Thomson (engelsk: Thomson River) er ei periodisk elv i delstaten Queensland i Australia. Den er en del av Eyresjøens nedbørfelt.

Elva begynner rundt 150 kilometer vest-sørvest for Charters Towers som Torrens Creek, som munner ut i Cornish Creek. Elva Thomson dannes like nord for byen Muttaburra, hvor Cornish Creek løper sammen med Landsborough Creek og Towerhill Creek. 50 kilometer sør for Muttaburra kommer Aramac Creek inn fra øst.

Elva fortsetter mot sørvest og passerer byene Longreach, Stonehenge og Jundah, før den løper sammen med Barcoo rundt 40 kilometer nord for Windorah og danner Cooper Creek.[2]

Som alle andre elver i Eyre-bekkenet når vannet i Thomson aldri fram til havet, men blir absorbert av jordsmonnet eller fordamper i ørkenen. Flommer er relativt vanlig i nedbørfeltet på grunn av regn som følge av sommermonsunen. På grunn av det flate landskapet som elva renner gjennom kan den da bli flere kilometer bred og forårsake store vanskeligheter. Ved Windorah kan elva bli opptil 40 kilometer bred i flomtiden.[2] I de lange tørre periodene renner imidlertid ikke elva i det hele tatt, og blir redusert til en kjede av laguner og kroksjøer (kalt billabonger).[2]

De viktigste næringsveiene i området er sau- og kvegdrift.
