    1. The table below shows information about three rivers in Australia.

    (a) (i) Which of these rivers has the largest catchment area? [1]

    (ii) Calculate the average flow in litres/hectare for the Mary. [1]

    (iii) Which river provides the most efficient water supply? Give a reason for your answer. [2]

    (b) The Mary River is in Queensland, NE Australia. This area has been suffering its worst drought
    in a 100 years. One suggested solution is to dam the Mary River. Below is a quote from a leaflet
    produced by a group who are against this dam.

    “We understand that people need water solutions BUT Traveston Crossing Dam on the Mary
    River is NOT one of them”

    (i) Suggest three reasons why people living in the Mary River valley might be against the
    Traveston Crossing dam. [3]

    (ii) Another way to obtain more water for the area would be by desalination. Briefly describe the
    desalination process and suggest characteristics of a country that would allow it to produce water by
    this process. [3]
