This report provides those NRMs who have collaborated over the past three years in the Community DustWatch project with individual reports on where and when dust activity has occurred in their region.
This information is being used as a performance indicator of land management and to report against NRM targets. It identifies the drivers behind significant individual dust events as being either land management or climate. It also identifies sources of dust as being either local to the NRM region or long-range transported dust that can have significant impact on a statewide scale.
