Inshore reef health - nutrient, sediment and pesticide loads

Prange et al., 2007:

Inshore waters

Regional minimum, maximum and mean nitrogen, phosphorus and suspended sediment concentrations at inshore reef locations during the 2005/06 wet season

 inshore nutrients

 

Minimum, maximum and median chlorophyll a concentrations at inner and outer sites in each of the NRM regions from the 2004/05 dry season and 2005/06 wet seasons

inshore chlorophyll

Regional minimum, maximum and average pesticides concentrations (and compound distribution) of total detected pesticides at inshore reef sites

 inshore pesticides
