Adaptive management boundaries for the Lower Limestone Coast based on unconfined aquifer thickness, stratigraphy, structure and depth to water

The aim of this study was to review and apply current knowledge to identify what management boundaries could be with consideration of current groundwater science and what triggers could be applied to better manage groundwater resources.

Effects of climate variability and change on groundwater impacts of forestry plantations

The modelling suggests that the groundwater impacts of plantations vary in spaceand time and that the deemed rates over-estimate these impacts, on average.Accounting for variation in the effects of climate on the various components of ET,both spatially and temporally, may allow for more flexible rules for water resourceallocation than using any simple, rule-of-thumb approach. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/hyp.15213

Groundwater recharge under softwood and hardwood forests in the Green Triangle

The understanding of groundwater recharge characteristics for the Lower Limestone Coast (LLC) region is the subject of ongoing research by various institutions. A stronger understanding is required because land users in the region including agriculture and plantation forests are subject to water licencing arrangements.

Estimate of Hardwood Estate Loss in the Green Triangle attributed to Water Allocation Plan

Forest growers in the Green Triangle Forest Industries Hub (GTFIH) ‘Water Working Group’ worked collaboratively to quantify the ‘Loss of Estate’ since the introduction of the Water Allocation Plan (WAP) in November 2013. They also forecasted the loss of estate which will occur between December 2022 and 2025, the expected conclusion of the review of […]
