Body

Several pasture types in central Australia are undergoing important changes. Trees and shrubs are increasing on some alluvial soils. Acacia, Cassia, Eremophila and Eucalyptus species form locally dense stands. Acacia aneura (mulga) is increasing on red earth plains where run -on is favourable. Changed fire patterns appear to be an important cause of change. . . . .
