Southeast Shelf Transition information


Map of the Southeast Shelf Transition

The Southeast Shelf Transition is a biogeographic region of Australia's coastal and continental shelf waters. It covers a portion of Australia's southeastern coast, from southern New South Wales to eastern Victoria, including the islands of the Kent Group and Furneaux Group at the eastern end of the Bass Strait. It is a provincial level bioregion in the Integrated Marine and Coastal Regionalisation of Australia (IMCRA) system, and is a transitional region between the warm temperate Central Eastern Shelf Province to the northeast and the cool temperate Bass Strait Shelf and Tasmanian Shelf provinces to the west and south.[1] It corresponds to the Cape Howe marine ecoregion in the WWF's Marine Ecoregions of the World system.[2]
