  • 01 Muir-Byenup Hydrology
    #01 Muir-Byenup Hydrology Using empirical data to show the seasonal influence of early winter rainfall change in SW WA and Peel-Harvey Muir ─ Byenup Peter Muirden PHCC Ramsar system February 2020 This presentation is about the research I have undertaken since 2016 into the effects of rainfall change across Australia using actual rainfall and flow data; not modelled or predicted data. The work emphasises how a different presentation of these datasets more clearly shows when ‘step-changes’ in rainfall and flow have occurred at individual sites. For rainfall, these changes have then been congregated and presented spatially to more clearly show changes in rainfall. The relatively simple hydrology at the Muir-Byenup Ramsar System has been selected to show the influence of seasonal variability of rainfall and its resultant driver on streamflow. The presentation then provides describes the far more complex Swan Coastal Plain and Darling Ranges climate and hydrology with a particular emphasis on the Peel Region. 1 Albany Town ─ Annual rainfall 1400 #02 Annual rainfall - Traditional 1300 1200 presentation 1100 1000 (mm) 900 800 Annual rainfall rainfall Annual 700 600 500 400 1870 1880 1890 1900 1910 1920 1930 1940 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 2020 This is the ‘traditional’ presentation of rainfall variability at a site; basically a ‘scatter plot’.

The Setting Few people in Western Australia and fewer still beyond its borders would realize that such an arid State possesses such a vast wealth of wetlands. Only in comparatively recent times have we begun to appreciate the extent of our wetland heritage and its ecological significance. Permanent fresh water lakes are rare in W A, except in the Kimberley and South-West regions where regular heavy rainfall produces high water tables. However, throughout the rest of the State there are many seasonal wetlands and many large salt lakes. All wetlands are important because they are amongst the most productive of all biological systems. They support a vast range of wildlife, both aquatic and terrestrial.

  • Aquatic Invertebrate Assemblages of Wetlands and Rivers in the Wheatbelt Region of Western Australia
    DOI: 10.18195/issn.0313-122x.67.2004.007-037 Records of the Western Australian Museum Supplement No. 67: 7-37 (2004). Aquatic invertebrate assemblages of wetlands and rivers in the wheatbelt region of Western Australia 1 1 A.M. Pinder , S.A. Halset, J.M. McRae and R,J. ShieF 1 Science Division, Department of Conservation and Land Management, p.a. Box 51 Wanneroo, Western Australia 6946, Australia 2 Department of Environmental Biology, University of Adelaide, South Australia 5005, Australia Abstract -A biological survey of wetlands in the Wheatbelt and adjacent coastal areas of south-west Western Australia was undertaken to document the extent and distribution of the region's aquatic invertebrate diversity. Two hundred and thirty samples were collected from 223 wetlands, including freshwater swamps and lakes, salinised wetlands, springs, rivers, artificial wetlands (farm dams and small reservoirs), saline playas and coastal salt lakes between 1997 and 2000. The number of aquatic invertebrates identified from the region has been increased five-fold to almost 1000 species, of which 10% are new and known to date only from the Wheatbelt, and another 7% (mostly rotifers and cladocerans) are recorded in Western Australia for the first time. The survey has provided further evidence of a significant radiation of microcrustaceans in south-west Western Australia. Comparison of the fauna with other regions suggests that saline playas and ephemeral pools on granite outcrop support most of the species likely to be restricted to the Wheatbelt. Most species were collected infrequently, but for many of the least common species the Wheatbelt is likely to be on the periphery of their range.

King 1,* , Mark Quigley 1 and Dan Clark 2 1 School of Earth Sciences, University of Melbourne, Melbourne 3010, Australia; [email protected] 2 Geoscience Australia, Canberra 2609, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 August 2019; Accepted: 16 September 2019; Published: 20 September 2019 Abstract: We digitize surface rupture maps and compile observational data from 67 publications on ten of eleven historical, surface-rupturing earthquakes in Australia in order to analyze the prevailing characteristics of surface ruptures and other environmental effects in this crystalline basement-dominated intraplate environment. The studied earthquakes occurred between 1968 and 2018, and range in moment magnitude (Mw) from 4.7 to 6.6. All earthquakes involved co-seismic reverse faulting (with varying amounts of strike-slip) on single or multiple (1–6) discrete faults of 1 km length that are distinguished by orientation and kinematic criteria. Nine of ten earthquakes ≥ have surface-rupturing fault orientations that align with prevailing linear anomalies in geophysical (gravity and magnetic) data and bedrock structure (foliations and/or quartz veins and/or intrusive boundaries and/or pre-existing faults), indicating strong control of inherited crustal structure on contemporary faulting. Rupture kinematics are consistent with horizontal shortening driven by regional trajectories of horizontal compressive stress. The lack of precision in seismological data prohibits the assessment of whether surface ruptures project to hypocentral locations via contiguous, planar principal slip zones or whether rupture segmentation occurs between seismogenic depths and the surface.

  • Mineral Resources of Western
    MINERAL RESOURCES OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA DEPARTMENT OF MINES PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA 1980 Issued under the authority of the Hon. P. V. Jones, M.L.A. Minister for Mines 89686-1 Since the publication of the last issue of this booklet in 1966 a major expansion of mineral production in Western Australia has been achieved. Deposits of iron, nickel, natural gas, bauxite, heavy mineral sands, uranium and diamond are now being worked or are known to be commercial. Over the period 1966 to 1971, following the initial discovery of nickel sulphide at Kambalda, a speculative boom in base metal exploration developed that could only be likened to the gold rush days around the turn of the century. Although not all of the exploration activity in this period was well directed, many new discoveries were made as a result of the ready availability of risk capital. In the wake of the boom it is mainly the true prospectors that remain-the individual, to whom the still sparsely populated areas of the State hold an irresistible appeal and the chance of rich bonanza, and the established and dedicated mining companies for whom exploration is a necessary and vital part of the minerals industry. 1 am confident that the persistence of these prospectors will be rewarded with yet further discoveries of economic mineral deposits. Western Australia, with an area of over 2.5 million square kilometres, has a wide diversity of rocks representing all geological periods, and vast areas have been incompletely prospected. This booklet presents an up to date account of the minerals that are, or have been, economically exploited in Western Australia.

  • Indicators of Regional Development in Western Australia
    Indicators of Regional Development in Western Australia Prepared by URS Australia Pty Ltd for the Department of Local Government and Regional Development Indicators of Regional Development in WA Page 2 Indicators of Regional Development in WA Foreword The Indicators of Regional Development in WA report has been prepared for the State Government to provide a comprehensive overview of what is happening in regional Western Australia. The report was prepared by consultants URS Australia, under the leadership and direction of the Department of Local Government and Regional Development. Over 100 indicators have been assembled and analysed, covering the three main areas of regional development: economic, social and environmental. The indicators were selected in consultation with each of the nine regions, particularly through the Regional Development Commissions. Much of the information has not been available before in a public document, at least not in the form presented. This fact, together with the sheer breadth and depth of information presented, Page 3 makes this a unique document which will be of interest and importance to residents and organisations throughout the State for years to come. The report will inform regional communities about their region, and how they compare with other parts of the State, particularly Perth. Metropolitan communities will be better informed about regional areas of the State. Individual indicators generally compare the performance of regions with Perth, wherever this is possible. This benchmarking of regions’ status against Perth will be of great assistance to Government in developing policy and making resource allocation decisions. There are many sectors of the report which tell a positive story about the performance of regions compared to Perth.
