School DustWatch
Schools in desert Australia participated in the project aimed at introducing real life science into the school curriculum. Students and teachers alike learnt how to measure dust activity and monitor local wind erosion. read more>>
DustWatch Nodes
Dustwatch Nodes are instrument measurement sites maintained by selected DustWatchers. High-volume air samplers and PM10 monitors provide continuous, objective data in partnership with the community.read more>>
CEMSYS – Continental wind erosion model
CEMSYS (Computational Environmental Management System) is a wind erosion model that operates from continental to sub-basin scales, and is used to map continental wind erosion. read more>>
State of Environment Reports
Since 1997, Griffith University has contributed wind erosion data to National or Queensland State of Environment Reports.

Bioregion scale of Wind Erosion
Dust Storm Index (DSI) statistics for rangeland bioregions were mapped to assist the Australian Collaborative Rangelands Information System. read more>>
Visibility-Dust Concentration model
The aim of this project was to develop a new measure of wind erosion; dust concentration, to replace the Dust Storm Index (DSI). read more>>
Wind Erosion Histories
The project aim is to improve wind erosion information and modelling capacity, for use by the States and regional Natural Resource Management (NRM) bodies for resource condition reporting. This includes long term wind erosion histories developed from Bureau of Meteorology observation data for all NRM regions in Australia for the period 1960 to 2008.
