Recharge in a Changing Climate
The Recharge In a Changing Climate Project is a collaboration between scientists from the Department of Environmental Regulation (DWER) and researchers from the University of Western Australia (UWA).
The project aims to monitor and analyse recharge processes, to better understand how climate and land-cover change can impact recharge. We will use these findings to develop a better understanding of recharge and recharge processes in a drying climate, which is important to effectively manage our groundwater resources that have competing demands from water users and the environment.
The Recharge In a Changing Climate project is funded by the State Groundwater Investigation Program.

    I think it is misleading to say there are no driving emissions when there are charging emissions. These (charging - not driving) emissions can be higher than good internal combustion engine vehicle, and usually higher than an equivalent hybrid as the GHG intensity of the WA grid is high relative to say Norway where EVs make sense. Even if you use solar to charge your vehicle the electricity you don't export will be replaced by gas. The GHG intensity of making an EV is also much higher which is difficult to recover. The solution is V2G so the GHG intensity of the grid can be economically reduced so there will be a benefit. Search Arena, Green Vehicle guide and AEMO.

      How long the water takes to reach equilibrium with the ocean depends on several factors including rainfall (which influences how much river flow continues to enter the estuary). In 2023 it took approximately two weeks for the inlet and ocean to reach equilibrium.

      The sandbar is opened to prevent flooding of low-lying land. If the sandbar is not opened then private and public land, including several roads, could be underwater. The inlet has been opened in this way for more than 100 years and many aspects of the inlet’s ecology (like fish, seagrass and birds) now rely on regular openings of the sandbar.

    I've seen many videos on You Tube showing the opening of this sand bar practically every year. What I wonder, is why the waste of time, effort, and energy to dig a channel 100 yards into the estuary? If you just dig out the sand bar from the estuary to the ocean, the flow will erode a natural channel. As it is, the outgoing flow basically ignores the channel that has been dug and erodes away the rest of the sand bar and the channels that were dug. Lot of extra effort put in that nature does for free.

    • @Graham_Langley
      @Graham_Langley ปีที่แล้ว

      Simple enough I'd have thought. The freshwater channel has to be dug back into deep water to ensure there's enough flow to scour a channel. Not far enough and it'll stall as the level drops.

    • @donandersonjr.5086
      @donandersonjr.5086 ปีที่แล้ว

      The sand bar forms over the year. It creates a dam that prevents the river from draining to the sea. If you see how much area is flooded at the start of the video and how many feet it drops at the end of the video. There is a copse of woods that you can barely see the tops of the trees and shrubs. At the end of the video you can see the shore of this little delta island.
