Determining rehabilitation success - Monitoring and determining end-point criteria for rehabilitated land following bauxite mining at Weipa, North Queensland.
In conjunction with Comalco Aluminium Ltd, the CMLR has developed a set of parameters against which the majority of
rehabilitation at Weipa can be assessed for stability and future management requirements. The monitoring of sites
established over a 10 year period of collaborative research has provided valuable information on a series of criteria
including:
- species composition, community structure and vegetation health;
- resilience of the rehabilitated communities to fire;
- reproductive capacity of the rehabilitation; and
- soil physical, chemical and microbial activity.
