Hydrobiology recently attended and sponsored the “QLD Highlights from the 11ASM Conference” event held on 3rd October in Brisbane. The event, organised by RBMS (River Basin Management Society), featured insightful presentations from River Management Industry Practitioners and provided an excellent networking opportunity.
Chamantha Athapaththu from our Land and Water Management Team presented on Headwater Streams Restoration: “Two Creek Systems Are Not the Same!”.
Headwater streams worldwide are increasingly threatened by rapid urbanization. As key upstream sections of river networks, they play a crucial role in catchment health. Protecting these streams is essential for enhancing catchment resilience, particularly with changing climates. Repeating his presentation at the 11th Australian Stream Management Conference, Chamantha highlighted the challenges and solutions in restoring headwater streams.
