What is the spatial and temporal distribution of nutrients and associated indicators within the Great Barrier Reef?
What is the variability of nutrients in coastal and marine areas of the Great Barrier Reef? [Q4.1.1]
What is the effectiveness of gully and streambank restoration works in reducing sediment and particulate nutrient loss from the Great Barrier Reef catchments, does this vary spatially or in different climatic conditions? What are the costs and cost-effectiveness of these works, and does this vary spatially or in different climatic conditions? What are the production outcomes of these practices?
What is the benefit of vegetation restoration in 1) riparian zones and 2) hillslope and floodplain zones, in reducing sediment and particulate nutrient loss to the Great Barrier Reef? [Q3.6.1]
How do water quality and climate change interact to influence the health and resilience of Great Barrier Reef ecosystems?
How are the combined impacts of multiple stressors (including water quality) affecting the health and resilience of Great Barrier Reef coastal and inshore ecosystems? [Q2.4.1] Would improved water quality help ecosystems cope with multiple stressors including climate change impacts, and if so, in what way? [Q2.4.2]
What are the current and predicted impacts of climate change on Great Barrier Reef ecosystems (including spatial and temporal distribution of impacts)?
How is climate change currently influencing water quality in coastal and marine areas of the Great Barrier Reef, and how is this predicted to change over time? [Q2.2.1]
