SoE2020: Extent and rate of change of riparian vegetation

Created 05/05/2025

Updated 05/05/2025

Change in the extent of woody vegetation within the riparian area for Reef Catchments and South East Queensland. The riparian area has been defined as any area within 50m of a (mapped) stream or wetland. The riparian woody vegetation extent is an estimate based on a remote-sensing derived product, Foliage Projective Cover (using Sentinel-2 satellite data 2016–2017), with a spatial resolution of 10m. Historical and recent losses of riparian woody vegetation are analysed using woody vegetation clearing data from the Statewide Landcover and Trees Study (SLATS) (1988–2017) and ‘pre-development’ estimates of woody vegetation.
