Hillslope erosion and post-fire sediment trapping at Mount Bold, South Australia ROWENA MORRIS1,2, DEIRDRE DRAGOVICH3 & BERTRAM OSTENDORF1 1 Earth and Environmental Science, PMB 1, Glen Osmond, University of Adelaide, South Australia 5064, Australia [email protected] 2 Bushfire Cooperative Research Centre, Level 5, 340 Albert Street, East Melbourne, Victoria 3002, Australia 3 School of Geosciences, Madsen Building (F09), University of Sydney, New South Wales 2006, Australia Abstract Successful placement of sediment traps requires an understanding of how hillslope morphology influences erosion. Following the 2007 Mount Bold wildfire, in South Australia, a 1 in 5 year rainfall event resulted in the failure of many sediment traps due to substantial sediment movement within the reservoir reserve. This study assesses how hillslope morphology can influence post-fire surface erosion and the subsequent appropriate placement of sediment traps. Erosion pins and sediment traps were used at five different sites to measure hillslope surface change and trapped sediment volumes. Terrestrial laser scanning was used to model surface change where slope gradients are 1:2 or greater. Surface change was assessed in relation to slope gradient, slope length, cross-slope curvature, hillslope position and fire severity. The results suggested a threshold for substantial increased sediment yield at slope gradients of 1:2. The findings also suggested that concave cross-slope curvatures were associated with significantly larger amounts of sediment movement. Key words water reservoir; sediment trap; erosion pins; terrestrial laser scanning; slope gradient; cross-slope plan curvature, South Australia INTRODUCTION Wildfires influence soil surface processes resulting in the potential for increased sedimentation of reservoirs and impacts on water quality (Smith et al., 2011).

What was the resolution? – The development of strong connections and ongoing partnerships has ensured that the Anangu have benefited socially, economically and environmentally from the exploration activities through local employment, training, support for social events and educational opportunities. Multiple uses PepinNini Minerals Limited is an Australian ASX listed exploration company based in Adelaide (http://www.pepinnini.com.au/). It has a diverse commodity portfolio with projects in both Australia and Argentina.

  • Far Removed: an Insight Into the Labour Markets of Remote Communities in Central Australia
    145 AUSTRALIAN JOURNAL OF LABOUR ECONOMICS VOLUME 19 • NUMBER 3 • 2016 Far Removed: An Insight into the Labour Markets of Remote Communities in Central Australia Michael Dockery, Curtin Business School Judith Lovell, Charles Darwin University Abstract There are ongoing debates about the livelihoods of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians living in remote communities, and the role for policy in addressing socio- economic equity and the economic viability of those communities. The characteristics and dynamics of remote labour markets are important parameters in many of these debates. However, remote economic development discourses are often conducted with limited access to empirical evidence of the actual functioning of labour markets in remote communities – evidence that is likely to have important implications for the efficacy of policy alternatives. Unique survey data collected from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders living in 21 remote communities in central Australia for the Cooperative Research Centre for Remote Economic Participation’s Population Mobility and Labour Markets project are used to examine these labour markets, with a focus on the role of education and training. Examining access to education, employment opportunity and other structural factors, it is clear that the reality of economic engagement in these communities is far removed from the functioning of mainstream labour markets. The assumptions about, or lack of distinction between remote and urban locations, have contributed to misunderstanding of the assets and capabilities remote communities have, and aspire to develop. Evidence from the survey data on a number of fronts is interpreted to suggest policies to promote employment opportunity within communities offer greater potential for improving the livelihoods of remote community residents than policies reliant on the assumption that residents will move elsewhere for work.

  • Watarru Collaboration
    Watarru Collaboration Language Group Pitjantjatjara Region APY Lands Biography The artists of Watarru have received high acclaim for their collaborative paintings. Their initial collaborative works were commissioned by the Department for Environment and Heritage and now hang permanently in the South Australian Parliament. These are the first Indigenous paintings to hang in parliament house. In 2007 they won a major prize in the national Drawing Together competition sponsored by the Australian Public Service Commission, a competitive award, which attracted over 570 entries from across Australia. Tjungu Palya : Located about 100kms south of Uluru, Nyapari is set at the base of the majestic Mann Ranges in the heart of country traditionally owned by the Pitjantjatjara people. These ranges known to Anangu as Murputja, likening the mountain to the bony ridge of a person’s spine, are the source of many water holes and traditional camping places. The homelands of Kanpi, Nyapari, Angatja, Umpukulu and Tjankanu have grown from these seasonal camping places into permanent settlements. Over fifty artists from Murputja joined together with family members living in traditional country 180kms to the south at Watarru and created Tjungu Palya (Good Together). The artists involved in this work vary but are generally, Beryl Jimmy, Tinpulya Mervin, Wipana Jimmy and Imitjala Pollard. Tjungu Palya is 100% owned and managed by Aboriginal people ensuring the wealth of talent and economic returns are retained in the community. Tjungu Palya promotes cultural integrity and the ethical sales of authentic art.
