FOREWORD The Coorong and Lakes Alexandrina and Albert Wetland was designated a Wetland of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention in 1985. The wetland is also one of Australia’s most important and unique wetland systems and supports significant ecological, cultural, recreational, heritage and economic values. It is the only estuary within the Murray- Darling Basin and is a designated icon site under The Living Murray initiative. The site supports a vast array of native flora and fauna, including internationally and nationally significant species and communities. From late 1996 to mid-2010 much of southern Australia, including the Coorong and Lakes region, experienced a prolonged period of dry conditions — the Millennium Drought. This had a devastating impact on the ecology of the Coorong and Lakes and on the wellbeing of our local communities, including the Ngarrindjeri people. While we are still seeing long-lasting ill effects, particularly within the southern lagoon of the Coorong, the drought brought the plight of the River Murray to the national agenda and helped to highlight the importance of end-of-system flows and water for the environment. The adoption of the Murray-Darling Basin Plan, and corresponding recovery and delivery of water for the environment, have resulted in improvements to the ecology of the Coorong and Lakes Alexandrina and Albert. While many improvements are evident, some aspects of the ecology have experienced sustained change, most notably submergent vegetation communities in the Coorong and some waterbirds, particularly migratory shorebirds, which have not yet recovered to pre-drought levels. Providing the leadership that is required to protect, sustain and revitalise the Coorong is a personal quest which I am determined to advance during my time as South Australia’s Minister for Environment and Water. I would like to acknowledge the dedication of South Australia’s scientific community, the members of whom are tireless advocates for this wetland. The long-term data that have been collected by these people and groups have been instrumental in our negotiations to secure water for the environment and in delivering on-ground works to protect the Coorong and Lakes Alexandrina and Albert. The South Australian Government is committed to using the best scientific, cultural and local knowledge to manage this important wetland. I commend the Royal Society of South Australia for its work to collate decades of monitoring and research data into this important publication on South Australia’s most iconic estuary. David Speirs MP Minister for Environment and Water (September 2018) DEDICATION This book is dedicated to Tom Trevorrow and Henry Jones. Thomas Edwin Trevorrow (1954-2013) was renowned and respected for his lifelong commitment to the health of his beloved Ruwe/Ruwar (Country, spirt, body and all living things). Trained by his people as an educator and political leader, he worked closely with Ngarrindjeri and non-Ngarrindjeri to create a healthy future for all, based on respect for the lands, water and all living things. He qualified as a park ranger, but chose instead to work tirelessly for his people across many Ngarrindjeri organisations and committees, including the Ngarrindjeri Regional Authority. As a gifted orator, an educator at Camp Coorong, and a Ngarrindjeri leader, he ensured that the knowledge of his ancestors was valued, understood and respected. This led to the widespread incorporation of Ngarrindjeri understandings of Murrundi (River Murray) and the Lower Lakes and Kurangk (the Coorong) in natural resource management policy and practice. With other Ngarrindjeri leaders, such as George Trevorrow and Matthew Rigney, he negotiated groundbreaking agreements (Kungun Ngarrindjeri Yunnan — listen to Ngarrindjeri people) with non-Indigenous organisations and governments and these have provided the framework for just relationships and a sustainable Coorong, Lower Lakes and Murray Mouth. Henry Jones (1941-2014) was a fourth-generation fisherman in the Lower Lakes and Coorong and, together with his wife Gloria, a passionate and highly successful advocate for protection of this region. Henry witnessed how declining river flows over many decades had led to poor health of the local environment and fisheries. He became arguably the most influential community person pushing for the implementation of a national plan to save both the environment of the Murray-Darling Basin and, through that, the livelihoods of thousands of people who rely on it. His emotional plea for national reform to save the ailing system, on the lawns of Parliament House (accompanied by his tinnie and barbeque, whilst cooking fish) in Canberra in March 2012, was so powerful that it was credited by politicians of all persuasions as a game-changer in the long fight for River Murray reform. Henry was humble and quietly spoken, but his influence was so great that he was the first person who was called when then Federal Water Minister Tony Burke signed the historic Murray-Darling Basin agreement in November 2012; and he was invited to be present in Parliament with Gloria when the Basin Plan was passed into law in 2013. His numerous other achievements included helping shape a world-first environmental management plan for the fisheries as a whole in the Lower Lakes and Coorong and helping the local fishing community to achieve a Marine Stewardship Council Certification for sustainable fishing practices. Henry was a finalist in the South Australia Senior Australian of the Year Award 2014 for his work in water conservation. His lifelong dedication and fight for protecting the River Murray was recognised in 2013, when he became the first member of the community to receive the River Murray Medal from the Murray-Darling Basin Authority. In 2015, Henry was also posthumously appointed a member of the Order of Australia (AM) for significant service to the conservation of the Lower Murray River and to the community.

    Report to Country Arts SA, Australia Council, Arts SA and Alexandrina Council Just Add Water Evaluation 2012 – 2014 Greg Hatcher, GastroSkeletal, from Contemperate Ephemeral Sculpture Trail, Middleton 2014. Photo: Meg Winen Christine Putland – Research Consultant April 2015 About This Report In 2012 the Alexandrina Council hosted the third Regional Centre of Culture (RCC) program in South Australia, the previous two having been held in Port Augusta (2008) and Murray Bridge (2010). Managed by Country Arts SA on behalf of the South Australian government, the RCC model aimed to contribute to building a strong and resourceful community and improving wellbeing through arts and cultural development. In Alexandrina the program was named Just Add Water, reflecting the community’s unique and precious relationship with the rivers, lakes, sea and wetlands in the region. Country Arts SA commissioned an independent evaluation of the 2012 program documenting the many positive outcomes for the community. The 2012 Evaluation Report by Dr Christine Putland can be found on the website here. Based on the success of Just Add Water in 2012 it was nominated for a further two years funding by the Australia Council for the Arts, Cultural Places Initiative as one of two pilots, the other being Rockhampton in Queensland. A further evaluation of Just Add Water until the end of 2014 was undertaken to ascertain progress towards the goals of the Cultural Places Initiative. This Report supplements the 2012 findings and is based on the evaluation conducted during 2014 by Dr Christine Putland.

  • 1 Australian Tidal Currents – Assessment of a Barotropic Model
    https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-2021-51 Preprint. Discussion started: 14 April 2021 c Author(s) 2021. CC BY 4.0 License. Australian tidal currents – assessment of a barotropic model (COMPAS v1.3.0 rev6631) with an unstructured grid. David A. Griffin1, Mike Herzfeld1, Mark Hemer1 and Darren Engwirda2 1Oceans and Atmosphere, CSIRO, Hobart, TAS 7000, Australia 2Center for Climate Systems Research, Columbia University, New York City, NY, USA and NASA Goddard Institute for 5 Space Studies, New York City, NY, USA Correspondence to: David Griffin ([email protected]) Abstract. While the variations of tidal range are large and fairly well known across Australia (less than 1 m near Perth but more than 14 m in King Sound), the properties of the tidal currents are not. We describe a new regional model of Australian 10 tides and assess it against a validation dataset comprising tidal height and velocity constituents at 615 tide gauge sites and 95 current meter sites. The model is a barotropic implementation of COMPAS, an unstructured-grid primitive-equation model that is forced at the open boundaries by TPXO9v1. The Mean Absolute value of the Error (MAE) of the modelled M2 height amplitude is 8.8 cm, or 12 % of the 73 cm mean observed amplitude. The MAE of phase (10°), however, is significant, so the M2 Mean Magnitude of Vector Error (MMVE, 18.2 cm) is significantly greater. The Root Sum Square over the 8 major 15 constituents is 26% of the observed amplitude.. We conclude that while the model has skill at height in all regions, there is definitely room for improvement (especially at some specific locations).

  • Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site PLACE NO.: 26454
    South Australian HERITAGE COUNCIL SUMMARY OF STATE HERITAGE PLACE REGISTER ENTRY Entry in the South Australian Heritage Register in accordance with the Heritage Places Act 1993 NAME: Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site PLACE NO.: 26454 ADDRESS: Franklin Parade, Encounter Bay, SA 5211 Uncovered well 23 November 2017 Site works complete June 2019 Source DEW Source DEW Cultural Safety Warning Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples should be aware that this document may contain images or names of people who have since passed away. STATEMENT OF HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE The Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site is on the lands and waters of the Ramindjeri people of the lower Fleurieu Peninsula, who are a part of the Ngarrindjeri Nation. The site represents a once significant early industry that no longer exists in South Australia. Founded by the South Australian Company in 1837 and continually operating until 1851, it was the longest-running whaling station in the State. It played an important role in the establishment of the whaling industry in South Australia as a prototype for other whaling stations and made a notable contribution to the fledgling colony’s economic development. The Rosetta Head Whaling Station is also an important contact site between European colonists and the Ramindjeri people. To Ramindjeri people, the whale is known as Kondli (a spiritual being), and due to their connection and knowledge, a number of Ramindjeri were employed at the station as labourers and boat crews. Therefore, Rosetta Head is one of the first places in South Australia where European and Aboriginal people worked side by side.

  • A Large Mid-Holocene Estuary Was Not Present in the Lower River Murray
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A large mid‑Holocene estuary MATTERS ARISING was not present in the lower River Murray, Australia J. Tibby 1,2,6*, B. Bourman1,3,4, C. Wilson 5,6, L. M.

Helfensdorfer et al.; Scientifc Reports https://​doi.​org/​10.​1038/​s41598-​019-​39516-4​(2019). arising from: A. M. Helfensdorfer et al.; Scientifc Reports https://​doi.​org/​10.​1038/​s41598-​020-​61800-x​(2020). Recent research has suggested that during the mid-Holocene (c. 8500 to 5000 cal yr BP) a large estuary occupied the lower River Murray and its terminal lakes (Lakes Alexandrina and Albert: herein the Lower Lakes) in South Australia. Tis research has questioned both reconstructions of past River Murray discharge and contemporary environmental water provisions aimed at maintaining the freshwater state of the Lower Lakes. We show that (1) a large mid-Holocene estuary extending into the lower River Murray was not physically possible, and (2) that the River Murray and Lower Lakes were predominantly fresh during the mid-Holocene. Sea level was well below present at the time of purported initiation of estuarine sedimentation and, therefore, could not have allowed formation of an estuary. Holocene human occupation of the lower River Murray valley, that was reliant on freshwater resources, negates the existence of a large estuary in the valley. A variety of freshwater indicators in sediments from in, and around, the Lower Lakes negate the notion of signifcant marine incursion.
