Gwent Levels - Resilient Ecological Networks
Gwent Levels Nature Networks · Nature Network Boundary · Core Zone · Nature Recovery Zone These files are the mapped products of the Gwent Levels Nature Network, including the layers which define resilient ecological networks in this area: Core and Nature Recovery Zone.
The output of the project has identified 42 core zones covering 18,979 hectares (ha) and 86 nature recovery zones covering 2,214 ha as two GIS layers. These broadly comprise freshwater, fen, bog, semi-natural grassland, and native woodland ecosystems.
