Impact of introduced species on grassy box woodland ecosystems
Inquiry Question: How do introduced species affect the Australian environment and ecosystems?
Students:
● outline the biotic and abiotic effects of introduced species
● conduct an investigation into a local introduced species, including:
– reason for introducing the species
– biotic and abiotic effects of the species
– area affected by the species
– human impacts that favour the introduced species
– control or mitigation methods – economic impact of the species
– different views about the value of and/or harm caused by the introduced species, including the views of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples
● analyse ways in which human activity can upset the balance of ecosystems and favour introduced species (ACSES027)
● describe ways in which introduced species contribute to the decline or extinction of native Australian species (ACSES081)
