Groundwater Model – Lake Victoria Consent Reporting |
|
|
Management of Lake Victoria is crucial to regulating flow on the Murray and Darling
Rivers, by providing artificial storage when water is available. However, long-term artificial storage in Lake Victoria has the
potential to cause local water logging and land salinisation. Ecoseal developed coupled flow and transport models to assess
lake/aquifer interaction and to assess the long-term impact of lake operations on groundwater salinity. Scenarios were
undertaken to model the effect of below average rainfall resulting in low or empty conditions in Lake Victoria and high rainfall
and its impact on salinity transport to the lake.

Groundwater Management Model for the Lower Murray, Australia
The aim of this project was to develop a groundwater management model which was used by natural resource managers and the community to better manage the groundwater resources of the Lower Murray. This region has been designated as a potential high-risk aquifer system.
