Current Funding

Current and recent Research Funding to JCU is shown by funding source and project.

Department of the Environment and Energy - National Environmental Science Program (NESP) - Tropical Water Quality Hub (TWQ Hub)

Ecotoxicology of pesticides on the Great Barrier Reef for guideline development and risk assessments

Indicative Funding: $205,975 over 4 years (administered by AIMS)
Summary: Over 50 land-sourced pesticides have been detected in waters of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) and its catchments. Previous studies on the risks posed by pesticides have focused on five priority PSll herbicides. However, other pesticides are increasingly being used, for which there are few fate, persistence and toxicity data. In order to improve water quality guidelines and assessments of the potential risks posed by these ' alternate' pesticides to GBR and its catchments we will quantify their toxicity to freshwater and marine species.
Investigators: Andrew Negri and Shelley Templeman in collaboration with Joost van Dam, Frederieke Kroon, Florita Flores, Simon Harries, Aaron Davis, Stephen Lewis, Jochen Mueller, Sarit Kaserzon, Reinier Mann, Rachael Smith and Katherine Martin (Australian Institute of Marine Science, TropWATER, The University of Queensland, QLD Department of Science, Information Technology and Innovation and Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority)
Keywords: Pesticides; Water Quality; Great Barrier Reef; Freshwater; Ecotoxicology; agricultural run-off

Carpentaria Gold Pty Ltd - Contract Research

Design & Development of Receiving Environment Monitoring Program

Indicative Funding: $939,176 over 5 years
Summary: TropWATER will review the existing environmental monitoring data and undertake a detailed environmental survey of the Carpentaria Cold operations with a view to designing a receiving environment monitoring program to be implemented in the 2015/16 wet season.

Mt Leyshon REMP

Indicative Funding: $775,490 over 5 years
Summary: Development, implementation and reporting of the first stage of a receiving environment monitoring program (REMP) for the closed Mt Leyshon Mine, Charters Towers, Queensland.
Investigators: Shelley Templeman in collaboration with Cassandra James, Barry Butler, Christopher Williams and Damien Burrows (TropWATER)
Keywords: Gold; Water Quality; Biological Monitoring; Receiving Environment; Vegetation Monitoring

2015 Woodcutters REMP

Indicative Funding: $490,788 over 5 years
Summary: Development, implementation and reporting of the first stage of a receiving environment monitoring program (REMP) for the closed Woodcutters Mine, Batchelor, Northern Territory.
Investigators: Shelley Templeman in collaboration with Barry Butler and Christopher Williams (TropWATER)
Keywords: Lead; Zinc; Biological Monitoring; Receiving Environment

Glencore Mount Isa Mines - Contract Research

Review of Glencore Water Quality Monitoring

Indicative Funding: $9,715
Summary: The quality of water discharges from the Glencore Bulk Storage and Handling Facility at the Port of Townsville is managed through an on-site treatment system comprising gravity stormwater filters and a centralised first-flush treatment facility. The specific objective of the review is to assess current water quality monitoring arrangements and provide advice on monitoring infrastructure/practices and data evaluation to ensure Environmental Authority compliance. However it also advances wider research aims concerned with the development of more targeted water quality guidelines and compliance assessment processes for tropical systems subject to extremely variable patterns of rainfall and runoff.
Investigators: Shelley Templeman and Christopher Williams (TropWATER)
