One of the goals of the
River Murray Theme within the Flagship is to provide the research to support
the Murray-Darling Basin Commission's Living Murray Initiative.
Flood-dependent ecosystems along the Murray will soon begin to receive
additional environmental water under the Initiative. The initiative
recognises that some of the ecological outcomes that people care about – redgums, waterbirds and fish – are declining in health and abundance, and
that these declines are largely due to changes in water regimes. These
changes revolve around how much water is received, when it is received and
for how long. This article recently published in
