Lort River
Lort River is a river located in the Goldfields-Esperance region and the Eastern Mallee sub-region of Western Australia. The headwaters of the Lort River begin in the Peak Charles National Park and its surrounding vacant Crown land. The river flows in a south-westerly direction and enters farmland area for a distance of with a reserve that is an average of wide containing riparian vegetation. The river then enters the Stokes National Park before discharging into Stokes Inlet. Both the river and the inlet were named by John Septimus Roe while exploring and surveying the area in 1848 after his friend Admiral John Lort Stokes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Department of the Environment and Conservation - Stokes National Park )〕 The catchment of the river has been extensively cleared for Agricultural purposes. It is estimated that 60% of the catchment has been cleared; this has led to increased sedimentation, eutrophication and salinity levels of the river.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=South Coast Rivercare - Lort River )〕 ==References==
