Sustainable Grazing in the Channel Country Floodplains (Phase 2) Abstract ‘Sustainable Grazing in the Channel Country Floodplains’ was initiated by industry to redress the lack of objective information for sustainable management in the floodplains of Cooper Creek and the Diamantina and Georgina Rivers. The project has maintained links with the grazing community and has extensively drawn upon expert local experience and knowledge. The project has provided tools for managers to better anticipate the size of beneficial flooding arising from rains in the upper catchment and to more objectively assess the value of the pasture resulting from flooding. The latest information from the project has enabled customisation of the EDGENetwork™ Grazing Land Management training package for the Channel Country.

  • A Geography of Water Matters in the Ord Catchment, Northern Australia
    A Geography of Water Matters in the Ord Catchment, Northern Australia Jessica Emma McLean A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Geosciences University of Sydney 2010 Abstract This thesis examines water matters in the Ord catchment. It shows how social, environmental, cultural and economic dynamics are manifest in water matters. In so doing, it critiques material and discursive practices that create environmental injustices, and highlights efforts underway to remedy those. The thesis makes two major contributions. First, to dissect water politics in the Ord through the prism of how water matters – from water supply and sanitation, to water allocations for cultural flows. Second, to demonstrate a theoretical means towards this end, by combining political ecology and environmental justice with a Masseyian spatial approach. Water, as a physical substance, makes tangible invisible power relations. To consider this, the thesis marries political ecology, with its focus on how power and politics help shape human-environment relationships, to environmental justice. A politics of difference informs the particular type of environmental justice drawn on here: it asks whether there is recognition of difference, plurality of participation, and equity in distribution of benefits, in environmental matters (Schlosberg, 2004). This nuanced theoretical terrain blends well with a Masseyian spatial approach that acknowledges places as made of ʻloose ends and missing linksʼ (Massey, 2005:12). The latter holds that places are never finished, are always being made, while the former analyses how power relations operate throughout processes. The thesis presents water matters as contested yet crucial to making sense of social- environmental relations; through contextualizing governance transformations and current water dilemmas, the shape of this contestation becomes clear.
