- Signs and Signals
Signs and Signals in this report are the categories used to assess the Aquatic Ecosystem Health of each indicator (Water Quantity, Water Quality, Habitat and Species, Health and Wellbeing). Each sign and signal describes data and information, as outlined in the Conceptual Framework that underlies this report.
- SOAERThe MRBB has a duty to report on the state of the aquatic ecosystem every five years. Please see the About page for more information
- Sub-basin
A geographic area within a larger drainage basin typically delineated by a tributary drainage area. In this report, the sub-basin boundaries are roughly based on hydrology and could be considered sub-regions.
