Fragmentation of remnant vegetation
Key Finding
In the most recent 2015–2017 period, the New England Tablelands has experienced the greatest patch density increase (13.4%) and greatest remnant core areas density loss (-2%). The Gulf Plains experienced the greatest increase in the frequency of edges (226), the Brigalow Belt the greatest increase in patches (316) and the Mulga Lands the greatest fragmentation of core areas into smaller core units (400). These examples demonstrate that fragmentation has many guises and they do not necessarily correlate with rates of clearing.

Queensland
Landscape fragmentation ‘breaks up’ large areas of intact native vegetation, reducing ecological connectivity — the critical connection between ecosystems and habitats that allows wildlife to cross the landscape in search of food, shelter and suitable breeding sites. The opening up of surrounding areas can impact species survival through predation, exposure and decreased food availability.
The rate of remnant vegetation fragmentation, represented as changes in core, edge, and patch remnants across the landscape, was measured using the statewide regional ecosystem mapping time-series (biennial from 1997 to 2017).
The results show that although fragmentation has been increasing across Queensland, there was a notable decline in the rate of fragmentation for the period 2009 – 2011, from its historic peak between 1999 – 2003. From 2011 through to 2017, there has been another gradual increase in fragmentation, though not to the same extent as 1999 – 2003. This trend was not uniform across all bioregions and was generally more prevalent in the Brigalow Belt, Desert Uplands, Einasleigh Uplands, Mitchell Grass Downs, Mulga Lands and New England Tablelands.
For the period from 1997 to 2017, the percent change in patch, edge, and core areas was examined for overall trends in the rate of fragmentation across the state. The key trends include:
- Across the state, the rate of patch fragmentation peaked between 1999 and 2001 (9%).
- The peak period for the rate of edge creation (4.1%) and the break-up of core areas (4.5%) was between 2001 and 2003, though very similar to the 1999 to 2001 period (4.1% and 4.2%).
- The period between 2009 and 2011 was a period with the slowest rate of core (0.2%), edge (0.4%) and patch creation (0.4%), however there has been a trend of increase from then, with 2013–2015 recording an increase in patches (3.6%) and the most recent 2015–2017 period recording the highest rate of edge (1.6%) and core creation (0.8%).
For the most recent 2015–2017 reporting period, density and frequency change was examined across Queensland bioregions to determine where fragmentation was most prevalent. It was found that:
- New England Tablelands (NET) had the greatest increase in patch density (13.4 per 1,000km2).
- Mulga Lands (MUL) had the greatest increase in both core density (3.5 per 1,000km2) and number of new core areas created (400).
- Brigalow Belt (BRB) had the greatest number of patches created (316).
- Gulf Plains (GUP) had the greatest number of edges created (226).

Brigalow Belt
Landscape fragmentation ‘breaks up’ large areas of intact native vegetation, reducing ecological connectivity — the critical connection between ecosystems and habitats that allows wildlife to cross the landscape in search of food, shelter and suitable breeding sites. The opening up of surrounding areas can impact species survival through predation, exposure and decreased food availability.
For the period from 1997 to 2017, the percent change in patch, edge, and core areas was examined for overall trends in the rate of fragmentation across the Brigalow Belt Bioregion (BRB). The key trends include:
- The peak period for fragmentation in the BRB was between 1999 and 2001 (16% for patches, 3.1% for edges, and 4% for core).
- The 2007 to 2013 period had comparatively low rates of fragmentation, with the lowest rate of patch (0.5%) and edge (0.1%) creation occurring in 2009–2011.
- There has been a slight trend of increased patch and edge creation since 2013, with the highest rate occurring in the most recent 2015–2017 period (2.2% for patches and 0.5% for edges).
For the most recent 2015–2017 reporting period, density and frequency change was examined across sub-regions to determine where fragmentation was most prevalent. It was found that:
- Most BRB sub-regions have experienced some level of fragmentation.
- Narrandool had the greatest increase in the density of patches (88.4 per 1,000km2), edges (233.6 per 1,000km2) and core areas (285.5 per 1,000km2) compared to any other sub-region. This sub-region is relatively small in Queensland compared to others, but the magnitude of change in terms of density was significant.
- Belyando Downs had the highest frequency of core (54) and edge creation (35) and the second highest number of patches created (25).
- Isaac–Comet Downs had the highest number of patches created (26).
- Moonie R.–Commoron Creek Floodout had the greatest loss in the number of core areas (-38), which means that 38 core areas were either removed completely, or converted to patches.
- Beucazon Hills had no change in the frequency of patch, edge and core values.

Landscape fragmentation ‘breaks up’ large areas of intact native vegetation, reducing ecological connectivity — the critical connection between ecosystems and habitats that allows wildlife to cross the landscape in search of food, shelter and suitable breeding sites. The opening up of surrounding areas can impact species survival through predation, exposure and decreased food availability.
For the period from 1997 to 2017, the percent change in patch, edge, and core areas was examined for overall trends in the rate of fragmentation across the Cape York Peninsula Bioregion (CYP). The key trends include:
- Cape York Peninsula (CYP) has experienced relatively consistent edge creation, peaking in 2003–2005 (9.8%) with the lowest level being in 2011–2013 (2.2%).
- The percent increase in the number of patches created was also relatively consistent, peaking in 1999–2001 (7.2%) with the lowest percent increase occurring in 2015–2017 (1.5%).
- For such a relatively intact bioregion, that main characteristic of fragmentation is the exposure and break up of large tracts of vegetation, exposing more edges.
For the most recent 2015–2017 reporting period, density and frequency change was examined across sub-regions to determine where fragmentation was most prevalent. It was found that:
- Change over the 2015–2017 period is consistent with the historical trend of edge fragmentation being introduced into large core areas.
- The Weipa Plateau sub-region had the highest overall number of edges (25) and core areas (8) created in the bioregion.
- 3 patches were created across the bioregion during this period.

Metadata
The statistics are derived from a landscape fragmentation analysis of the Queensland regional ecosystem remnant cover time-series (1997 to 2017) for each bioregion and sub-region. The analysis is similar to the Landscape Fragmentation and Connectivity (LFC) Tool developed to test for Significant Residual Impact on Connectivity Areas under the Environmental Offsets Framework.
