Title: The Narran Ecosystem project: the response of a terminal wetland system to variable wetting and drying: final report to the Murray-Darling Basin Commission
Author(s): Thoms, Martin; Capon, Samantha; James, Cassandra; Padgham, Mark; Rayburg, Scott
Abstract: This report provides the results of a four-year interdisciplinary scientific study of the Narran Ecosystem. The overall aim of the study was to investigate the ecosystem response of this floodplain wetland complex to flow variations. While focused on the Narran Ecosystem, it was established to also increase our understanding of terminal floodplain-wetlands in the dryland region of Australia and more importantly to allow the prediction of the response of these types of systems to disturbances---both natural and those induced by continued water resource and floodplain development
