The Lower–Balonne floodplain system was identified as a priority in the Northern Basin Review process and it was recognised that region-specific knowledge on floodplain vegetation was limited. Consequently a commitment was made to undertake research aimed at improving the understanding of the water availability and use by four key floodplain vegetation species which are common in the Lower–Balonne.
