Salinity and nutrient enrichment are the most significant forms of water quality degradation in Australian lowland rivers. This project will identify the biological effect of the water quality pollution and develop new methods for its assessment. Most importantly, through the identification of water quality "thresholds" which result in reduced biodiversity, better guidelines for maintaining stream health will be developed.

盐度和营养物富集是澳大利亚低地河流水质退化的最重要形式。该项目将确定水质污染的生物效应，并开发新的评估方法。最重要的是，通过确定导致生物多样性减少的水质“阈值”，将制定更好的维持河流健康的指导方针。
