Lakes Nunijup, Poorrarecup and Carabundup – Hydrology Report 2009
The three large lakes in the upper Kent River catchment – Nunijup, Poorrarecup and Carabundup – are the natural disposal points for discharge from the catchment and their salinities may have risen as a result of forest clearing and lower rainfall, possibly caused by climate change.

Tambellup Townsite & Jam Creek Catchment Salinity and Hydrology Report 1997
Tambellup is experiencing increasing salinity problems. Saline groundwater levels are close to the soil surface and cause deterioration of buildings, roads, infrastructure, death of trees and scalding of land including the sporting grounds. Many hectares of land in the Jam Creek Catchment has become salt-affected and salinity is on the increase.

Kent River – Hydrogeomorphology and Hydrogeology of the Upper Kent River Catchment and its Controls on Salt Distribution and Patterns of Groundwater Discharge 1997
As one of the five national program focal catchments, the Ken Catchment has provided an opportunity for new methodologies to be developed for landscape mapping, hydrogeomorphic classification and hydrogeological characterisation. Detailed knowledge of these features is basic to development of management practices to control surface water and groundwater movement.
