Abstract: | [Extract] This document reports on the long-term health of inshore seagrass meadows and presents the findings in the context of the pressures faced by the ecosystem. Inshore seagrass meadows across the Reef continued to decline in overall condition in 2018–19, further overturning some of the recovery experienced during a period from mid 2010 to mid 2017. The condition grade for inshore seagrass meadows has remained poor. All regions this year have an overall seagrass condition grade of poor, including a downgrade from moderate in the Burdekin region and an improvement from very poor in the Burnett–Mary region. |
