The average alkalinity of a freshwater stream typically ranges from 20 to 200 mg/L as calcium carbonate (CaCO3), though it can vary significantly depending on the geology of the watershed, land use, and seasonal factors. Alkalinity is a measure of the water's capacity to neutralize acids, largely influenced by the presence of bicarbonates, carbonates, and hydroxides. Streams in areas with limestone or other carbonate-rich soils generally have higher alkalinity compared to those in silicate-dominated regions. Monitoring alkalinity is essential for assessing water quality and ecosystem health.

Sydney's first freshwater supply came from the Tank Stream, so named because storage tanks were constructed in the sandstone beside the Tank Stream during a drought in 1790.
