Contrasting Sedimentation Rates In Lake Illawarra And St Georges Basin, Two Large Barrier Estuaries On The Southeast Coast Of Australia, Colin Murray-Wallace, Brian Jones, Craig Sloss, H Heijnis, B Brooke

B. G. Jones

Sedimentation rates over the last 100 years within two lagoons on the southeast coast of Australia, Lake Illawarra and St Georges Basin, have been quantified to determine the effects of catchment land use change and native vegetation clearance on infill rates, and spatial variations in the rate at which the estuaries have filled. Both catchments have similar lake and catchment area but have experience different degrees of modification due to land clearing for agriculture practices, urbanisation and industrialisation. Results indicate that in the heavily modified catchment of Lake Illawarra sedimentation rates close to fluvial deltas can be in excess of …
