  • Water Quality of the Port River Estuary — a Community Summary
    Water Quality of the Port River Estuary — a community summary Government of South Australia INTRODUCTION In September 1995, the EPA began a long-term program to monitor water quality in the Port River estuary. The estuary consists of the Port River, North Arm, Outer Harbor and the Angas and Barker inlets. It is a biologically diverse aquatic ecosystem, supporting extensive saltmarshes, mangrove stands and seagrass beds. This provides varied habitats for many species of birds, fish, crustaceans, and other marine invertebrates, making the estuary an important natural asset. The EPA collects water samples monthly from nine sites across the estuary, measuring 21 different parameters in five categories—nutrients, water clarity, heavy metals, chlorophyll (algae) and microbiology. Water quality data is categorised as good, moderate or poor using a classification system based on national water quality guidelines. The EPA’s first Port River report summarised data from September 1995 to December 1996 (EPA, 1997a), and found the water quality to be mainly Dept. Environment and Heritage Survey 5573 – Oct 1998 Dept. Environment poor to moderate. Aerial view of the Port River estuary This brochure summarises a new report, Ambient water quality in the Port River estuary September 1995–August 2000. Once again, water quality was shown to be poor to moderate for many parameters—only 51% of classifications were good, 31% were moderate, and 18% were poor. Outer Harbor was the best site, with 71% of the parameters classified as good. The five categories analysed Nutrients High nutrient concentrations can lead to excessive algal and plant growth, causing fish deaths and smothering seagrasses and other plants.

  • History of Trade in South Australia
    History of Trade in South Australia Trade has been happening in South Australia for thousands of years. There have been many changes to the way we trade and exchange goods, and the types of goods that are traded. Advances in technology and the needs of people have driven these changes. The Aboriginal people traded goods amongst themselves and indigenous groups long before European people arrived, and it was vital to their existence. Food was not traded over large distances, but other highly valued and scarce resources were traded. Stones, ochres, tools, ceremonial items and other resources that were not normally available within one area could be obtained through trade from another area. Trade was also seen as a form of social control and law, as it required people from different areas and different groups to respect each other’s rights, boundaries and cultural differences. It helped strengthen relationships between neighbouring Aboriginal groups by providing an opportunity to settle disputes, meet to discuss laws and for sharing gifts of respect. In 1836, nine ships arrived in South Australia bringing 546 European people to this state. The European people lived very different lifestyles to the Aboriginal people, their needs and wants were very different, and changed the ways and types of products that were brought into our state. In the early days of European settlement, ships would come in to the harbour and unload cargo the best that they could. At this time, all goods were imported, with no exports. The harbour was rough and very disorganised and anyone could load / unload cargo along the beaches.
