The waterways of South East Queensland, Australia, represent unique and complex ecosystems that have a high conservation value and support major recreational and commercial fisheries. The agricultural districts of the region also contribute significantly to the regional economy and, together with the growing urban areas, are heavily reliant on good...
The Moreton Bay Waterways and Catchments Partnership, now branded the Healthy Waterways Partnership, has built on the experience
of the past 15 years here in South East Queensland (SEQ). It focuses on water quality and the ecosystem health of our freshwater,
estuarine and marine systems through the implementation of actions by individual partners a...

... In Australia, biological assessment has been focused primarily on macroinvertebrates, with programs such as the Australian River Assessment System (AUSRIVAS) (Davies et al., 2000) and the Ecosystem Health Monitoring Program (Abal et al., 2006) of South East Queensland Healthy Waterways Partnership. Diatoms have been under-utilised in Australia (Reid et al., 1995), and it has been suggested that this is possibly due to a lack of metrics, diatom expertise, indices and taxonomic keys, specific to regional or catchment scale (Chessman et al., 2007). ...

... This is particularly important given the recent expenditure for water quality and the continued decline of a number of waterways. In SEQ, approximately $400 million has recently been spent on wastewater treatment plant upgrades, $60 million for stormwater quality improvements and $18 million for waterway management and restoration (Bunn, Abal et al., 2008). A review of pollution abatement cost-effectiveness can inform targets and policy for the future direction for pollution control. ...
... In addition, the Victorian Environmental Flows Monitoring and Assessment Program (DWELP, [308]) and Wetland Monitoring Assessment Program [309] report on environmental flows (e-flows) using measurements of fish, riparian vegetation, birds and frogs, also with contribution of citizens. In south-eastern Queensland, since 2000, the Ecosystem Health Monitoring Program provides an annual report on the health of waterways using water quality, fish, macroinvertebrates, and riparian vegetation [310]. In the Australian Capital Territory, the citizen led WaterWatch Catchment Health Indicator Program (http://www.act.waterwatch.org.au/chip.html) ...
