Brunswick pools

Basin : Collie River

Catchment : Collie River

The condition of the Brunswick pools (site code: CR49BRUN1), in the lower catchment of the Brunswick River, was assessed on the 15 March 2019, over a 100-m length of stream. At this time no previous assessments of river ecology had been reported.

The assessment was conducted using standard methods from the South West Index of River Condition. Measures chosen for this assessment included fish and crayfish, aquatic habitat, spot readings of water quality (dissolved oxygen, temperature, electrical conductivity, and pH and colour, alkalinity, turbidity and nutrients), fringing vegetation, channel morphology, erosion, connectivity, local land use and flow.
