Groundwater-Surface Water Interaction Flux

Surface-groundwater interactions were mapped as part of the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) Sustainable Yields Project. This mapping represents a snapshot in time of fluxes to or from major rivers across the Murray-Darling Basin. The regions where connectivity mapping was conducted were: Loddon-Avoca, Campaspe, Goulburn-Broken, Ovens, Murray, Murrumbidgee, Lachlan, Macquarie-Castlereagh, Namoi, Gwydir, Border Rivers, Condamine-Balonne and Barwon-Darling. This dataset includes the qualitative mapped results of the rivers within Victoria and indicates where river reaches are gaining/losing/seasonally varying in nature. An overview report that describes the method used to undertake the surface-groundwater interaction mapping can be found at http://www.clw.csiro.au/publications/waterforahealthycountry/mdbsy/technical/R-SW-GW-Connectivity.pdf.
