2011) is shown below.

IBA conservation assessment
Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2011 unfavourable very high low
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
no habitat -

State (condition of the trigger species' habitats)
Habitat Quantity (% remaining) Quality (% carrying capacity) Result
Forest good (> 90%) poor (40-69%) unfavourable

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Biological resource use happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) very rapid to severe deterioration very high
Invasive and other problematic species and genes happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) very rapid to severe deterioration very high
Natural system modifications happening now whole area/population (>90%) very rapid to severe deterioration very high
Agricultural expansion and intensification happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Transportation and service corridors likely in short term (within 4 years) some of area/population (10-49%) slow but significant deterioration medium

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected areas Management plan Other action Result
Whole area of site (>90%) covered by appropriate conservation designation A management plan exists but it is out of date or not comprehensive Very little or no conservation action taking place low
