5 ways the government can clean up the Murray-Darling Basin Plan
The health of the Murray-Darling Basin, Australia's largest and most complex river system, is in rapid decline, and faces major challenges over the next 30 years as the climate changes. In our view, there are still major problems with the implementation of the Murray-Darling Basin Plan. These must be addressed to make sure the system is resilient enough to have a reasonable chance of bouncing back from future shocks to the river's ecosystems, particularly due to climate change. Here are five ways the government can clean up the Murray-Darling Basin Plan so the river system has a chance of surviving in the long term.

Research priorities to improve future environmental water outcomes
Significant progress in environmental flow management has occurred in recent years due to several factors. These include governments committing to environmental flow programs, significant progress in scientific understanding, and environmental flow assessment methods that are cognizant of stakeholder participation and co-design. However, there remain key challenges facing environmental water management. In this paper, we report on a horizon scanning exercise that identified the questions, which, if answered, would deliver much needed progress in the field of environmental water management. We distributed an online survey to ask researchers and practitioners in the field of environmental water management to identify the key questions. The authors then consolidated 268 submitted questions and organized them into key themes. The consolidated list was presented to a workshop of environmental water researchers and practitioners, where attendees were asked to review the questions, vote on the most important, and provide feedback on gaps, issues, or overlaps. The breadth of issues facing environmental water management is captured by the six key themes into which questions were classified: (1) Ecological knowledge and environmental flow assessment methods, (2) Adaptive management, (3) Integrated management and river objectives, (4) Knowledge transfer: applying best practice in a global context, (5) Community knowledge and engagement, and (6) Active management. These questions provide a roadmap for research and management innovations that will improve the effectiveness of environmental flows programs. ; Full Text

Environmental monitoring handbook
In: McGraw-Hill's AccessEngineering
Annotation ANALYTICAL METHODS AND PROCEDURES FOR ALL ASPECTS OF THE ENVIRONMENT - IN ONE HANDY REFERENCE! Here is the first book to bring together and fully explain the analytical methods and procedures used or every aspect of the environment - water, soil, and air. Designed to be the first point of reference for anyone wanting to monitor environmental variables, the "Handbook examines all the methods and problems associated with each monitoring method. Edited by an international team of four hands-on experts, "Environmental Monitoring Handbook covers all types of monitoring including: * Chemical * Biological * Hydrological * Ectotoxological * Microbiological * Physical You'll also find a thorough discussion of data analysis and experimental design as they pertain to environmental monitoring. If you're looking for a single definitive source of environmental monitoring information, your search ends here. Annotation.
