Significant outcomes.

Limitations & disclosures.

Reference Benchmarks - The principal limitation of this account is the level of confidence in the expert assessment of reference condition for soils of the Strzelecki. No empirical data have been found earlier than the 1960s when formal soil surveys commenced. By that time, almost 100 years of change had occurred. There is a small number of relatively undisturbed sites in the local area. Such sites include the Pioneer Reserve in Kongwak. Soil sampling in this reserve may provide useful reference data for future refinement of existing Econd® values.
