Optimising the management of riparian zones to improve the health of the Great Barrier Reef: Report to the National Environmental Science Program

The health of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is threatened by excessive delivery of sediments (and the pollutants they carry) to the marine environment. Remediation of riparian vegetation is considered an important mechanism for reducing stream bank erosion, improving water quality, and subsequently GBR health outcomes. But despite previous investments in such projects, there is a paucity of information on whether previous investments have been successful in delivering these benefits, and what mechanisms or incentives could be refined to better facilitate success. To help fill this knowledge gap, this study undertook three activities.
