The natural resources department would meanwhile use a ramped-up monitoring program delivering fortnightly satellite images to "help identify unexplained changes", with priority given to "high-value vegetation and larger areas", a spokesman said.
In red edge concept, the spectral reflectance of NIR is radioed with red band, which gives very high values for vegetation than other features on Earth.
The report, released on Wednesday ahead of Australia's formal update to Unesco in December, originally listed legislative changes to "protect remnant and high value regrowth native vegetation" as "on track/under way".
Tc returns a high value for ash-affected vegetation and its value decreases with vegetation recovery.
Low NDVI values are associated with water, snow, sand, rock, and dead vegetation, whereas high values represent healthy green vegetation such as forests and grasslands.
Some environmental variables and above-ground vegetation, seed rain, ant-borne seeds and seed banks were studied on three abandoned fields, at the margins between these fields and a remnant patch of a native steppe vegetation of a high value for nature and species conservation.
Since the carbon content has remained at a high value from 3.5 m depth onwards, the area was probably covered with rich vegetation.
The high value of drainage density indicates that the region is composed of impermeable subsurface materials, sparse vegetation and high mountainous relief.
Swaths of native vegetation, much of which WWF said was in catchments for the Great Barrier Reef, were approved for clearing after the former Newman government watered down tree-clearing protections to enable more "high value" agriculture.
High price must mean high value, right?
The sub-watershed with high value of Dd indicates a well-developed network, which is conducive for quick disposal of runoff resulting in intense floods and also characterized by a region of weak subsurface materials, high relief and sparse vegetation.
