  • (2000). Wedge-Tailed Shearwaters on Mudjimba Island, Queensland
    Corella, 2000, 24(1/2): 15-18 WEDGE-TAILED SHEARWATERS ON MUDJIMBA ISLAND, QUEENSLAND: NUMBERS AND BREEDING SUCCESS P. K. DYER University of the Sunshine Coast, Sippy Downs Drive, Sippy Downs, Queensland 4556 Received: 26 May 1999 Mudjimba Island has recently been included in the Maroochy River Conservation Park. One of the factors influencing the decision was that the island's Wedge-tailed Shearwater Puffinus pacificus colony may be the only viable colony remaining in south-east Queensland and one of only two colonies that inhabit mainland islands in Queensland. The colony was first described by Lane and Battam (1984, 1985) after they visited the island in February 1984. They estimated a breeding population of between 1 500 and 2 000 breeding pairs. This paper presents an estimate of approximately 2 700 burrows for the 1997/98 season; breeding rates of approximately 37 per cent for the 1996/97 and 1997/98 seasons; and a breeding success rate of about 84 per cent at fledgling stage for the 1997/98 season. INTRODUCTION area of the island, areas used in analyses were taken from the digitised map (Fig. I). The transects represented 11 per cent of the vegetated First described by Lane and Battam (1984, 1985) after area of the island. they visited the island in February 1984 Mudjimba Island On 21 December 1997 data were collected within 4 metres by 10 supported a breeding population of between 1 500 and metres contiguous quadrats along transects of varying length (see Fig. 2 000 breeding pairs.

  • The Attribution of Changes in Streamflow to Climate and Land Use Change for 472 Catchments in the United States and Australia

Schipper Summary Climate change and land use change are ongoing features which affect the hydrological regime by changing the rainfall partitioning into actual evapotranspiration and runoff. A data-based method has been previously developed to attribute changes in streamflow to climate and land use change. Since this method has not been often applied, a large sample attribution study by applying this method to catchments in different parts of the world will provide more insight in the water partitioning and will evaluate the attribution method. The results can be used by water managers of the studied catchments to obtain the main reason for changes in streamflow. The used method is applicable to a large sample set of catchments because it is a relatively fast method and it can provide quantitative results. The objective of this study is to apply a non-modelling attribution method to attribute changes in streamflow to climate change and land use change to a large sample set of catchments in different parts of the world and to evaluate the used method.

  • Extension of Unimpaired Monthly Streamflow Data and Regionalisation of Parameter Values to Estimate Streamflow in Ungauged Catchments
    National Land and Water Resources Audit Theme 1-Water Availability Extension of Unimpaired Monthly Streamflow Data and Regionalisation of Parameter Values to Estimate Streamflow in Ungauged Catchments Centre for Environmental Applied Hydrology The University of Melbourne Murray C. Peel Francis H.S. Chiew Andrew W. Western Thomas A. McMahon July 2000 Summary This project is carried out by the Centre for Environmental Applied Hydrology at the University of Melbourne as part of the National Land and Water Resources Audit Project 1 in Theme 1 (Water Availability). The objectives of the project are to extend unimpaired streamflow data for stations throughout Australia and to relate the model parameters to measurable catchment characteristics. The long time series of streamflow data are important for both research and management of Australia’s hydrological and ecological systems. A simple conceptual daily rainfall-runoff model, SIMHYD, is used to extend the streamflow data. The model estimates streamflow from daily rainfall and areal potential evapotranspiration data. The parameters in the model are first calibrated against the available historical streamflow data. The optimised parameter values are then used to estimate monthly streamflow from 1901-1998. The modelling is carried out on 331 catchments across Australia, most of them located in the more populated and important agricultural areas in eastern and south-east Australia. These catchments are unimpaired, have at least 10 years of streamflow data and catchment areas between 50 km2 and 2000 km2. The model calibration and cross-validation analyses carried out in this project indicate that SIMHYD can estimate monthly streamflow satisfactorily for most of the catchments.

The current edition, published in 1987, retained the same level of national and international acclaim as its predecessors. With nationwide applicability, balancing the varied climates of Australia, the information and the approaches presented in Australian Rainfall and Runoff are essential for policy decisions and projects involving: • infrastructure such as roads, rail, airports, bridges, dams, stormwater and sewer systems; • town planning; • mining; • developing flood management plans for urban and rural communities; • flood warnings and flood emergency management; • operation of regulated river systems; and • estimation of extreme flood levels.
