  1. Ian, you should study Australia’s River System because it’s so very interesting! Our land has mountains, deserts, plains, valleys and basins, all of which respond to rainfall differently. For example, when there’s a lot of rain in Queensland, the rainwater flows south and south west, causing floods in the basins and reviving nature and wildlife in the process. So while some parts of the country are battling rising floodwaters, other parts are seeing the rivers come to life for the first time in years! You should also research the Murray-Darling Basin, Lake Eyre, and the flood plains. Fascinating stuff!
