Water Quality
Turbidity

Photo:Nymphoides indica - DERM Turbidity within the Wet Tropics province is generally very low. Light penetration through the water column will be high and is not likely to be a limiting factor for benthic algal primary production, or for aquatic macrophyte growth. This is evident by the frequency at which aquatic macrophytes were recorded in this province.
