| Keyword | carbon |
| Program | The Living Murray |
| Theme | Environmental Water |
| Objective | Quantify the amount of allochthonous carbon on the Lindsay and Mulcra Floodplains to determine how much dissolved organic carbon (DOC) may be released into the waterways in an inundation event, and to determine the effect this may have on dissolved oxygen (DO) levels. This will inform planning to avoid blackwater events. |
