Large-scale seagrass dieback in northern Spencer Gulf, South Australia
A major dieback of seagrass occurred in South Australia where 12,717 ha of intertidal and shallow subtidal seagrasses were lost along the north eastern coast of Spencer Gulf. This was a rapid decline, occurring toward the end of summer in January or early February of 1993. The extent and location of the dieback was mapped from aerial photographs taken before (1987) and after the event (1994). E...
متن کاملHindcasts of the fate of desalination brine in large inverse estuaries: Spencer Gulf and Gulf St. Vincent, South Australia
Two major reverse osmosis seawater desalination plants are planned for construction in Spencer Gulf and Gulf St. Vincent, South Australia. A state-of-the-art and carefully calibrated hydrodynamic model (COHERENS) is employed to predict the fate of desalination brine in these sheltered inverse estuaries. In this study, we assume that the brine discharged has a salinity being twice that of ambien...

متن کاملDevelopment of a spatial Decision Support System (DSS) for the Spencer Gulf penaeid prawn fishery, South Australia
The Spencer Gulf penaeid prawn fishery in South Australia has undergone a substantial increase in fishing efficiency (and profitability) mainly due to the implementation of adaptive harvest strategies requiring rapid response for change to harvesting plans. This paper describes the management background and the decision-making process leading to the development of a basic Decision Support Syste...
متن کاملApparent climatically induced increase of tree mortality rates in a temperate forest.
We provide a first detailed analysis of long-term, annual-resolution demographic trends in a temperate forest. After tracking the fates of 21,338 trees in a network of old-growth forest plots in the Sierra Nevada of California, we found that mortality rate, but not the recruitment rate, increased significantly over the 22 years of measurement (1983-2004). Mortality rates increased in both of tw...
