The effect of fire on nutrient loss from Top End Savannas

Cook G. (1992) "The effect of fire on nutrient loss from Top End Savannas" Conservation and Development Issues in North Australia. I. M. a. A. Webb pp. 123-129.

This study looks at how regular burning contributes to loss of nutrients from soils in the Top End. The study uses data from the Kapalga fire experiment in Kakadu, to model the impact of fire on soil nutrients.

Fire monitoring plot survey and analysis, Nitmiluk National Park

Edwards A. 2005, 'Fire monitoring plot survey and analysis, Nitmiluk National Park', Parks and Wildlife Service of the Northern Territory and the Bushfires Council of the Northern Territory.

This report discusses the result of the 10-year field assessment at Nitmiluk National Park undertaken in April 2005. In addition to the field survey results, the survey aimed to add to the ongoing development and maintenance of an on-park data management system for fire mapping and monitoring.

Monitoring the impacts of fire regimes on vegetation in northern Australia: an example from Kakadu National Park

Edwards A., Kennett R., Price O., Russell-Smith J., Spiers G., and Woinarski J.C.Z. 2003, 'Monitoring the impacts of fire regimes on vegetation in northern Australia: an example from Kakadu National Park', International Journal of Wildfire, 12, pp. 427–440.

In this study the results of a monitoring program at Kakadu National Park are assessed to identify the effectiveness of differing fire regimes, their impacts on biodiversity and the consequences of the current fire management program.
