COVID-19:Water is essential for public health
Containing the COVID-19 virus is a global public health challenge. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), frequent and thorough hand washing can help reduce your chances of contracting infectious diseases such as COVID-19. But it is hard to wash your hands if you don’t have access to clean water – and worldwide 780 million […]
Supporting Queensland’s next generation of water modellers
The Queensland Water Modelling Network (QWMN) aims to improve the state’s capacity to model its surface water and groundwater resources and improve the quality of it’s models. Established by the Queensland Government in 2017, the QWMN provides tools, information and collaborative platforms to support best-practice use of water models and the uptake of their results […]
Representing bushfire impacts in Source
eWater’s Source modelling provides a valuable tool to help water and catchment managers predict the impacts of the recent bushfires on river systems and water supplies. Source has a number of rainfall-runoff models which can be directly parameterized to reflect changes to runoff volumes due to forest destruction and regrowth. Source water system models using […]
Bushfire impacts on hydrology
Changes to the quality of runoff Past bushfires have resulted in significant water quality emergencies, for example: contamination of water supply reservoirs in Canberra’s Cotter catchment, leading to disruptions to water supply and the need to construct a new water treatment plant (White I. et al, 2006) a significant fish kill due to near-zero dissolved oxygen levels […]
Post bushfire hydrology
The recent devastating bushfires have left many water supply catchments significantly damaged. Water and catchment managers will be faced with a range of short and long-term impacts on both water quality and volumes of runoff. In this page, we bring together information to support our community work through these challenging times, including: an overview of the […]
