Wetlands

Wetlands are important for sustaining the health and resilience of the Great Barrier Reef and provide many benefits to society and the environment. Historical loss of wetland extent has been significant for some wetland types in some regions. Natural and near-natural wetlands, and healthy rivers have the potential to support […]

What is the efficacy of natural/near-natural wetlands, restored, treatment (constructed) wetlands and other treatment systems in Great Barrier Reef catchments in improving water quality (nutrients, fine sediments and pesticides?)

What are the key factors that affect the efficacy of natural/near natural wetlands, restored, treatment (constructed) wetlands and other treatment systems in Great Barrier Reef catchments in improving water quality and how can these be addressed at scale to maximise water quality improvement?)

Wetlands

What are the co-benefits e.g., biodiversity, soil carbon, productivity, climate resilience, of land management to improve water quality outcomes for the Great Barrier Reef?

What are the measured costs, and cost drivers associated with the use of natural/near natural wetlands, restored, treatment (constructed) wetlands and other treatment systems in Great Barrier Reef catchments in improving water quality?
