The Hub has developed a Research and Monitoring Database (RaMonD) that aims to share knowledge of current and recent research and monitoring activities within the Hub's themes with those working in aquatic ecology. Sharing of this knowledge can avoid duplication of research effort and can provide effective research links to people and resources within topics of interest.
RaMonD is maintained by the Hub with inputs from the Victorian Catchment Management Authorities, the Arthur Rylah Institute, DELWP and the Victorian Environmental Water Holder (VEWH).
Please note that initial content within RaMonD covers only one theme - water for the environment. It is intended that following feedback from users, this content will be expanded to include all themes.

Habitat type | river |
Keyword | fish fishways |

System component | fish |
Theme | Environmental Water |
Objective | To collect technical and biological information concerning migratory fish in Gunbower Creek. The monitoring was then interpreted to determine if the fishways enable upstream and downstream passage of the full range of target fish species and size classes. The information collected will also be used to inform the design of the new fishways proposed under the new Living Murray program and for the existing weirs. |
