River floodplain - foodweb subsidies

Stuart Bunn
This project will describe how seasonal flooding of rivers over their floodplains contributes to changes in the foodweb as feeding grounds for aquatic fauna expand and contract and determine how some current land management practices are affecting the floodplain food webs of northern rivers. The primary focus for the project will be the Mitchell River floodplain in Queensland. Some components of the project will also take place in the Daly River floodplain in the Northern Territory.
