Sub-catchment snapshots PDF  | Print |

In 2005, Condamine Alliance established an innovative method for assessing and presenting information on the status of resources in the Condamine catchment.

This “snapshot” approach (2005 snapshots shown here, being updated) includes statements summarising available science on the condition and trend of community, salinity, vegetation/biodiversity, land and water resources in the catchment in line with the five themes addressed in the catchment NRM Plan.

Supporting the snapshot is a scorecard developed to assess the condition and trend information available to help highlight areas in the catchment that need targeted investment for specific issues.

The scorecard results for each theme in the NRM Plan are reported as traffic lights in the snapshot: red for sub-catchments requiring significant improvement in resource condition, amber for those requiring improvement, and green for those that are stable or improving.

An overall sub-catchment score is also shown using the traffic light symbols and is a compilation of the relevant theme scores.

Lack of resource condition information was found to be a significant gap during the development of this initial series of snapshots, but highlighting these gaps will enable the Alliance and its partners to target investment in monitoring activities to better understand the state of the catchment and better inform future analyses of catchment condition.
