SMOS soil moisture assimilation for improved hydrologic simulation in the Murray Darling Basin, Australia

Spatially Distributed Investment Prioritization for Sediment Control over the Murray Darling Basin, Australia

Based on a spatially-distributed sediment budget across the Murray Darling Basin, costs of achieving a range of sediment reduction targets were estimated for a number of locations. Four investment prioritization scenarios were tested to identify the most cost-effective strategy to control suspended sediment loads. The impacts of spatial heterogeneity of sediment transport and varying the spatia...

Towards integrated modelling in the Murray-Darling Basin

The Murray-Darling Basin is characterised by low but highly variable rainfall and surface runoff and a high level of surface water use. Regulation has altered the stream flow pattern dramatically, affecting river dependent ecosystems. Responsibility for land and water management is fragmented, producing varying (and sometimes disparate) policies, management, and modelling approaches. The Murray...

Water Balance Dynamic Simulation Model-WBDSim for Water Policy options Analysis case study: Murray Darling Basin - Australia

1 CSIRO Land and Water, Adelaide, Australia. Email: [email protected] 2 CSIRO Land and Water, Canberra, Australia. Water is a key resource to sustain human life. Therefore, sustaining growth in the human population requires even more water to be available. Water sharing management is the major problem for water resources and irrigation management decision makers. The water Act 2007-Austral...
