A Metapopulation Model to Assess Water Management Impacts on the Threatened Australian Lungfish, <i>Neoceratodus forsteri</i> by Charles R. Todd, Andrew J. McDougall, Scott M. C. Raymond, Robin Hale, Timothy R. Brown, John D. Koehn, Henry F. Wootton, Steven G. Brooks, Adrian M. Kitchingman, Tom Espinoza, Benjamin G. Fanson, Peter K. Kind, Sharon M. Marshall, David T. Roberts

“…The main threats to lungfish populations are degradation and availability of key macrophyte habitats, water regulation and flow modification. As this long-lived species (at least 77 years) has delayed maturity (mature at 10 years), field monitoring alone will not be enough to inform the challenge of ensuring sustainable populations. …”
