This dataset consists of the results of surveys of people to assess their use, dependency, wellbeing and perception of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). This was setup as five closely related surveys designed for different demographic groups. These were: fishers, residents, tourists, tourist operators and a national resident survey. Each of these surveys was designed to capture results across the same themes, but the questions in each survey were tailored to each group.

Feral pigs (Sus scrofa) are widespread in northern Australia. Pigs are on our farm lands, in the bush, on the beach and in the world heritage areas of the Wet Tropics rainforest. CSIRO scientists who are monitoring and modelling pig populations in Queensland have one message: Protect what you love.

This milestone report presents a catalogue of information for the most significant and updated data sets, metadata and map compositions for the Torres Strait region, which may be suitable for inclusion in the Torres Strait eAtlas. The datasets included in this catalogue are described more fully in three previous reports. Pitcher et al 2004 collated all CSIRO seabed survey datasets prior to 2004 and integrated them to a common level of seabed habitat classification. Those datasets providing the broadest coverage of Torres Strait are included here.
