HOWCROFT, WILLIAM DAVID Transit Times of Water and Solutes in the Barwon River and Otway Catchments of Southeast Australia Fresh water is one of Earth’s most important resources and is used extensively for potable water supply, agriculture, industry, and recreation. Yet, at the same time, fresh water is a finite resource. Most is locked up in the polar ice caps and as glaciers and, for this reason, is largely unavailable for use. The remainder consists of groundwater and, to a lesser extent, surface water. Once considered separate entities, groundwater and surface water are now widely viewed as a single resource. This study focuses on the interaction between groundwater and rivers using the concept of transit times.
