Sediment and nutrient loads: regional scale sediment and nutrient budgets

G. Caitcheon
This project aims to identify which erosion processes, such as runoff, gully and bank erosion, are the most important influences of sediment and nutrient load in different parts of the catchment. The sediment river network model will be used to predict potential impacts of land use change on sediment and nutrient levels in rivers. Models will be developed and tested for the Mitchell river and the Daly river.
