Integrated groundwater flow model: Laidley Creek catchment, Lockyer Valley, southeast QueenslandPavel Dvoracek PhD 2006 - 2010 
Faculty Faculty of Science and Technology Supervisor/s Aspro Malcolm Cox, Prof Peter Grace Thesis Abstract The Lockyer Valley region uses intensive irrigation, predominantly groundwater from the shallow alluvial aquifer. Without adequate management of groundwater resources, the water supply situation will deteriorate. To manage the groundwater resource requires more information on the groundwater flow system as well as overall hydrological system.
This project aims to define a framework and apply numerical modelling techniques to gain an understanding of the hydrogeological processes within the Laidley Creek catchment. The main focus will be on the shallow alluvial aquifer as a main resource of available groundwater. The research objectives are to:
