Algal availability of phosphorus discharged from different catchment sources

Algal Management Strategies, Nutrient Management Strategies and Catchment Management Plans frequently have as a major focus the reduction of phosphorus loads to surface waters. The expressed intention of the nutrient control is to reduce the frequency and intensity of algal blooms, particularly blooms of toxic cyanobacteria. In many instances a direct link between the magnitude of algal blooms and phosphorus loads has not been demonstrated. However, there is appreciable information in the scientific (more)...

An Australian Handbook of Stream Roughness Coefficients

This handbook provides information on estimates of roughness values that have been made for Australian streams. It is hoped that by sharing this database, practitioners will be able to make improved estimates of roughness at other sites. We would also

Australia's Tropical Rivers

Data Audit

In response to the need to better understand Australia’s tropical river systems, the Tropical Rivers Data Audit was commissioned with funding provided by the Natural Heritage Trust’s Rivercare program. The project was undertaken between July and December 2003, by NGIS Australia in conjunction with Gutteridge Haskins Davey and Ecobyte Systems.

Capacity Assessment Tool

The Capacity Assessment Tool is designed to help people to think about, and work through, the issues associated with their capacity to engage in riparian restoration works.

Capacity building and knowledge exchange methods for community-based river and riparian management

This report brings together the results of the trip with an executive summary introducing readers to the content of the report by comparing and contrasting Canadian and Australian approaches to capacity building and knowledge exchange.The executive summar

Catchment assessment techniques to help determine priorities in river restoration

The intent is for the assessment techniques described to provide an improved rational basis for setting stream rehabilitation priorities. Focus catchments were chosen that had issues aligned with those in the project objectives. Two existing assessment techniques; SedNet (Prosser et al., 2001) and RARC (Jansen et al., 2004a), were selected to be developed for regional scale priority setting, based on the project team’s expertise with these techniques. These techniques were (more)...
