Modelling contaminant dynamics in a well-mixed/stratified estuary. The proposed mixed/stratified estuarine model is unique and will predict effects of stormwater discharge on water quality, provide guidelines for loading from various contaminant sources, assess impact of marine construction activities, establish effects of natural and anthropogenic resuspension and determine spatial/temporal changes in contaminant distributions.

The proposed mixed/stratified estuarine model is unique and will predict effects of stormwater discharge on water quality, provide guidelines for loading from various contaminant sources, assess impact of marine construction activities, establish effects of natural and anthropogenic resuspension and determine spatial/temporal changes in contaminant distributions. Knowledge generated will assist making decisions locally and overseas regarding the protection of valuable living resources, the future environmental status of estuarine systems under alternative management and remedial strategies, management contaminated sediments, new legislation for best management practise, and support for long-term policy development for this estuary type.
