The purpose for this project is to update the existing hydrodynamic-microbial models for the Mid-Brisbane River with the latest three-year data from 2020 to 2022. These three years are particularly wet than other years and represent an opportunity to better understand the microbial conditions in the river system during a…
The objective of this project is to develop, complete, and publish a set of best practice guidelines for lake modelling to support Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment and to apply the best practice guidelines to develop a lake model for one reservoir operated by Hunter Water. This objective underpins the water…

The purpose of this project was to develop a Bayesian Network (BN) to model the cause and effects of flow-related hydro-ecological and socio-ecological links within the Peace-Athabasca Delta (PAD). The overarching aim of the BN was to integrate Western scientific methods with Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) to support Environmental flow…
As efforts to restore coastal habitats accelerate, it is critical that investments are targeted to most effectively mitigate and reverse habitat loss and its impacts on biodiversity. One likely but largely overlooked impediment to effective restoration of habitat-forming organisms is failing to explicitly consider non-habitat-forming animals in restoration planning, implementation,…
The purpose of this project is to establish a baseline and perform ongoing automated fish monitoring across estuaries of the Gold Coast. The monitoring results will inform the City of Gold Coast local council and community on the health of estuaries in the Gold Coast.
The purpose of this project is to develop an automated data processing pipeline that can count and detect species travelling in fishways. The fishways are located in Finnish rivers used for hydropower.
This project was part of a CSIRO project aimed to investigate how the contaminants (including microplastics) in biosolid behave when treated with soldier flies . The aim of microplastic testing was to determine the fate of plastic in the larvae process. As plastic can be ingested by larvae this project…
“This project aimed to 1) establish a baseline for the quantity, size, and identity of microplastics in recycled organics outputs derived from feedstocks containing FO, GO, and FOGO. 2) Assess risk of microplastics found in recycled organics derived from feedstocks containing FO, GO and FOGO against human health, ecological health,…
This project aimed to identify the current state of knowledge of nurdle microplastics in aquatic ecosystems abundance, fate and effects.
