Groundwater and salinity management
Elevated ground-waters and salinity are frequently an expression of disruption of local or landscape scale water balance. Strategic establishment of perennial vegetation in the landscape can draw-down water-tables in a predictable manner, allowing design of natural systems that can rehabilitate degraded lands, and protect agricultural lands, natural ecosystems, remnant native vegetation and infrastructure. Verterra is a specialist in salinity management and can provide services in:
- Catchment modelling
- Groundwater flow modelling
- Groundwater impact modelling
- Salt tolerant species breeding and selection
- Soil amelioration and management
