Charles Darwin Reserve: Protected Woodland and Heathland Mapping in Western Australia
Ecological transition zone between South West and Eremean provinces
Located in the north-eastern Wheatbelt, Charles Darwin Reserve is a privately managed nature reserve defined by its extensive eucalypt woodland and sand-plain heath. The area serves as a critical refuge for wildlife, characterized by mature York and salmon gums that offer rare, hollow-dependent shelter in a landscape largely modified by agriculture.
