Description |
The Otway Ranges, including the Barham River Catchment, received record rainfall and strong winds during the month of August. The Barham River flooded onto the riparian zone, large logs and heavy debris were washed down stream to lodge around the estuary mouth. Banks of this debris were, in places, topped with silt and sand. The shape and location of the mouth has been altered by these events. |
