2016 SoE Biodiversity Adequacy of protection of nationally threatened species

Original source information

What does this dataset contain?

Analysed data on the adequacy of protection of nationally threatened species, 2010–16. Dataset sourced from Taylor, MFJ (2016) Building Nature’s Safety Net 2016: State of Australian terrestrial protected areas 2010 to 2016. WWF-Australia, Sydney. Unpublished. Data inputs to this analysis include data from CAPAD & SNES sourced from the Australian Government Department of the Environment and Energy. For further information on these databases see: http://www.environment.gov.au/about-us/environmental-information-data/open-data This data has been used by the Department of Environment and Energy to produce Figure BIO37 in the Biodiversity theme of Australia State of the Environment 2016, available at https://soe.environment.gov.au/theme/biodiversity/topic/2016/management-status#adequacy-of-protection-of-nationally-threatened-species-2010--72151 It is recommended you view this data in conjunction with the SoE 2016 Biodiversity report, specifically the section titled 'Management effectiveness > Management status'.
