Abstract:
Although medusae of the scyphozoan Phyllorhiza punctata are abundant in the Swan-Canning estuary during summer, they are absent when surface waters are dominated by low-salinity runoff water following winter rains. In the laboratory, scyphistomae of P. punctata are shown to survive in conditions of temperature and salinity that occur in the estuary during winter in waters deeper than 5 m. It is postulated that areas of deep water provide a winter refuge for scyphistomae and that asexual production of both ciliary buds and ephyrae enables rapid growth of the P. punctata population in the spring

Abstract:
In February 2000 the Swan-Canning estuary in Western Australia experienced a record bloom of the toxic cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa. At its height, concentrations of M. aeruginosa reached integrated water column cell counts of 15,000/ml and formed bright green scums in sheltered bays, where counts of 130 million cells/ml were recorded. Due to public health concerns parts of the river were closed from 10 to 22 February 2000. Two unseasonably large summer rain events in early and late January 2000 created conditions for the bloom. Freshwater runoff, estimated at 270 GL, was enough to fil

Abstract:
Artificial oxygenation has been used for two summer periods to improve the water quality of the Canning River in Perth, Western Australia. The project is part of the Swan Canning Cleanup Program, which aims to reduce the frequency and severity of nuisance and toxic algal blooms in the Swan-Canning estuary. The trials have proved that oxygenation has increased the dissolved oxygen concentrations in the water column, particularly in the bottom waters where dissolved oxygen concentrations are frequently below a critical level of three milligrams per litre. Oxygenation has had a positive impact on

Abstract:
Large extents of shellfish reefs have become degraded around the world as a result of anthropogenic activities to the point where such reefs are functionally extinct in some regions. Due to the ecosystem services provided by these biogenic habitats, there has recently been a concerted effort to restore shellfish reefs, particularly in Australia. While oysters have traditionally been used as a candidate species, the Mediterranean Mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis is gaining popularity and provides a similar suite of ecosystem services to oysters. As part of a pilot program, shellfish habitats, e

Benthic macroalgal assemblages and physico-chemical regimes were monitored in the SCES, to determine temporal and spatial changes in macroalgal communities and the influence of environmental factors in these changes.

Abstract:
Non-indigenous species can have significant deleterious impacts on the ecosystems in which they become established. Following the recent establishment of the Striped Sandgoby Acentrogobius pflaumii in the Swan-Canning Estuary, south-western Australia, a study was initiated to determine its spatial and temporal distribution and biological characteristics. Although A. pflaumii was not recorded in the coarse sandy sediment present in the nearshore, shallow waters of the estuary, substantial numbers were recorded on soft muddy sediments in the deeper waters, where it comprised 55% of the total num

The following four broad aims were addressed in this study. (1) To ascertain whether the characteristics of the benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages within the different nearshore marine habitat types identified by Valesini et al. (2003) on the lower west coast of Australia differ significantly, and whether the pattern of those spatial differences matches those among the environmental characteristics that were used to distinguish those habitat types; (2) To develop a quantitative approach for classifying nearshore habitats in estuarine waters that employs readily-available data for a range of

Abstract:
Deoxygenation events within the Swan-Canning Estuary are a severe and potentially lethal threat to the resident aquatic fauna and an ongoing concern for management. Hypoxic conditions develop in the upper estuary following heavy rainfall events that deliver an influx of freshwater into the system, stratifying the water column. When tidally driven seawater and freshwater discharge meet, haloclines are formed, creating a barrier to vertical mixing. Organisms living within the stratified bottom waters can rapidly deplete oxygen reserves, eventually causing the lower layers to become hypoxic. The
