Abstract:
This paper presents a biogeochemical model of a coastal lagoon intended to be representative of lagoons occurring along the south-east and south-west coasts of Australia. Many of these lagoons are threatened by increased nutrient loads because of land use change, by alterations to their freshwater inflows and by modification to their tidal flushing regimens. The model simulates the biogeochemical response of the lagoon to nutrient (nitrogen) loading and includes nutrient transformation processes in the sediments, as well as in the water column. The paper focuses on the response of primary prod

Abstract:
Physical, chemical and biotic attributes of 16 lakes and ponds in the siliceous dunefields of Cape Flattery, in the humid tropics of Australia, have been investigated. The dune lakes are similar to those of dunefields in south-eastern Queensland, with very low to low conductivity (62-338 �S cm-1), low pH (3.9-6.8), and low to high humic content (gilvin 0.0-31.0 g440 m-1). These lakes are apparently not perched above the local water table. The ionic compositions of all lakes were very similar, with NaCl predominating and with very low concentrations of Mg, Ca, K, and SO4. Bicarbonate was absent

Abstract:
Alternative-states theory commonly applied, for aquatic systems, to shallow lakes that may be dominated alternately by macrophytes and phytoplankton, under clear-water and enriched conditions, respectively, has been used in this study as a basis to define different states that may occur with changes in wetland salinity. Many wetlands of the south-west of Western Australia are threatened by rapidly increasing levels of salinity as well as greater water depths and permanency of water regime. We identified contrasting aquatic vegetation states that were closely associated with different salinitie

Abstract:
Enclosure experiments demonstrated that zooplankton grazing changed the composition of the phytoplankton community in Mt Bold Reservoir. Phytoplankton biomass as measured by chlorophyll a did not change within the enclosures but changed across the experiments in response to zooplankton grazing. The chlorophyll a : phaeophytin a ratio did not reflect zooplankton grazing activity. Phytoplankton species richness and diversity did not change but the frequencies of many individual phytoplankton taxa differed in response to zooplankton grazing. Neither taxonomic identity nor phytoplankton size as me

Abstract:
Although phylogeographic patterns of freshwater decapods elsewhere in Australia are well documented, little is known of the phylogeography and biogeography of the endemic freshwater fauna of south-western Australia. Here, the phylogeographic structure of a freshwater crayfish, Cherax preissii Erichson, 1846, was investigated to determine contemporary and historical patterns of gene flow and to examined evolutionary and biogeographical scenarios. Allozyme and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I mitochondrial DNA data were collected from 15 populations, sampled across the known C. preissii distributi

Abstract:
Gilvin was the main attenuator of photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) in 26 freshwater coastal dune lakes, despite most being only slightly humic (range 0.000-27.866 m-1, median = 1.088 m-1). Most were also non-turbid [range 0.27-3.00 nephelometric turbidity units (NTU), median = 0.77 NTU] and had low concentrations of chlorophyll a (range 0.212-15.869 �g I-1, median = 3.285 �g I-1). Accordingly there was only slight to moderate attenuation of PAR in most lakes, the majority having mean downwelling vertical attenuation coefficients of less than 1.0 m-1.

Abstract:
The physical, chemical and biological characteristics of 65 farm ponds in the Northern Tablelands and Central Western Slopes regions of New South Wales, Australia, were similar to those recorded for Australian ponds in other studies. The strongest single relationship between physico-chemical characteristics and biological characteristics was for high abundance of phytoplankton, low abundance of macrophytes, high turbidity, and high nutrient concentrations in ponds on granitic soil. Variation among the ponds was such that no other relationship was significant. Five groups of ponds were discerne

Abstract:
The consequences of human activities increasing concentrations of atmospheric greenhouse gases are already being felt in marine and terrestrial environments. More energy has been trapped in the global climate system, resulting in warming of land and sea temperatures. About 30% of the extra atmospheric carbon dioxide has been absorbed by the oceans, increasing their acidity. Thermal expansion and some melting of land-based ice have caused sea level to rise. Significant climate changes have now been observed across Australia and its coastal seas. The clearest signal is the warming of air and sea

Murray cod Maccullochella peelii peelii is an iconic freshwater angling species that has suffered declines in abundance and is now listed as a nationally vulnerable species. Despite recognition of the need for biological knowledge to provide future management directions, little is known of its ecology.
