Abstract:
In order to provide similar information for comparison, the major aims of Phase, III (Implementation and Management) were to a) initially consult with community groups (e.g. Macquarie 2100) to ensure, research projects developed were consistent with natural research, management issues in each of the major cotton growing areas of central and, northern NSW and southeast Queensland b) generate matching research funds through the Natural Heritage Trust and Salt, Action Programs to extend the field, district and regional methods, developed, as part of Phase II, to other irrigated cotton growing districts (e.g. lower, Macintyre, Macquarie and Darling River valleys) c) collection of EM data, and soil information in the root- (0-2 m) and vadosezones, (2-12 m) to measure, model, map, manage and monitor soil salinisation, processes at various scales
