Method for Assessing Dryland Salinity

Sites of salt-affected soil caused by groundwater discharge have been mapped for dryland areas in Victoria using a method based on the identification of salt tolerant species. This report "Method for field assessment of dryland salinity in Victoria using GPS technology"; completed in November 2008 by Robert Clark from the Department of Primary Industries, describes in detail the current field method employed to identify, assess and map the extents of dryland salinity in Victoria.
