Assessing the Status of Groundwater in the Great Artesian Basin
The Australian Government, through the National Water Infrastructure Development Fund, commissioned Geoscience Australia to undertake a 3-year project ‘Assessing the Status of Groundwater in the Great Artesian Basin’.
The overall aim of the project was to analyse existing and new geoscientific data acquired by the project to improve understanding of the hydrogeological system and water balance in the GAB. In conjunction, the project assessed satellite based technologies for monitoring groundwater storage and level change.
This talk will discuss some of the key results of the project. These include: an updated hydrogeological framework for the GAB, mapping aquifer and aquitard properties, geometry and extent; revised groundwater recharge rate estimates in the eastern GAB groundwater intake beds; new groundwater system conceptual models of groundwater recharge processes and groundwater flow; an assessment of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite derived groundwater storage change estimates for the GAB; and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) satellite data, for detecting changes in groundwater levels.
