Modelling Wetland Habitat Availability under Long Term Flow Scenarios

摘要：

　　The ecological viability of mudflat habitats in the Coorong,South Australia,was assessed through modeling spatio-temporal patterns of inundation across three long-term (114 year) flow scenarios.High resolution Digital Elevation Models were used with water level and salinity outputs from a hydrodynamic model of the Coorong to predict temporal frequency of inundation,inundation area through time and under a salinity threshold.Results show greatly reduced habitat availability under a no action scenario and marginally improved availability under the proposed 2800 GL/year scenario,relative to natural pre-European conditions.
