IBA Conservation

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2004. The most recent assessment (2015) is shown below.

IBA conservation assessment
Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2015 unfavourable high low
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
no habitat good

State (condition of the trigger species' habitats)
Habitat Quantity (% remaining) Quality (% carrying capacity) Result
Forest moderate (70-90%) moderate (70-90%) unfavourable

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Human intrusions and disturbance happening now some of area/population (10-49%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Pollution happening now some of area/population (10-49%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Natural system modifications likely in long term (beyond 4 years) some of area/population (10-49%) moderate to rapid deterioration medium
Geological events likely in long term (beyond 4 years) some of area/population (10-49%) moderate to rapid deterioration medium
Agricultural expansion and intensification likely in long term (beyond 4 years) some of area/population (10-49%) slow but significant deterioration medium
Biological resource use past (and unlikely to return) and no longer limiting whole area/population (>90%) very rapid to severe deterioration low
Residential and commercial development likely in short term (within 4 years) small area/few individuals (<10%) moderate to rapid deterioration low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected areas Management plan Other action Result
Most of site (50-90%) covered (including the most critical parts for important bird species) A management plan exists but it is out of date or not comprehensive Very little or no conservation action taking place low
