Presentation transcript:

Studland Managing Studland National Nature Reserve Studland is located in Dorset, on the south coast. The satellite image shows the range of colours on the Studland peninsula - these correspond to different vegetation types. This valuable habitat is also an extremely popular recreational area.

What management issues affect the NNR? - 1 Conflict 1 - Nature.v. nature Heathland.v. Scots Pine - Scots Pine invades the heath. Rhododendron - this overpowers all other types of ground vegetation. Pirri-pirri burr (from New Zealand via scrap wool for soil treatment) widespread in car parks, displacing native species Slipper Limpet (from North America with introduced Oysters) now commonest shell on the beach, having displaced native shellfish.

What management issues affect the NNR? - 2 Conflict 2 - People.v. People jetskis.v. swimmers naturists.v. clothed dog walkers.v. horse riders & bathers bird watchers and everyone else (especially Naturists…) Conflicts can be reduced by zoning these activities into their own areas. The birdhide doesn’t help when fishermen are walking round in front, scaring the birds away.... Shortly after the photo was taken, the birdwatchers and fisherman started fighting, scaring away both the birds and the fish....

What management issues affect the NNR? - 3 Conflict 3 - People.v. Nature trampling destroys vegetation cover, allowing dune "blow-outs" to occur dog walkers disturbing ground nesting birds picnickers leave litter fire risks are heightened by careless use of cigarettes or barbecues

What are the main management strategies? - 1 Zoning: create areas for different uses - barbecues, games, swimming, jet skis Provision: create a honeypot with parking, toilets, gifts and snacks Exclusion: create areas where activities (or indeed people) are not allowed. This implies a need for policing. Education & information: provide leaflets or interpretation boards to help visitors appreciate/understand the qualities of the area.

What are the main management strategies? - 2 Plant communities - Foredune - Mobile dunes - Dune grassland - Dune heath - Dry, humid and wet heathland - Mires and bog- pools Identify features of high national / international significance at Studland and zone land use accordingly to reduce pressure on these areas.. Reptiles - Sand lizard, Smooth snake Breeding birds - Dartford warbler - Nightjar - Hobby Invertebrates - Moths - Ground and shore bugs - Beetles - Grasshoppers and crickets

This is the last slide. You should now be able to 1) identify the different types of conflict in managing a nature reserve - nature.v. nature conflicts people.v. people conflicts people.v. nature conflicts 2) recognise different management strategies to reduce conflicts - * zoning & waymarking * provision (eg honeypots) * exclusion from sensitive areas * education
