The wetland projects search tool lists on-ground wetland and wetland related projects from a range of funding programs, stakeholder groups and land managers. It complements the Australian Government on-ground project database and search tool MERIT.
Aquatic Conservation Assessments (ACAs) are non-social and non-economic and designed with the sole intent of identifying conservation values of wetlands at a user-defined scale.
In the Southeast Queensland Aquatic Conservation Assessment the AquaBAMM methodology has been applied separately to the non-riverine (i.e. palustrine and lacustrine) and riverine wetlands within each of the 16 catchments. There are 32 ACAs for the riverine and non-riverine wetlands in the study area.
A series of on-line education modules have been prepared as a resource for people who want to learn more about wetlands. Users can download and use the contents of these education modules to meet their learning and training needs. This information should be used in conjunction with information found on this website.
Several new Queensland-wide layers have been made available through WetlandInfo's WetlandMaps service. The new layers now available on WetlandMaps are:
The Report Card 2014—Great Barrier Reef-wide summary which measures progress towards Reef Plan's goals and targets included wetland extent, derived from wetlands mapping. A separate case study (PDF) outlines a pilot project which reports on wetland environmental values and processes.
The WetlandUpate is a regular bulletin sent to subscribers to provide them with the latest WetlandInfo resources and tools, as well as case studies, video information and new project fact sheets.

Our WetlandInfo feature frog is Cyclorana verrucosa, commonly known as the rough collared frog. This species is native to areas of Queensland and New South Wales, and is dependent on wetlands for the early aquatic stage of their life cycle.
