This monitoring report describes the first monitoring data that was collected after ecological thinning treatments were implemented in river red gum forests in the Millewa precinct of Murray Valley National Park.

The post-thinning data was compared with the pre-thinning baseline data collected before ecological thinning. The analyses in this report explore the immediate effects of thinning on a range of variables in comparison with 2015 data.
