Vale Torto catchment occupies the central lower part of this image. The catchment is c. 10 ha in size and is being instrumented to record soil losses before and after prescribed (controlled) fire. Prescribed fire is a measure intended to reduce the fuel load and therefore the likelihood of wildfire and its degradational effects. (© Rick Shakesby)
