The Living Murray initiative aims to recover water and implement works to achieve specific environmental outcomes for six icon sites along the River Murray.

The Environmental Watering Plan is a central part of the Basin Plan. Its purpose is to achieve the best possible environmental outcomes using the increased, but still finite, amount of water made available by the Basin Plan.

The Lower Lakes, Coorong and Murray Mouth is one of six icon sites along the Murray River identified as a priority under The Living Murray river restoration program.

We used inundation mapping to assess the impacts of various flow heights on land and infrastructure. This report describes the method used to develop inundation mapping and assess effects of flows.

The specifications for spatial data is available to help you prepare datasets and metadata that meet the MDBA's data standards.

On 29 June 2012, the Murray–Darling Basin Ministerial Council requested that the MDBA complete a ‘relaxed-constraints’ model scenario with a Basin-wide reduction in diversions of 3200 GL/y.

There are knowledge limitations regarding the response of native and exotic tree species to water management interventions.

This literature review addresses the topic of the creation of suitable habitat for waterbirds through retaining floodwater on floodplains or flow enhancement management interventions with particular reference to six hypotheses identified by the Murray–Darling Basin Authority as key areas for greater understanding.

This literature review comprises three major sections, each examining the effects of flooding on floodplain and aquatic plant habitats, plant life histories and vegetation community dynamics.

This publication reviews food web ecology in the Murray–Darling Basin; develops conceptual models linking flow enhancement to food source response in both estuarine and freshwater systems; and identifies priorities for research and monitoring programs to examine ecosystem, productivity and food web response to flooding.
