Abstract

The Gippsland Lakes region in eastern Victoria is a partially flushed coastal lake system within a diverse catchment of rural and urban communities. Pressure from lakeside developments, re-occurring blue-green algal blooms, declining fisheries, sedimentation and infilling of the ocean entrance, has borne several decades of focussed studies and routine monitoring programs, along with a variety of engineering and management solutions. A recent review recommended that these disparate studies should be enhanced to formulate a coordinated monitoring network that could improve both spatial and temporal coverage, develop a capacity to trigger responsive investigations and was able to serve the needs of system management. Through a series of partnerships an integrated network was developed that comprises event and baseline monitoring of catchment loads, local meteorological forcing and an array of water quality sampling sites within the lakes system. A majority of these sites are incorporated with real-time telemetry that provides up to the minute information to stakeholders via a web-based information management system and vital operational status to technical system management.
澳大利亚维多利亚州吉普斯兰湖综合观测网络:平衡科学与管理的需要
维多利亚州东部的吉普斯兰湖区是一个由农村和城市社区组成的多样化集水区内的部分冲积沿海湖泊系统。几十年来,由于湖边开发、蓝绿藻大量繁殖、渔业衰退、沉积物和海洋入口被填埋等因素造成的压力,对该地区进行了重点研究并实施了常规监测计划,同时还提出了各种工程和管理解决方案。最近的一项审查建议,应加强这些不同的研究,以建立一个协调的监测网络,该网络应能扩大空间和时间覆盖面,发展引发反应性调查的能力,并能满足系统管理的需要。通过一系列的合作,我们建立了一个综合网络,其中包括对集水区负荷的事件监测和基准监测、当地气象强迫和湖泊系统内的一系列水质采样点。其中大部分站点都配备了实时遥测技术,通过网络信息管理系统向利益相关者提供最新信息,并向技术系统管理部门提供重要的运行状况。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Coastal Research (JCR) is one of the leading international journals for coastal studies and processes, and is published bi-monthly by the Coastal Education & Research Foundation [CERF]. By covering the entire field of coastal research, the JCR encompasses all subjects relevant to natural and engineered environments (freshwater, brackish, or marine) and the protection/management of their resources in the vicinity of coastlines of the world. Even though the journal broadly focuses on immediate shoreline zones, the JCR also embraces those coastal environments that either reach some indefinite distance inland or that extend seaward beyond the outer margins of the sublittoral (neritic) zone. The JCR disseminates accurate information to both the public and research specialists around the world on all aspects of coastal issues in an effort to maintain or improve the quality of our planet''s shoreline resources.
