  • Heavy Metals in the Sediments of Northern Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia
    HEAVY METALS IN THE SEDIMENTS OF NORTHERN MORETON BAY, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA James Peter Brady B Ed (Sec), B AppSc (Chem), M AppSci (Research)(Chemistry) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Chemistry, Physics and Mechanical Engineering Science and Engineering Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2015 i Keywords Bioavailability assessment; Bramble Bay; Contamination; Deception Bay; Enrichment Factor; Fraction analysis; Heavy metal distribution; Heavy metal enrichment; Modified Pollution Index; Nemerow Pollution Index; Pollution index; Sediment quality guidelines; Source apportionment; X-ray Fluorescence. Heavy metals in the sediments of Northern Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia i ii Abstract Moreton Bay is located 14 kilometres east of the Brisbane Central Business District in Queensland, Australia. The Northern half of Moreton Bay (north of the Brisbane River) encompasses Deception and Bramble Bays, which are sanctuaries to endangered wildlife and migratory seabirds, along with a significant seafood industry. There have been few attempts to assess heavy metal pollution in Moreton Bay, resulting in a lack of understanding of heavy metal sources, distributions, temporal behaviour and bioavailability. The lack of this information has resulted in limited capacity to accurately assess the risk human health from heavy metals present in Northern Moreton Bay and to the ecosystem. This is the first work since the late 1970’s to assess sediment contamination within Northern Moreton Bay, model the pollution sources and heavy metal distributions and finally propose improved Sediment Quality Guidelines, pollution indices and a routine heavy metals monitoring program in order to assess and monitor the risk posed by heavy metals in the weak acid soluble fraction of the sediments in Deception and Bramble Bays.

  • 2015 WQ Coastal Citizen Science Summary
    Contents Introduction & Background Events & Partnerships Monitoring Achievements, Activities, Aims Acknowledgements 2 Introduction Why do we monitor? Seagrasses and mangroves are indicators of aquatic health and early indicators of change, so much so they’ve been dubbed ‘coastal canaries’. They are Introduction & coastal kidneys - trapping sediment and nutrients from the land which are Background harmful to the marine ecology. Mangroves reduce the erosive and potentially catastrophic effects of storm surges and tsunamis, doing so cheaper and better than man-made structures. And, mangroves and seagrasses sequester carbon - they have the ability to store carbon far more effectively than terrestrial forests. As a seafood-loving country we should know that over 70% of the fish, crabs and prawns we eat are reliant on mangroves and seagrasses during some stage of their life cycle. These ‘coastal canaries’ are habitat for large numbers of other species – biodiversity that have an intrinsic right to exist. Background Wildlife Preservation Society of Queensland’s Coastal Citizen Science (WQCCS) coordinates MangroveWatch (MW) and SeagrassWatch (SGW) in and around Moreton Bay, its rivers and creeks. These scientifically rigourous programs were devised by scientists from James Cook University and are conducted globally. Citizen science is broadly defined as the involvement of volunteers in the collection of data for scientific purposes. Teaming volunteers with the scientific community in this way provides important data that would not otherwise be available. Training provided by the scientists and ongoing quality assessment of the data collected ensures the validity of the data for scientific assessment. The data can then be used by natural resource managers and other decision-makers to guide investment and to undertake preventative measures and restorative actions.

Brisbane. ISSN 0079-8835. ABSTRACT A review of the 95 species of the Ascidiacea recorded from Moreton Bay, Queensland shows that solitary species of Phlebobranchia and Stolidobranchia (53 species) dominate the fauna, there being few colonial species of either suborder and only 30 species of the almost exclusively colonial Aplousobranchia, eight being species of the Didemnidae recorded only from locations immediately to the north of the Bay rather than in its semi-enclosed waters.
