Water and soil resources are critical to Australia's present and future health and wealth. This project provides necessary data to increase our understanding groundwater recharge, flow and quality, weathering rates and uranium behaviour in soil and water. It will help delineate the impacts of agricultural activities and climate change. It may also trigger the development of new mineral exploration strategies for uranium and other commodities.

水和土壤资源对澳大利亚现在和未来的健康和财富至关重要。该项目提供了必要的数据，以增加我们对地下水补给、流动和质量、风化速率以及铀在土壤和水中的行为的了解。它将有助于描述农业活动和气候变化的影响。它还可能引发针对铀和其他大宗商品的新矿产勘探战略的制定。
