    Abstract

    This project was carried out to identify the major processes involved in the delivery of sediment and nutrients to rivers within the Burdekin River catchment. It has identified critical areas of erosion potential, the physical processes that dominate in these areas and which areas are the major contributors of sediment and nutrients to the coast. The project outcomes will be of benefit to the grazing industry and other natural resource management agencies, enabling them to target these critical areas and thus to effectively use the resources directed at minimizing sediment and nutrient export from grazed land.
