Figure 4.1 Steps in Stage One of the River Styles framework STAGE ONE, STEP ONE: Assess regional and catchment setting controls ⇓ STAGE ONE, STEP TWO: Define and map River Styles ⇓ STAGE ONE, STEP THREE: Interpret controls on the character, behaviour and downstream patterns of River Styles In this case study, the following products are presented in separate sections: Stage one, Step One • Regional setting, including landscape units, longitudinal profiles, geology, land use history, flood history etc., and measurement of catchment morphometric parameters. Stage One, Step Two • Catchment-specific River Styles tree. • Catchment-wide map showing the distribution of River Styles. • River Styles proformas, annotated cross sections and geomorphic unit maps and photographs for each River Style. Stage One, Step Three • Summary table of controls for all River Styles. • Longitudinal profile diagrams with associated plots that outline primary controls on each reach for a representative example of each downstream pattern of River Styles. 44 4.2 Stage One, Step One: Bega catchment regional setting 4.2.1 Catchment morphometry and geology Bega catchment is a relatively small coastal catchment located on the South Coast of New South Wales (NSW) (Figure 4.2; Table 4.1). The catchment comprises two hydrologically and geologically distinct river systems, the Brogo to the north, and the Bega-Bemboka to the south. The River Styles framework was applied to 16 subcatchments namely the Bemboka-Bega and Brogo trunk stream systems, Greendale, Frogs Hollow, South Wolumla, Wolumla, Towridgee, Candelo, Reedy, Tantawangalo, Sandy, Colombo, Pollacks Flat, House, Double and Numbugga tributary systems (Figure 4.3).
