The Geomorphic Impacts Of Two Weirs On Their Fluvial Systems In The Illawarra Region Of New South Wales, Australia, Adam P. Skorulis
Science, Medicine & Health - Honours Theses
A project aimed at determining the geomorphic impacts of the weirs at Mullet Creek and Macquarie Rivulet was conducted in the Illawarra Region of New South Wales, Australia. Dams are known to cause disruptions to sediment and water flow, with the effects of large impoundment dams on fluvial geomorphology well researched. It has also been previously hypothesised that the weirs in this study may be acting as sediment traps and limiting the sedimentation rate of the deltas where both streams flow in to Lake Illawarra. The removal of small run-of-river dams and weirs has been recently emphasised both locally and …
From Past To Present: Hydrological And Morphological Characteristics Of Wangi Creek, Northern Territory, Aidan B. Soper
From Past To Present: Hydrological And Morphological Characteristics Of Wangi Creek, Northern Territory, Aidan B. Soper
Science, Medicine & Health - Honours Theses
Flooding in the tropical Northern Australia is under researched relative to other regions of the continent yet the entire northern portion of the continent is affected by Australia’s most significant climatic phenomena, the Australian Indo Monsoon. This study of Wangi Creek (13° 09' 49" S, 130° 41' 07" E) in the Litchfield National Park investigates flood dynamics during the 2013-14 wet season. Wangi Falls cascades off an ungauged catchment on the Tabletop Plateau in the Litchfield National Park. The study reach extends from the plunge pool 3.1 km downstream, a key site investigated in previous paleohydrological studies due to the …
