Locations of sites across northern Australia both west and east of the main study area of the Gulf of Carpentaria (GOC). See Table 2 for location coordinates. Instances of 2015 dieback of shoreline mangroves occurred from Mangrove Bay near Exmouth to the Gulf. B. Gulf sites were spread across six sub-regional areas. Severe damage (75–100% loss of shoreline mangroves) was recorded mostly at four sites (GOC3, GOC4, GOC6 & GOC7) further assessed in the field in 2018, while less severe dieback (25–75%) was observed in 2017 and 2019 during aerial shoreline surveys from Weipa (QLD) to Blue Mud Bay (NT) (Image source: illustration by NCD using basemap from NESP NA Hub).
