Student worksheet 2.3 Flow of water in the Great Artesian Basin – three scenarios Early 21st-century conditions Conditions 250 years ago (before wells): assuming spring discharge was 200,000 ML/yr Sustainable future conditions; assuming sustainable flow from bores is 450,000 megalitres per year What steps must be taken to move from the conditions in the top diagram to those in the bottom? What difference would this make to the environment in the Great Artesian Basin
