  • The chloride deposition dataset was originally created by taking observational chloride in rainfall data from 291 sites across Australia and interpolating it to form a gridded data set at a resolution of 0.05° x 0.05° for the region of Australia. This dataset (and the derivative 95% confidence interval for upper and lower datasets) were created by CSIRO.

  • This dataset relates to the Victorian Aquifer Framework (VAF) 3D Surface for the Lower Mid Tertiary Aquifer. It represents the mapped extent of the aquifer. Please refer to the master metadata record VAF 'Victorian Aquifer Framework (VAF) 3D Surfaces' for detailed information.

  • In 2011-2012 a species tolerance model was developed by Arthur Rylah Institute, collaborating with DPI, to provide a relative measure of sensitivity of groundwater dependent species to changes in groundwater availability and quality. This grid is the mean output of the model for each Grid cell. Grid cell values have been used to attribute the Potential Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems mapping. Potential Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDE) are ecosystems identified within the landscape as likely to be at least partly dependent on groundwater. Refer to the Potential Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems metadata record for a full acount of the data product.

  • Projection data is described in the gridcode column of the attribute table. This number is 1000 times the actual value (retained in this form to capture significant figures through map processing). For example, "Gridcode -23599" equates to -24% (rainfall) and "Gridcode 1986" equates to 2.0 degrees Celsius (temperature). The results are from 23 climate models that were available for the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (2007). It is assumed that that the model results give a representation of the real world response to a specific emissions scenario. The IPCC (2007) estimates of global warming are relative to the period 1980-1999. For convenience, the baseline is often called 1990. Projections are given for 2030 and 2070 but, of course, individual years can vary markedly within any climate period, so the values can be taken as representative of the decade around the single year stated, i.e. projections for 2030 are representative of 2026-2035. Natural variability (independent of greenhouse gas forcing) can cause decadal means to vary and estimates of this effect are included in the estimates of uncertainties. The projections comprise a central estimate and a range of uncertainty. The central estimate is the median – or 50th percentile - of the model results, while the uncertainty range is based on two extreme values – the 10th and 90th percentiles. 10% of values fall below the 10th percentile and 10% of values lie above the 90th percentile. Greater emphasis is given to projections from models that best simulate the present climate. The weightings are based on statistical measures of how well each model can simulate the 1975-2004 average patterns of rainfall, temperature, and sea level pressure over Australia. Subregions of Victoria are indicated. Victoria has an integrated catchment management system established under the Catchment and Land Protection Act 1994 (the CaLP Act). Under the CaLP Act, Victoria is divided into ten catchment regions, with a Catchment Management Authority (CMA) established for each region.

  • This dataset was compiled for the purposes of the Secure Allocations Future Entitlements (SAFE) project. The SAFE project was funded by the Commonwealth Government under the Nartional Groundwater Action Plan to progress the managment of groundwater in Victoria. A number of datasets were used to produce the Watertable Elevation Surface included bore readings of watertable depth and a digital terrain model for the state. Existing models of watertable geometry from a number of projects were also incoroporated into the mapping process. At the conclusion of the project, a model based on watertable elevation in mAHD was produced at a 100m resolution.

  • Baseflow separation analysis was undertaken for 180 stream gauges on unregulated rivers in Victoria. This included the 178 gauges assessed in previous DEPI and MDBA assessments. The baseflow separation analysis was undertaken on historical river flow records up to 2012 and utilised a filter parameter of 0.98.

  • This dataset is derived from the Melway directory and contains the pagegrid for the 1:10 000 inner urban maps.
