PREAMBLE The assessment and monitoring of abiotic parameters and biological communities in the evaluation and management of water resources such as estuaries, is now well recognised and commonplace. National (e.g. DWAF 1999) and international directives (e.g. European Union 2000) indicate that there is increasing recognition that such programmes should be based on monitoring of environmental indicators against a baseline condition. In many cases monitoring programmes are only implemented after anthropogenic activities have impacted upon a water resource and the lack of information on the reference state of the system being monitored is often problematic. In such cases, the reference condition could be determined by comparison with a control area (often difficult to locate), hindcasting (requires good previous data), predictive modelling (requires adequate empirical and stochastic models) or expert judgement (subjective and difficult to quantify) (Whitfield & Elliot 2002).
