Watertable and Salinity Management to Reduce Saline Inflows to Rivers and Stressed Ecosystems |
|
|
This study contributed to an understanding of the flow mechanisms in the Billabong
Creek catchment and for minimising the transport of salt to streams in catchments where clearing of native vegetation commenced
over 100 years ago. The water use and net drainage for three tree species was evaluated for various soil types in Billabong
Creek using a forest growth model. Ecoseal developed optimisation models and undertook scenario analysis to identify optimal
sites for locating interception bores and for targeted revegetation strategies in upland areas of the catchments.

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.
