Description
This map shows the connectivity of Casuarina equisetifolia & Pandanus tectorius in the Great Barrier Reef and its surrounding areas: Torres Strait, Coral Sea and Great Sandy regions. The arrows indicate the strength and nature of the connection between the regions. This map is intended to identify where one region is dependent on a neighbouring region.
Additional notes: These are coral cay vegetation pioneer species. This map only shows the connectivity between the GBR and surrounding regions and not regions along the Queensland coast.
The data for this map was developed based on expert opinion (John Olds, Paul Groves).
