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

This report presents a stocktake and analysis of completed, current and proposed activities and initiatives which focus on improving longitudinal surface water connectivity across the northern Murray–Darling Basin (the northern Basin) ‘to and through’ Menindee Lakes. Longitudinal connectivity along and between river reaches is critical for maintaining healthy ecosystems and supports a wide range of social, cultural and economic values.

The Murray–Darling Basin Authority (MDBA) has reassured communities the storages and weirs are well positioned to meet irrigation, community, and environmental needs this summer.

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.

The sustainable use of groundwater is vital to ensuring the health of the Murray–Darling Basin.
