• Ecological status of the Derwent and Huon Estuaries (Nov 2005) – (PDF File 3.2 MB)

    This study was undertaken to fill a significant gap in our understanding of the system ecology of the two main estuaries in southern Tasmania and to provide baseline information to assist in the ongoing management of these systems.

  • Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: assessment of the environmental impacts & sediment remediation potential associated with copper contamination from antifouling paint and associated recommendations for management.

    Farm based monitoring has shown copper concentrations in sediments under salmon farms in the Huon and D’Entrecasteaux Channel are elevated relative to background conditions as a result of long-term use of copper-based antifoulants.
