The Northern Australia Water Futures Assessment (NAWFA) is an Australian Government initiative to provide the science needed for sustainable development and protection of Northern Australia’s water resources. One project undertaken as part of the NAWFA Ecological Program was the TRaCK Northern Australia Ecological Assets Project.
