The Willows of Bungonia

The Willows of Bungonia. Bungonia, NSW is home to a beautiful stretch of Australian creeks, rivers and wetlands. Bungonia Creek is supported by a grove of willow trees which naturally slow and filter the water. Unlike manmade constructions which speed the water up, fast-tracking erosion and flooding. The willows of Bungonia have kept the landscape hydrated throughout the long drought. But now, ...

    Peter explains the ecology in round about ways. He would benefit by reducing the message to a couple paragraphs such as : slow the water in the channels, then plants will grow and add tilth / top soil that acts like a sponge much better than the eroded subsoil. Spread that soil higher in the watershed so it will act as a larger sponge and slowly release much more water into a positive feed back loop that will bring the land to health via the enhanced soil storing much more water than the current scenarios of depleted soil. I do think he would give grazers/ cattle more credit if their grazing was managed in rotation such as Allan Savory encourages. That gets the cattle themselves to passively move soil uphill.

    Wetland systems are the cornerstone of river ecosystem function and health. The Europeans took the beavers out of the system and drained the wetlands for agriculture and peat moss. The flood and drought scenarios still plague Europe. This approach is not unique to Australia, it's pretty universal. Healthy water courses should flood as many times as possible from the top of the watershed to release energy and deposit sediments in the floodplain.

    The north eastern states can't hog all the water from the south eastern states, but, slowing water travel down is different to dam building. Dams do not reduce evaporation the same way. Laws are usually about the dam building for water intensive agriculture. That's a perspective to come from if changing legislation. Otherwise Queensland can grow cotton and Victoria can't grow fruit.

    • @threeriversforge1997
      @threeriversforge1997 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The first step, if he was here in the US, would be to armor the top edge with rocks layered only one high and spreading back upstream at least two or three, with the smaller pebbles being on the uphill edge to stop the water from piping under the stones and undermining the protection. Then, a "rock rundown" at the base of the waterfalls in order to prevent the water from digging a deep pool. Downstream from there, not too far, we'd install Beaver Dam Analogs to slow the flow and collect silt. The BDA's are identical to what you saw in the video, small dams a foot high that will hold back water and spread it out. You can also use what's called a Media Luna construction if you have more rock than wood. The idea it so slow the flow and spread it out wide so it sheets over the land rather than forming those erosive streams. Where the ground has already given way, all you can do is things like armoring the head cut and building BDA's in the valley so the damage is halted and repairing can begin.

They have the capacity if legislation requires them to do so. EG Australia Defence is managed by ONE government NOT seven. Similarly a Police force could have one set of rules (why do we have 7 sets of road rules in Oz?); health etc, etc! With that in mind and using Peter Andrews as an example we may just get our act together and create a more dynamic country, which is not based on greed. Another eg: Why was one of our Federal Minister's company given millions of dollars (for water licences) which were sent overseas, rather than put into our "system"?
