Bioavailable nutrients from sediment data (BAN data)

Soil erosion is a major sediment and nutrient source to aquatic ecosystems of Australia posing a major threat to our drinking water supply, agricultural production, fisheries, and Australian biodiversity. The remediation of erosion sources has become a major focus for protecting receiving waterways, and there is now an extensive amount of soil, sediment and bioavailable nutrients data from sediment samples from an increasing number of projects. We have consolidated this data in one dataset for projects in the Great Barrier Reef and South-East Queensland catchments from 2016 to 2019 where DETSI was involved.
