Data Versus Desktop: an Assessment of the Severity of Cold Water Pollution in the Swampy Plains and Murray Rivers Below Khancoban Dam Pope E1 and Nolan A2
Full Paper Pope and Nolan – An assessment of the severity of Cold Water Pollution below Khancoban Dam Data versus Desktop: An assessment of the severity of Cold Water Pollution in the Swampy Plains and Murray Rivers below Khancoban Dam Pope E1 and Nolan A2 1. Snowy Hydro Limited, Cooma NSW 2630. Email: [email protected] 2. Snowy Hydro Limited, Cooma NSW 2630. Email: [email protected] Key Points Cold Water Pollution occurs downstream of Khancoban Dam but effects are not as severe or persistent as expected on the basis of the original desktop study Summer suppression is evident but winter elevation, annual amplitude reduction, seasonal displacement and impacts to diel variation are very minor Causes of cold water releases appear to be a combination of reservoir stratification and releases from Murray 2 Power station with releases from the power station being the dominant cause The presence of Khancoban Reservoir appears to be having a minor impact on the percentage of time that breeding temperature thresholds are exceeded during the breeding seasons of a number of native fish expected to occur in the Swampy Plains and Murray Rivers. Abstract In 2004, Khancoban Dam was listed as one of 9 Dams in NSW considered to cause severe cold water pollution on the basis of a desktop study. This study, based on 5 years of field data, demonstrates that cold water releases do occur from Khancoban but that these events are not as severe or prolonged as expected. On average, there is a difference in temperature of only -2.2°C between monitoring points upstream and downstream of Khancoban Dam during summer. -
'Geo-Log' 2012
‘Geo-Log’ 2012 Journal of the Amateur Geological Society of the Hunter Valley ‘Geo-Log’ 2012 Journal of the Amateur Geological Society of the Hunter Valley Inc. Contents: President’s Introduction 2 Australian Alps Safari 3 New Hartley Excursion 20 Redhead Bluff: Stratigraphy and Paleoenvironment 29 Varved Shale in the Seaham and Raymond Terrace Area 33 Coolah Tops NP Weekend 37 Some Regional Geology of the Eyre Peninsula, South Australia: Geological Safari 2012 43 Geo-Log 2012 - Page 1 President’s Introduction. Hello members and friends, Yet again we have enjoyed a very successful year. Although the Society has been running for over 30 years, our membership has remained stable and has even increased slightly in recent years, reflecting a continuing enthusiasm for and appreciation of the earth sciences and related activities. A background in geology is not a prerequisite to membership and every member is strongly encouraged to take part regardless of their level of knowledge. Although the initial aim of the Society was the exploration and understanding of Hunter Valley geolo- gy, for several years now we have continued to widen our coverage well beyond the confines of the Valley. Even so, while the organizing committee tries to include new activities into the program each year, this is becoming more difficult. But new members bring new ideas and new experiences which everyone can benefit from. Occasionally old sites are revisited, either for the benefit of new members or where the availability of new information has allowed a greater understanding of earth history. Our first extended excursion was organized (with some trepidation) into the Flinders Ranges in 1995, but this was so successful that similar trips have since taken place annually. -

Gobush March 2015
GO BUSH MARCH 2015 BENDIGO BUSHWALKING AND OUTDOOR CLUB INC President’s message for March Seven Committee members met at my place on March 17. In summary: • The new BBOC Logos, winch will be free to club members, are still coming soon. • Check out our continually improving website at http://gobush.org.au. • We're still developing a 'Leader's Pack', for inclusion in our website. This will be a great help to any member considering leading an activity; and we do need more leaders. • We reckon that Bushwalking Victoria's document on Safety and Risk Management will probably do us and we will have a link on the website to it. We recommend that all members study it; for most it will be common sense but there will be some new ideas that we should all know about. • We are going to make more use of Dropbox to store photos, reports etc, which will provide us with permanent backup of these. Garry is working on this. • Our meeting place, Sacred Heart Hall, will be demolished soon, so we are looking for a new inspiring venue. Kerrie (Norris) and Maggie are looking at three possibilities. If you have any ideas on a venue, let them know; their phone numbers are below. • The March meeting will feature Reece Tehan talking on his experiences as a volunteer for ten years helping the East Timorese get back on their feet. Come and hear how this new nation is recovering after 30 years of Indonesian persecution and Australian neglect. • Check out the Activities Calendar in this newsletter. -
