Abstract

This report reviews previous sand nourishment and seagrass translocation projects in Gold Coast waterways to determine factors influencing colonisation and transplant success. Additionally, the report presents findings from seagrass field surveys in the Broadwater at sites of foreshore nourishment and transplant projects. It also provides guidelines for seagrass restoration and rehabilitation as a guide for future work in Gold Coast waterways. The broader ecological benefits that flow from restoring seagrass habitats are also described.
