Eyre, Bradley, and Lisa France. "Importance of marine inputs to the sediment and nutrient load of coastal-plain estuaries: a case study of Pumicestone Passage, south-eastern Queensland, Australia." Marine and Freshwater Research 48, no. 4 (1997): 277. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/mf96071.

Abstract:
Sediment and nutrient exchange between Deception Bay and Pumicestone Passage was studied to test the hypothesis that marine input of sediment and associated particulate nutrients may dominate the nutrient loading of coastal-plain estuaries. Estimates suggest that Deception Bay contributes 110–111 ¥ 103 t of sediment and 68–74 t of phosphorus annually to Pumicestone Passage. These yearly transports were 10 times the sediment and two times the phosphorus contributed from the catchment. In contrast, Deception Bay contributed only 100–220 t of nitrogen annually to Pumicestone Passage, or 12–25% of

Abstract:
Pumicestone Passage is a narrow waterway that lies to the north of and adjacent to Moreton Bay, and between mainland Queensland and Bribie Island, Australia. Anecdotal reports have suggested that the Passage is home to dugongs year-round despite winter water temperatures that are known to cause dugongs to migrate elsewhere. To examine the pattern of distribution and abundance of dugongs within the passage on a year-round basis, eight years of sightings data collected by a charter boat operator were examined. Dedicated aerial surveys of the passage were also conducted at two-monthly intervals o

Abstract:
Mathematical models were used to assist in quantifying the impact of changing land use on the recreational waters of Pumicestone Passage. Runoff, washoff, hydrodynamic and water quality models were firstly calibrated and then used to predict levels of dissolved oxygen, total nitrogen, total phosphorus and E.coli in the Passage for two future land development scenarios. The models provided valuable tools for understanding the system response to non-point source pollutant loadings and assessing alternative scenarios. They indicated that planned development to the year 2000 would not result in si

Abstract:
AbstractVance Palmer's The Passage (1930) and Eleanor Dark's Lantana Lane (1959) bracket the period during which the narrow coastal strip north of Brisbane from the Pumicestone Passage to the Noosa River was being transformed economically and culturally into what we know today as the Sunshine Coast. In the 1920s and 1950s respectively, Palmer and Dark participated in changing the region, and as established writers they reflected upon that metamorphosis in literary works that reached a national audience at a time when Brisbane's near north coast was off the beaten track for professional writers

Abstract:
Hidden away at the ends of streets, behind suburban parks and community assets, there remain remnants of the coastal wallum heathlands that once stretched from Caloundra to Noosa, in Queensland, Australia. From late July to September, these areas explode with colour, a springtime wonderland of white wedding bush, delicate ground orchids, the pastels and brilliance of pink boronias, purple irises, and the diverse profusion of yellow bush peas. These gifts of nature are still relatively unknown and unappreciated, with most locals, and Australians at large, having little knowledge of the remarkab

Abstract:
Estuaries can be considered as vital natural resources and are unique ecosystems at the interface between terrestrial and marine environments. The increase of population density centred on these coastal features and associated anthropogenic activities such as trade, industry, agriculture and recreation can adversely affect these sensitive environments. The Pumicestone Passage, located in northern Moreton Bay, Australia, is one such estuarine environment where there are concerns about degradation of water quality resulting from rapid land use change.

This catchment is an example of a low-lying sub-tropical coastal plain including both freshwater and estuarine settings. The main creeks drain into Pumicestone Passage, a large shallow estuary, which is a declared marine habitat and a Ramsar listed wading bird location. The Bells Creek catchment has undergone land-use change from bushland to grazing to pine plantations and is now coming under pressure for urban development. Quaternary age unconsolidated sedime
