Marine Monitoring Program: Annual report for inshore water quality monitoring 2018-19

[Extract] The program design includes the collection of water samples along transects in the Cape York, Wet Tropics, Burdekin and Mackay-Whitsunday regions year-round, with higher frequency sampling during the wet season to better characterise this period of episodic river discharge. Satellite imagery and modelling simulations are linked with in-situ monitoring data to estimate the exposure of inshore areas to end-of-catchment loads from rivers
