2.7.7 Limitations and gaps

Summary

The prediction of receptor impact variables at assessment units occurs in companion product 3-4 for the Galilee subregion (Lewis et al., 2018). Several gaps and limitations to the development of receptor impact models for the Galilee subregion are identified. Important limitations include the availability of experts with local knowledge for some landscape classes and elicitations, the inability to construct a receptor impact model for the potentially important ‘Springs’ landscape group, important knowledge gaps surrounding the connectivity between groundwater and surface water systems (both connectivity within landscape classes and groups of classes, as well as between ecosystems) in different parts of the subregion, and constraints to the availability of surface water modelling across the assessment extent.
