This map of the potential distribution of Gorse has been produced from CLIMATE® modelling, overlayed with: Overlays used Land uses: Pasture irrigated and dryland Forestry private and public Soil pH: Soils less than or equal to pH 7 Broad vegetation types: Coastal scrubs and grasslands; dry foothill & moist foothill forests, montane dry woodlands; montane moist forests; grasslands; plains grassy woodlands; valley grassy forests; coastal grassy & herb-rich & riverine grassy woodlands; riparian forests; rainshadow woodlands; and mallee heath. Colours indicate possibility of Ulex europaeus infesting these areas. Red = Very High Orange = High Light Green = Medium Dark Green = Likely In the non-coloured areas the plant is unlikely to establish as the climate, soil or landuse is not presently suitable.
