Abstract:
A transect-based quadrat survey was conducted within 11 spring wetlands fed by permanent groundwater flows from the Great Artesian Basin at Elizabeth Springs in western Queensland. Flow patterns within individual wetlands change with sedimentation associated with mound building, siltation of abandoned drains and changes in aquifer pressure associated with artificial extraction from bores. The pattern of floristic groups for the wetland quadrats was poorly related to soil texture, water pH, slope and topographic position. Patterns were most clearly related to wetland age as determined from aerial photography, with a clear successional sequence from mono-specific stands of Cyperus laevigatus on newly formed wetland areas to more diverse wetland assemblages. However, evidence from other Great Artesian Basin springs suggests that succession can also result in reduced species richness where the palatable tall reed Phragmites australis develops mono-specific stands.

Abstract:
Discrete phreatophytic vegetation associated with organic mound springs is present in several places in the semi-arid Walyarta Conservation Park (Park) in northern Western Australia. The mound springs are heritage listed, having significant cultural and environmental significance. Increased industrial (mining and agriculture) development in the region, coupled with a growing demand for groundwater to support these developments, requires an enhanced understanding of how the springs operate and the source of water that sustains their presence. The springs are broadly believed to be situated on geological faults and receive groundwater from artesian sources. However, their association with deeper geological structures and aquifer systems, the focus of this study, is not well understood. This study employed regional- and finer-scale airborne geophysical data, including electromagnetics (AEM) and magnetics, to constrain the sub-basin-scale hydrogeology of the West Canning Basin in Western Australia and to detail tectonic deformation, sedimentological and hydrological processes. The AEM data were inverted using 1- and 2D methods to better define structural discontinuities in the Park, and the results identified the location of faults and other geological structures that were coincident with spring locations. A complementary analysis of spatiotemporal patterns of green vegetation was undertaken using remote sensing data. A model for the extent of green vegetation (in percent), calculated using a constrained linear spectral unmixing algorithm and applied to a select Landsat Thematic Mapper ™ image archive, showed the persistence of green vegetation aligned with interpreted fault systems through extended dry periods. These geophysical and remotely sensed datasets demonstrate that in the Park, the sedimentary aquifers and landscapes are highly compartmentalized and that this constrains aquifer distribution, groundwater quality and the location of wetlands and phreatophytic vegetation. Integrating key information from these datasets allows for the construction of a three-dimensional model that predicts the nature and extent of the critical zone which sustains perennial groundwater discharge within mound springs, drainages and wetlands and provides a framework to assess discharge rates, mixing and, ultimately, sensitivity to changed water availability.

Abstract:
The Great Artesian Basin (GAB) underlies a vast, mainly arid, region where most of the indigenous biota are not dependent upon surface water. In contrast, an important minority is dependent on refuges such as mound springs and their associated wetlands. In some parts of the GAB, such as western New South Wales, many springs have either ceased to flow, or are now barely detectable, because the proliferation of artesian waterbores has reduced groundwater pressures. Because of the rarity of species endemic to mound springs, and the damage they have suffered since pastoral settlement, emphasis should be directed towards conservation and possible rejuvenation of these ecosystems. Provision of artificial sources of water allows more widespread grazing by livestock, larger native and feral herbivores, thereby posing threats to native plants and animals that do not use the water. Because of the proliferation of artificial waters and the grazing they allow, terrestrial grazing-sensitive species now appear to be confined to tiny patches in the landscape. Some nature reserves within the GAB retain numerous artificial sources of water. Most of these should be closed over time to reduce negative impacts on grazing-sensitive plants and animals, especially where these species are inadequately protected elsewhere. In those regions where the ratio of artificial to natural waters is still low, consideration should be given to balancing provision of water for livestock with conservation of biological diversity, by maintaining a patchwork of areas remote from water. In regions where the density of artificial waters is high, conservation of biodiversity on freehold and leasehold lands might be enhanced with a mix of approaches accommodating the needs of the biota and the aspirations of landholders, tailored according to land type and condition. Key words: Great Artesian Basin, biological diversity, mound springs, refuges, rare biota, grazing impact, conservation management, groundwater.

The importance of groundwater to remote and regional Australia cannot be understated, due to the intermittent and unreliable rainfall in these areas, as well as the unreliability of other water sources. As such the major source of water is groundwater from the Great Artesian Basin (GAB). The natural discharge of the GAB is through mound springs, unique landforms comprised of precipitated carbonates that are primarily located along the south western edge of the GAB. Due to the cultural, economic and environmental significance of these features it is important to fully understand their underlying hydrogeological structure. Geophysical studies have the potential to provide non-invasive imaging of these specific aspects of the GAB. A number of different methods were used to collect data from the springs. For this particular study a set of shallow electromagnetic data was collected. These data were processed conventionally, however to provide additional information they were also processed to extract the fractal dimension information of the data. The fractal dimension is used here as an indicator of roughness or texture with a dataset, thus differentiating between a homogenous and heterogeneous earth. All of the data were compared, including conductivity, in-phase, fractal dimension and the regolith of the area. It was hoped that this would provide added depth to the understanding of the mound springs as well as trialling an alternate method of processing data. Although the data collected did show some correlations, especially in regards to the relationships between the conductivity and the EM signature of the mound springs, there was a lack of consistent correlation between the fractal dimension and the other data sets that did not allow for conclusions as to the usefulness of fractal dimension as a means of processing data. This may be due to the small survey size of the area, thus testing on larger areas may be worthwhile in the future.

Very little is known about the groundwater flow paths from the subsurface of the Great Artesian Basin to the surface basins throughout the Australian continent. The Wabma Kadarbu Mound Springs in northern South Australia lie at the south-west margin of the Great Artesian Basin and contain a number of springs that continually discharge groundwater over time. This work deals with the self potential (SP) method which was used along three intersecting lines in the area to help gain a better understanding of groundwater flow. The SP method responds to the electrokinetic phenomenon of streaming potential which can be applied to hydrogeological investigations to help evaluate the subsurface groundwater flow conditions. Because the SP data do not intrinsically yield a good indication of the depth of the sources generating groundwater flow, numerical models are developed to assess the SP distribution resulting from subsurface fluid flow. The self-potential associated with groundwater flow in an electrolytic environment is modelled by assuming a primary source as an electric double layer between the flowing groundwater and the porous media created by the flowing SP currents. This primary flow generates the secondary surface charge and double layers on the interfaces between media with different conductivities. The geometry of the sources is obtained from an image reconstruction technique which determines the spatial locations of SP sources. The modelling and image reconstructions help to obtain a better understanding of these flow paths and how they make their way to the surface can give a greater chance of collecting the groundwater to use to good effect. The results showed evidence for groundwater flow networks in the subsurface of the Wabma Kadarbu springs. The groundwater flow networks for all three lines had similar characteristics including having individual columns connected at depth and large widths for the columns. This research showed that SP can be used to help better understand groundwater flow patterns in the subsurface.
