Erosion management and avoidance in northern Australia

This project used the Gilbert-Einasleigh region of Queensland as a case study to demonstrate how new irrigation developments can be planned and implemented to minimise the threat of developing new alluvial gully erosion or exacerbating existing erosion (both associated with alluvial gullies and stream bank erosion).  The study highlights the need for high resolution soil mapping and landscape analysis prior to development.
