This collection examines how Australia’s landscapes are used, mapped and managed, connecting historical change with current pressures and future planning. Dedicated to landscape scientist Rob Lesslie, it brings together researchers and practitioners working with land information, natural resources and environmental decision-making.
Chapters cover land-use data and maps, soil change, wilderness and biodiversity, regional planning, environmental accounts and landscape connectivity. Contributors consider the relationship between scientific evidence and policy and describe approaches to more coordinated land management. Figures, maps, tables and a glossary support the discussion. The 2018 volume includes a clearly identified reprinted chapter alongside its contemporary contributions.
