Management practices to maintain connectivity between and within wetlands:

  • Adequate buffer zones
  • Appropriate environmental flow releases
  • Appropriate transport corridor development (i.e. allowing adequate animal and water movement)
  • Fish friendly crossings and floodgates (e.g. functional fishways)
  • Re-establishment of natural drainage/connectivity networks (e.g. wildlife corridors)
  • Removal of barriers to connectivity (e.g. bunds)
  • Revegetation/rehabilitation of habitat
