New research investigates how to include future environmental change in water runoff models

For a long time, river modellers have faced the challenges of tracking water movement across landscapes. This task becomes more complex when different river catchments use different models. Along with jurisdictions, we are in the process of improving these systems and tools.

Annual Reports of the Chief Executive to parliament on the performance of the Murray–Darling Basin Authority.

The Murray–Darling Basin Authority (MDBA) is organised in 4 divisions. Branches are organised within these divisions to deliver the organisation's business and operational priorities.

The following is the Murray–Darling Basin Authority's (MDBA) statement of legal services expenditure for the financial year 2023–24.

The MDBA is partnering with states to create new river modelling roles, enhancing capability and building a deeper understanding of the Basin.

Sustainable diversion limits are how much water, on average, can be used in the Basin by towns and communities, farmers and industries.

We're using the best available science and knowledge to help deliver a productive and healthy future for the interconnected rivers of the Murray–Darling Basin.

In 2012 the Basin Plan listed estimates of the average annual volumes of floodplain harvesting as components of the baseline diversion limit (BDL) in some northern Basin sustainable diversion limit (SDL) resource units. The New South Wales ‘Healthy Floodplains Project’ includes work to enable calculation of re-estimates of BDLs associated with floodplain harvesting in these northern New South Wales SDL resource units. These volumes will contribute to re-estimates of the total BDLs for all forms of take.

In addition to new and exciting opportunities in water resource management, we offer excellent employment conditions in a relationship-based environment.
