Fire regime groups - Cape York Peninsula

Fire Regime Groups are groups of related regional ecosystems that share common fire management intent and are grouped for the purpose of practical fire management. These groups have been developed as part of the Department of Environment and Science, Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service Fire Management System to optimise the use of fire to maintain biodiversity, protect life and property, improve fire management and provide rangers and other land managers with the knowledge and ability to adapt fire management practices within a changing climate.This data is linked to a series of state-wide planned burn guidelines that are based on Queensland's thirteen bioregions. This dataset contains the Fire Regime Groups for the Cape York Peninsula Bioregion.
