The research focused on improving understanding of low flow requirements of environmental assets and values in a climate change context and developing a conservation prioritisation method to identify priority locations for future management decisions.

​​This study explored the ability to develop reference curves to describe exemplar age class distributions for key floodplain tree species. ​ ​​Understanding the characteristics of tree populations, such as their density, age structure, rates of recruitment (germination and establishment of new trees), growth, and mortality (death rates), are important to understanding the likelihood that tree populations are sustainable. This includes understanding the role of these processes on age class distributions. Developing reference curves – tools that help to define the acceptable limits of parameters such as age class distributions – helps us to determine the likelihood that tree populations are sustainable or may require management intervention to promote recruitment or old growth for example. ​

10 Basin towns across Victoria have been announced as finalists of the 2024 Transport Accident Commission (TAC) Victorian Top Tourism Town Awards.

Murray River #2 Aussie Icon as determined by Australian Traveller magazine

With the warm sunny days still upon us, this weekend is the perfect opportunity to soak up the beauty of the Murray–Darling Basin or take part in the many activities and events happening across Basin catchments and communities.

Following several years of significant rainfall and higher river levels in the Murray during Autumn, river users can expect a return to lower levels this Easter.

Water, sunlight, and clean air – did you know Goondiwindi has the perfect environment for growing ocean microalgae? This week MDBA Chair Sir Angus Houston visited Goondiwindi's Algae Pharm as part of his listening tour and learnt how the algae farm captures and recycles water.

We take account of recreational activities when making decisions on releases and water level targets when operating the River Murray.

The Murray–Darling Basin has many different ecosystems and is home to a large variety of native plants, which all contribute to the health of the Basin.

Over recent years there have been significant changes in water use on the River Murray between Barmah and the South Australian border. This study investigates the changes historical data shows over time.
