AbstractAlthough the impacts of urban development on catchment hydrology are well established, the hydrological effect of urban development on receiving wetlands is less well understood. This paper describes an investigation into the impacts of urban development on a high value wetland. The objective of the investigation is to move towards generalisations about hydrological impacts that can be assessed without detailed modelling studies. The analyses indicate that urban development will have a significant impact on wetland hydrology at an annual and seasonal time scale leading to hydrological changes that will disadvantage emergent plant species and advantage other species, leading to long-term changes in vegetation community structure and habitat availability |
