The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from the HUN Catchments dataset. The source dataset is identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



Catchment areas for the main rivers and their main tributaries within the Hunter subregion.  Defines the area in square kilometers for each of the following.



Hunter:    

    Moonan Brook

    Stewarts Brook

    Paterson River

    Williams River

    Pages Creek

    Pages River

    Goulburn River

    Wollombi Brook

Macquarie Tuggerah:    

    Dora Creek

    Wyong River

    Ourimbah Creek

## **Dataset History** 

Catchment area for the main rivers and their main tributaries within the Hunter subregion. Areas were reported in a table in the context statement and were calculated from the shapefile:



Hunter_Major_Tributaries_Projected.shp



The shapefile was derived for the Hunter catchments shapefile by aggregating selected catchments (listed below) and then projected according to the following information.
