  • And Sediment Murray-Darling Basin
    Sediment Transfer through the Fluvial System (Proceedings of a symposium held in Moscow, August 2004). IAHS Publ. 288, 2004 245 Patterns of erosion and sediment transport in the Murray-Darling Basin RONALD DE ROSE1, IAN PROSSER2 & MARTIN WEISSE3 1 CSIRO Land and Water, GPO Box 1666, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia [email protected] 2 Land & Water Australia, GPO Box 2182, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia 3 Institute of Geography, Schneiderberg 50, D-30167 Hanover, Germany Abstract The Murray-Darling Basin in the southeast of Australia covers approx. 1 x 106 km2, equivalent to 14% of the country’s total area. Accelerated erosion, primarily in upland regions, has greatly degraded river habitats over the past century. Here we describe the results from the basin-wide sediment modelling for this region using SedNet: a spatially distributed sediment routing model which predicts sediment loads, together with bed, flood plain and reservoir deposition. Comparisons are made between current (past 100 years) and natural (pre-European) conditions. The results demonstrate that the basin is one of sediment redistribution rather than net sediment export. The basin is estimated to have 18% of rivers with >100 times natural loads. Erosion of gullies and riverbanks has also resulted in 11 000 km (13% of the total) to have historical accumulation of over 0.3 m of sand and gravel averaged over the river length. Key words erosion; Murray-Darling Basin, Australia; sediment budget; sediment load; spatial model INTRODUCTION Extensive modification to the natural environment in many parts of Australia began with the arrival of European farmers in the early part of the 19th century.

  • Customer Service Advice from Foxtel
    CUSTOMER SERVICE ADVICE FROM FOXTEL Extreme Weather events impact service in the Northern Tablelands District and parts of the Northern Rivers, Mid North Coast, North West Slopes and Plains Districts of New South Wales and part of the Darling Downs and Granite Belt District of Queensland. As previously notified by Foxtel on Friday 20 January 2017, Foxtel’s normal operations in the Northern Tablelands District and parts of the Northern Rivers, Mid North Coast, North West Slopes and Plains Districts of New South Wales and part of the Darling Downs and Granite Belt District of Queensland were affected by a series of extreme weather events on or about Thursday 12 January 2017 through to Sunday 15 January 2017. The network used to deliver Foxtel’s services in these areas has experienced high levels of damage that resulted in delays to installation and repair activities on a significant number of Foxtel services. Due to the extent of damage to the network used to deliver Foxtel’s telecommunications services, the impact in the effected region has been greater than initially estimated, and as a consequence of the continued weather effects, the expected recovery date has now been extended to 2 April 2017. Foxtel has identified that the effect of these circumstances applies to approximately 465 services. This number may increase as Foxtel assesses the full effect of the severe weather conditions. Based on current information, the resumption date of normal service operations is expected to be 2 April 2017. This date is indicative only, and Foxtel customers should anticipate that some further delays may occur.
