WCBF2014 CBA_aquatic_and_ESA_MosselBay.shp

Identified ‘Critical Biodiversity Areas’(CBAs) and ‘Ecological Support Areas’ (ESAs) from the Western Cape Biodiversity Framework (Kirkwood et al., 2010), updated in 2014 (Pence) to more accurately reflect conditions relevant to land-use decision making. The Western Cape Biodiversity Framework (WCBF) provides an edge-matched, wall-to-wall coverage of all standard CBA categories to inform land-use decision making. Areas have either been formally assessed as part of a recognised Systematic Biodiversity Plan or only have ‘known’ CBA and ESA features indicated

Purpose

All Critical Biodiversity Area (CBA) data for the Western Cape were updated to more accurately reflect: where CBAs were intentionally identified within agricultural fields, where CBAs have been lost to agricultural expansion (between 2007 and 2011), where CBAs are potentially rehabilitating from agricultural land-use, and where CBAs have now been secured into the Protected Area Network
