Flooding prevention
18 April 2022In the wake of the recent floods, it makes us wonder, ‘is Australia adapting to climate change and striving for a more sustainable footing?’.
This week I came across the following statement as part of a criteria for infrastructure investment: “delivering catalytic blue infrastructure (waterways and the facilities that support them) and green infrastructure (assets that incorporate natural vegetation)”. The signs are good!
In the sphere of water resource management, operational structures, such as pumps, gates, weirs and leaky weirs, play an important role in building resilient infrastructure to improve catchment hydrology and protect communities against flooding. In addition, catchment land practices and vegetation strategies also provide mechanisms to manipulate catchment hydrology processes. In a warming climate, with projected sea level rise and more extreme flooding, it seems we will need both improved operational structures and improved catchment land management practices to achieve requisite adaptation.
Of course, evaluating such infrastructure and management practices, and monitoring their long-term efficacy is challenging. It is one thing to develop a great design, it is another to maintain its operation to achieve the design performance both of the infrastructure itself and the broader objective. HydroTerra has been increasingly involved in assessing various infrastructure projects, infrastructure operation and performance outcomes, based on long-term monitoring data.
