PREFACE
PROBLEM Stop European rabbit for spreading action have been over decades, they wreak havoc from broader to broader and gnaw the land of Australia. Moreover, they impact human economic such as lower the husbandry production or damage artificial facilities and cause extra money on repair it. People tried hunting, baiting, fencing the boundries and even virus them. Highly repoduction and land conditions are the reasons that makes rabbit overflow in Australia.
APPROACH Different from the traditional restriction fence the area and eliminate rabbit. Through use the landscape architecture role to restrict the rabbit via design decrease the rabbit adaptive and limited rabbit's reproduction from reproduction. In addition, the restriction technique not only just restrict the rabbit but also can create more oppurtunities to local industries and bring more value to the design. - Connection + Restriction / L MAP - Redirect + Recharging / M MAP - Shifting + Disturbance / S MAP

PREFACE
ABSTRACT " Invasive species" are seen as a threat in different countries. One of the notorious species is the " European rabbit". It reduces the land capacity and directly affects biodiversity, damaging Australian flora and competing with the local fauna. The state of Victoria has a high percentage of agriculture industries. Yarra ranges especially relied on agriculture, husbandry, and tourism, which are impacted by the rabbit. The intention of the project to reduce the impact of rabbits on high-value biodiversity, agriculture, and community assets via regeneration of damaged land. Through design devices such as direction(ditch), observation(monitor station), and intervention(sowing new vegetation), the project intends to restore the systems.
Boundaries are also extended to control the invasion of rabbits to the managed land. Those boundaries will include road systems, vegetation planting(specific rabbit dislike plant), and natural boundaries(Yarra River). At the same time, the local industries that have been separated by the Yarra River and the isolated regeneration area will be connected to complete the system. Through the design research, an exploration into the management of invasive species has developed from tactics of "elimination" using landscape features to suppression using regeneration and via natural factors to decrease the damage to the environment. Moreover, this brings activation of local opportunities to bring more value to ecology and economics in the region.

Research has shown that as rabbit numbers increase pasture biomass decreases, species composition changes (e.g. there are fewer legumes and more grasses) and bare areas increase (Croft et al, 2002). Land closely related to the creature on it. Land provide clean water, food resources and shelter Not most of the invasive species cause catastrophe but one of the species "European rabbit" drove the land capacity lower, soil erosion, biodiversity loss and economic lost. Therefore, the goals committed to sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, halt and reverse land degradation, halt biodiversity loss. " BRING THE NATURE BACK ".

WHAT IS INVASIVE SPECIES?
An invasive species are new creatures that intervention the local environment and brings negative impact on living things. Although not all invasive species bring negative aspects to the living land like evolution, biodiversity, and biocontrol. Relatively, invasive species also can replace and engulf local species thus become the environment's main character and brings ecology, economic and environmental losses. In 21st-century invasives species become a serious issue that causes many countries massive damage.

PAST-CURRENT
Australia has been attacked by the invasives species for ages and it causes local industries massive losses and ecological catastrophe. Especially between 2011 - 2012 invasive species cost economic loss estimated at over $13.6 billion. Therefore, the European rabbit no doubt is one of the serious issues that hammer Australian industries. European rabbit competitive with the livestock, lower the land capacity, soil erosion, and water pollution. Australia's government focuses on this issue and responding to the situation. One of the effective ways is spreading the European rabbit virus to poison them. It is a very effective way in the short term also the virus wipes out nearly 99% of the rabbit number. But rabbits still come back to the land eventually because of their high reproduction and strong adaptive. Moreover, most of them got antibodies to protect them be effect from a virus. Despite this, the number of rabbits is still high, especially in the agricultural sector. After all, there are not enough precedents to solve landscape design problems. Consider how to combine with strategy and maintain it in landscape design to effectively solve problems.

PREFACE
European rabbit was introduced in Australia wild in1859 for hunting. There had 13 rabbits sent from across the world. Thomas Austin let them roam free on his property backyard and rabbits only take 50 years to invasive through the continent. The number of rabbits increasing steeply and it started destroyed crops, leading the soil erosion and water pollution.
Pasture is a very important resource for the husbandry industry. Rabbit competitive with the livestock, lower the land capacity and indirect cause the manufacturing industry like wool industry loss. After, the release of RHDV and myxomatosis. It effectively reduced the damage caused by rabbits and restore the environment's temporary. But, it is unlikely to keep populations down over the long term.
European rabbit through time, they produce antibodies and start to reproduction again. Brings the damage back to land, increase highly. Potential putting agriculture and industry into risk. Plan a lond term appear important then short term . Otherwise, the number of the rabbit will continue to grow and raoming back to Australia land.

PREFACE
DESIGN BRIEF
Issue of the " Invasive species ", it brings the ecology and the economy losses more than people think and it also causes the side effect like transfer decease or damaging the environment. The government set up many strategies and plan to stop the rabbit for wreak havoc through the Victoria state such as a fence, hunting, and bio-control and that is not efficient enough and even brings some impact to industry and ecology system. Thinking of using the other ways as landscape architecture techniques like boundary, connection, and topology to improve the situation in a friendly way but not brings more side effects to the environment and low maintenance. In addition, focus on the serious area caused by the rabbit and analysis where is the most important places that need to be set up a frame for design first. Next, how to use those techniques to restore the damaged land in the meantime organize the winery and those activities into the system for create more value to industries. Creating a complete network to make the place become a more attractive place to bring more people to visit the place. The aim is to restrict rabbit and brings more opportunities to local industry simultaneously not ignore how the environment is important to the native species and restore the environment that been caused damage by the rabbit invasive. Finally, considered the time scale of how to transfer the envitonment into other environment to make rabbit hard to adapt in it again.

In addition, Yarra Valley also have different kind of the activities to provide people to join it. Also, the site have cropping and grazing area that brings local industries more economy. But, there are lots of land that haven't been manage by human. One of the invasive species " European Rabbit " is the issue that makes agriculture suffer and losses in Australia. Government use the myxomatosis virus to decrease 98% of European rabbit number but some of the rabbit have antibody production. The number of the rabbit might pop back again. Therefore, focus on those already been damaged by the rabbit land and unmanagement are to regenerate the zone and intent to shifting the environment into another and makes the rabbit can't adapt in it.

Description Through overlay the European rabbit conditions to find out the cluster zone and range. Target the un-management land and focus on those specific areas to restore the areas. In addition, restore an ecology system usually start at the small and specific area which makes these areas isolated. Integration of the restoration area will be an important part that needs to be considered in the landscape. Therefore, create a corridor, path, and road as a connection is an important action that needs to be plan through, via that connection allows that easier to traveling, exchange biodiversity and make people easier to observe and maintain the system. In practice, thinking of how to use the path to connect those isolated restored areas, at the same time also restrict the other potential rabbit cluster to lower the rabbit movement direction. Finally, identify the connection's main function to complete the ecology system and tourism network.

Surface erosion-
Surface ponding-
European rabbit causes ground cover less and digging warren all over the site . Therefore, the flat ground surface in Yarra Valley might have inundation possiblilty.
European rabbit is a social animal. Once, the number reach it to a point it might causes large area ground surface soil losses. In addition, the area also losses the ground cover, the rain can easily take away more soil. Therefore, it will become a big flooding area.
- Small puddle: Widely distributed
RMIT MLA DESIGN RESEARCH PROJECT
Factor 03-
Surface saturation-
Agriculture wheels track-
During the rain season some of the ground surface charging to much water that the land can't absorb anymore. Therefore, the water might cross all over the site and causes small scale of the flooding.
The agriculture farming machine pass through the flooding area might remain the track because the flooding area makes the soil become muddy and not tight. Therfore, cause the secondary injury to the land.

Description Focus on un-management area, inundation area, and rabbit cluster spots to generate where to zoom in for design at the next step. After identifying the damaged land will focus on how to restore the environment that been damaged by European rabbit. Rabbit causes land less ground cover, competitive with the livestock and the agriculture losses. The reason that focuses on the un-management land because the land stakeholder will take care there own property and it will keep the rabbit's number under control. Vice versa, on the un-management land rabbit, can be breeding rapidly because there are no human intervention and the natural conditions provide the perfect area to live. At this stage, direct and accumulate the ground surface water to recharging the land not only can restoration the environment but also can reuse and save the water for agriculture use. Although the land is flat, it might be more easily to stagnant the water on the surface and it will cause flooding. Using a ditch to dredge the water and accumulate it will increase the land capacity.

Reserve area One of the un-management lands is the reserve area. People usually ignore the area and rabbits might be hidden in those places breeding and invasive the land again. The map highlight where are less ground cover and where is full of abundant vegetation area which matches the terrain that the lower spot accumulates more water that provides vegetation more water to absorb. The design ditches according to the water flow on the surface to generate it. Those ditches hijack to water on the surface and accumulate them into the pond to provide those vegetation need. In addition, the site cover by the sedimentary geological province and the pond will diffuse and recharging the land to regenerate the damaged land. Finally, sowing rabbits dislike seeds and shrubs to recover those none ground cover areas. This move will intervention and intent to shifting the environment into the other environment to make sure the European rabbit will not invasive the land again.

Grazing area Grazing area is one of the important agriculture in Yarra Valley. European rabbit damaged the ground cover and competitive with the life stock. This make the husbandry losses massive. In addition, livestock and Europran rabbit nutrition all come from the pasture which mean the land capacity need to endure more. Thinking through regenerate the environment to bring back the ground cover, steady the soil from erosion and sowing new vegetation that rabbit dislike. Intent to shifting the environment into another. Also, integration tree and shrub into the grazing area to ensure a greater matural system. Using the overflooding pond as an accumulate pond to collect the water by ditches and reuse those water for livestock and vegetation. Finally, via intervention to prevent the European rabbit invasive the environment again.
