  • Long-Term Movements and Activity Patterns of Platypus on Regulated
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Long‑term movements and activity patterns of platypus on regulated rivers Tahneal Hawke1*, Gilad Bino1, Richard T. Kingsford1, Dion Iervasi2, Kylie Iervasi2 & Matthew D. Taylor1,3 The platypus is a semi‑aquatic mammal, endemic to freshwater habitats of eastern Australia. There are gaps in the understanding of platypus movement behaviour within river systems, including spatial and temporal organization of individuals. We tracked movements of 12 platypuses on the regulated Snowy and Mitta Mitta Rivers for up to 12‑months, the longest continuous tracking of platypus using acoustic telemetry. Platypuses remained relatively localized, occupying 0.73–8.45 km of river over 12 months, consistent with previous tracking studies over shorter periods. Males moved further than females, and larger males had higher cumulative movements, suggesting a possible relationship to metabolic requirements. Platypuses moved greater distances on the Mitta Mitta River, possibly associated with impacts of altered fow regimes to their macroinvertebrate diet. Increased movements and diurnal activity during winter were primarily driven by males, possibly attributable to breeding behaviours, rather than increased costs of winter foraging. Evidence for relatively small movements has implications for declining populations, given areas of localised declines are unlikely to be supplemented by migrating platypuses, especially when dispersal is restricted by dam walls. Understanding platypus movement behaviour is pertinent for their conservation, as water resource development and habitat modifcation continue to reduce connectivity between populations across their distribution. Platypuses (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) occur mainly in creeks and rivers of eastern Australia, with an intro- duced population on Kangaroo Island1. Tey are primarily dependent on rivers and other water bodies, feeding exclusively on freshwater macroinvertebrates2, and using burrows on the water’s edge for resting and nesting3.

  • Chapter 9: Mitta Mitta River Catchment
    9 Mitta Mitta River Catchment Omeo Standard, 2 December 1902 True Tales of the Trout Cod: River Histories of the Murray-Darling Basin 9-1 Tambo Valley. In the early days the rivers and creeks around Omeo were stocked with bream, cod and perch; the streams were so clear and limpid that the fish could be seen in hundreds, disporting themselves in the many huge waterholes, most of which have ceased to exist. Even in the Livingstone Creek, when it was a pretty green-banked stream, is a waterhole which existed just in front of the township, it is recorded that a 13lb cod was once caught, besides numbers of smaller weight. But the advent of the miner changed all this; the streams were rendered turgid and muddy with hundreds of sluice boxes and cradles that were winning the gold from the wash, and the fish were naturally choked in their abundance by the muddy waters in which they had to live. From that time the fish have been decreasing until there are only a few left in the Mitta, the Morass and the upper waters of the Victoria, Cobungra and Wentworth rivers.

  • Chapter 3. Landscape, People and Economy
    Chapter 3. Landscape, people and economy Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning 3. Landscape, people and economy Victoria’s North and Murray Water Resource Plan applies to surface water resources in the Northern Victoria and Victorian Murray water resource plan areas, and groundwater resources in Goulburn-Murray water resource plan area. This chapter provides a brief description of the landscape, people and economic drivers in the water resource plan areas. Working rivers The rivers of this water resource plan area provide many environmental, economic, and social benefits for Victorian communities. Most of northern Victoria’s rivers have been modified from their natural state to varying degrees. These modifications have affected hydrologic regimes, physical form, riparian vegetation, water quality and instream ecology. Under the Basin Plan it is not intended that these rivers and streams be restored to a pre-development state, but that they are managed as ‘working rivers’ with agreed sustainable levels of modification and use and improved ecological values and functions. 3.1 Features of Victorian Murray water resource plan area The Victorian Murray water resource plan area covers a broad range of aquatic environments from the highlands in the far east, to the Mallee region in the far west of the state. There are several full river systems in the water resource plan area, including the Kiewa and Mitta Mitta rivers. Other rivers that begin in different water resource plan areas converge with the River Murray in the Victorian Murray water resource plan area. There are a significant number of wetlands in this area, these wetlands are managed by four catchment management authorities (CMAs): Goulburn Broken, Mallee CMAs, North Central and North East and their respective land managers.

  • Environmental Monitoring of the Mitta Mitta River Associated with the Major Transfer of Water Resources from Dartmouth Reservoir to Hume Reservoir – 2004/05
    JOHNSTONE CENTRE – ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING Report No. 97 Environmental Monitoring of the Mitta Mitta River associated with the major transfer of water resources from Dartmouth Reservoir to Hume Reservoir – 2004/05 Prepared for the Murray-Darling Basin Commission Robyn J. Watts Errol R. Nye Leigh A. Thompson Darren S. Ryder Adrienne Burns Kate Lightfoot Wagga Wagga & Albury October 2005 Environmental Monitoring of the Mitta Mitta River 2004/2005 – Murray-Darling Basin Commission Executive Summary Project background and study design The Johnstone Centre – Environmental Consulting (JC-EC), Charles Sturt University (CSU) was engaged by the Murray-Darling Basin Commission (MDBC) to undertake environmental monitoring of the Mitta Mitta River associated with the planned major transfer of water resources from Dartmouth Reservoir to the Hume Reservoir in 2004/2005. The aim of the project was to evaluate the environmental response to a Cyclic Release Pattern (CRP) that was to be introduced into the transfer of water from Dartmouth Reservoir to Hume Reservoir. Four sites in the Mitta Mitta River, one reference site in the unregulated tributary Snowy Creek, and a control site in the Buffalo River were sampled during this study. Samples were collected on twelve sampling dates. The study design included five sampling events prior to the CRP, three during the CRP, and five after the CRP during a period of constant flow from Dartmouth Reservoir. Water quality, biofilm structure and taxonomic composition and benthic macroinvertebrates indicators were assessed. Water quality indicators were: dissolved organic carbon, particulate organic matter, total suspended solids, chlorophyll-a, temperature, turbidity and conductivity. The following biofilm parameters were assessed: Total, organic and algal biomass (dry weight, ash free dry weight and chlorophyll a respectively), and biofilm algal species composition.
