Cooper Creek, Australia’s mystery river with Bob Tooth
25 September 2020 @ 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
$5Cooper Creek has many moods. In the wet when the monsoon brings heavy rains the Cooper is wall of
water up to 70 kilometres wide flowing inland to fill Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre. In dry times it’s a series of
waterholes with barely a trickle of water evaporating long before it gets to the lake. Sometimes it dries up
completely.
Understanding Cooper Creek is the topic of the forum on September 25. Guest speaker Bob Tooth is an inland waterway enthusiast who will share his knowledge of the geomorphology and hydrology of this dryland river as it travels from north Queensland to Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre. This talk will cover the passage of the 2019 Cooper Creek floods.
