From the Head

"Up the Yangtze"

The June 2008 edition of eNBErs highlighted our School’s excellent recent successes in the ARC linkage round. This included new projects on Transit Oriented Development (TOD) in the northern Adelaide region from Playford to Gawler and also an integrated assessment of sustainable urban growth around the Noarlunga Centre in the south. A further project will be looking at modeling South Australia’s electricity grid network with the target for 20% alternative energy by 2020 and we will be providing the GIS and spatial modeling component to that study. Finally, the new focus of the State on water security based around the proposed desalination plant fits in very well with the SA Water Centre for Water Management and Reuse linkage project of the new deputy director Associate Professor Linda Zou, who is working to set up a pilot reverse osmosis desalination plant at Mawson Lakes.
