About this report

Experience had led to a much better knowledge of the effects of data quality on the AUSRIVAS models. This project was designed to enable a second iteration of all the state/territory AUSRIVAS models to allow the incorporation of improvements in data quality and reference site selection. In addition, state and territory agencies have now had an opportunity to review existing reference sites and sample new reference sites, requiring the construction of new models. All states and territories were contacted when the project commenced and advised that they had the opportunity to have their models recreated. The first states/territories to supply the Cooperative Research Centre for Freshwater Ecology (CRC FE) a complete set of six data sets were the Australian Capital Territory, Victoria and Tasmania, therefore these states and territories were included in Phase 1 of this project.
