3rd September: Catchment Water Quality Modelling Workshop
This workshop will give an overview of available catchment models to quantify the impact of land management practices on flow and water quality. The main focus of the workshops will be on the application of two widely used models, INCA and SWAT. Formal presentations involving students will be given. These presentations will be followed by discussions on the key issues faced in catchment management and how catchment models could be utilized.
4th September: Invasive Fish Management Workshop
This joint LERNZ-DOC 1-day workshop
will bring together a range of organisations involved in invasive fish
management and research. It will address organisational roles in
management and incursion response, present recent research findings on
the efficacy of different control methods as well as ecological changes
associated with introduced fish species, and describe some human
dimensions associated with coarse fish management and spread. Each
session will be followed by a facilitated discussion to address key
questions arising from the presentations.
