ABSTRACT The rivers of the south-eastern Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) and the associated irrigation areas of the southern riverine plain (SRP) in south-eastern Australia have undergone major hydrological changes over the last 30 years. These include a period of lower rainfall; a rebalance of surface water diversions between consumptive and environmental water uses under the MDB Basin Plan, improvements in water infrastructure; water trade out of the region; and falling groundwater levels. All these changes increase losses from streams to groundwater systems; potentially leading to the need for greater releases from dams to maintain baseflow in the major rivers. Baseflow is important for conveyance of water, water quality and baseflow-dependent ecosystems during dry periods. Hydrological changes in the SRP will reduce the streamflow by 2029–30 by an estimated 80 to 320 GL/yr. Further hydrological changes by 2029–30 will reduce the streamflow by another 50 GL/yr in the following decade. This is the first assessment of the cumulative stream impacts of the SRP and is relatively lower than previous assessments for single drivers. The current approach of mitigating unexpected losses is to increase conveyance loss budgets as required. This could be extended to mitigate the lower end of potential impacts; but further steps to reduce losses may be required towards the upper end. Further actions include a review of extraction limits for surface water and groundwater, trigger levels, and a greater shift towards conjunctive water management. Groundwater extraction, which has dominated impacts, is increasing from a relatively low proportion of the extraction limit in Goulburn-Murray Sedimentary Plain and shallow aquifers of the SRP. Over time, climate change will become more dominant as a driver. Most monitoring required to support mitigation already exists, but data is not collated or reported in a form relevant for stream impacts. Modelling also needs to be updated with reporting of more relevant outputs.

Dramaturgies for Re-imagining Murray-Darling basin governing 重新想象墨累-达令盆地治理的戏剧

Historically, governing, and thus planning, the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) has been framed in a plethora of ways. Seemingly, ‘the plan’ and planning has to be all things to all people, but the reforms, instituted in the Water Act 2007 (Cwlth), have resulted in greater complexity, uncertainty and controversy. Effective governing of the Basin along an unfolding, viable trajectory within an Anthropocene-world seems more elusive than ever. In this context, we propose a research and praxis agenda for dramaturgy as an initiative that seeks ‘effective’ water governance in the MDB. A dramaturge is someone,group, body or process who writes/adapts a play, brings forth a particular type of performance set in an ever-changing audience/context. Dramaturges engage in praxis. Two exemplar dramaturgies , developed through ex poste and ex ante analyses, are outlined. Each can be refined or consolidated in an on-going deliberative inquiry-process that generates social learning and effects concerted action for future MDB governance. Our research inquiry is exploratory but is based on a choice to frame governance from a cyber-systemic perspective, a praxis continually enacted through the interactions of actors, their symbols and frames and feedback dynamics between the social and biophysical world. We show how a dramaturgical framework can be used to analyse a policy process to reveal the important symbolic and performative dimensions, which are usually unrecognised.

从历史上看,墨累-达令盆地(MDB)的治理和规划有多种方式。看起来,“计划”和规划必须是所有人的全部,但2007年《水法》(Cwlth)中制定的改革导致了更大的复杂性、不确定性和争议。在人类世世界中,沿着一条正在展开的可行轨迹对盆地进行有效治理似乎比以往任何时候都更加难以捉摸。在这种背景下,我们提出了一项研究和实践议程,作为一项旨在寻求MDB“有效”水治理的举措。戏剧制作人是指在不断变化的观众/环境中创作/改编一部戏剧,展现特定类型表演的人、团体、身体或过程。戏剧涉及实践。概述了通过事后分析和事前分析发展起来的两种典型戏剧。每一项都可以在持续的审议调查过程中进行提炼或整合,从而产生社会学习,并为未来的MDB治理采取一致行动。我们的研究调查是探索性的,但基于从网络系统的角度构建治理的选择,这是一种通过参与者的互动、他们的符号和框架以及社会和生物物理世界之间的反馈动态不断制定的实践。我们展示了如何使用戏剧框架来分析政策过程,以揭示通常未被认识到的重要象征和表现维度。文章历史接收日期:2022年7月8日接受日期:2023年1月20日

Murray-Darling Basin Plan mark II. What should stakeholders plan for? 墨累-达令盆地计划II。利益相关者应该计划什么?

ABSTRACT The revised Murray-Darling Basin Plan is scheduled for 2026. Given the Plans complexity, and issues involved in the revision it is worth asking what will be the main drivers of change? What changes can reasonably be anticipated? What preparations should stakeholders make for their engagement in the planning process? As we move towards the next Basin Plan, there are multiple wheels in motion that could shape the future. Several factors we anticipate being important are examined. Our aim is to stimulate stakeholders to think about and prepare for major contingencies that could affect their interests. We focus on those that will likely affect water availability, and changes in policy and water-governance by public agencies. We take the starting point that rivers are complex social-ecological systems, within which structural circumstances and forms of social capital will affect individuals’ and communities’ abilities to maximise what they achieve from their natural assets, and their resilience to unfavourable contingencies. We conclude with some observations about how stakeholders might strengthen their ability to respond to opportunities or threats. While the future is always uncertain and all planning processes are flawed, how stakeholders conceive of and respond to today’s challenges will substantially affect their capacity to be resilient.

Water quality risks in the Murray-Darling basin 墨累-达令流域的水质风险

ABSTRACT Management of water resources in the Murray-Darling Basin has historically focussed on water security and the allocation of water for users with competing needs. This focus was reflected in the seminal paper on multiple risks to shared water across the basin by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation 15 years ago. That paper captured key concerns that were at the forefront for decision-makers, managers and policy-makers who were, at that time, experiencing the early impacts of the Millennium Drought. Water quality, then, was secondary to the issues of water security. Across the following years, new water quality risks have emerged along with a more nuanced understanding of the complex interplay between climate, floodplain/catchment vegetation, hydrology, and water quality. Critically, this improved understanding applies to the systemic shocks of extreme events, such as the 2020 bushfires and hypoxic blackwater events, as well as the variability, duration and volumes of natural and regulated river flows. In this paper, we explore the key water quality issues that currently face the Basin, and reframe water quality as an integral rather than incidental component of the risks to shared water in the Basin, with the associated implications for policy development that this implies.
摘要墨累-达令盆地的水资源管理历来侧重于水安全和为有竞争需求的用户分配水资源。这一重点反映在英联邦科学与工业研究组织关于整个流域共享水的多重风险的开创性论文中15 几年前。该文件反映了当时正经历千年干旱早期影响的决策者、管理者和决策者最关心的关键问题。因此,水质是水安全问题的次要问题。在接下来的几年里,随着对气候、洪泛平原/集水区植被、水文和水质之间复杂相互作用的更细致理解,出现了新的水质风险。至关重要的是,这种理解的提高适用于极端事件的系统性冲击,如2020年的丛林大火和缺氧黑水事件,以及自然和调节河流流量的可变性、持续时间和流量。在本文中,我们探讨了流域目前面临的关键水质问题,并将水质重新定义为流域共享水风险的一个组成部分,而不是偶然的组成部分,以及这对政策制定的相关影响。

ABSTRACT Risks to shared water resources in the Murray–Darling Basin are reviewed after the report by CSIRO on the same topic in 2006. CSIRO outlined six major risks to shared water resources in the Basin. Herein, six groups of researchers have reviewed the risks of climate change, forest growth, groundwater, water infrastructure, water quality, and governance. These reviews bring an updated understanding of risk assessment and management that can contribute to the forthcoming reviews of the Water Act and Basin Plan in 2024–26. Drawing on these six papers, the authors synthesise knowledge of the risks to shared water resources and identify policy and management options and information gaps. We find that few risk factors have decreased in significance. Most risks remain and new risks are identified. Water managers must plan for a significant decrease in water availability and governments need to actively manage these risks under conditions of increasing uncertainty.
摘要在2006年CSIRO关于同一主题的报告之后,对墨累-达令盆地共享水资源的风险进行了审查。CSIRO概述了该流域共享水资源的六大风险。在此,六组研究人员回顾了气候变化、森林生长、地下水、水基础设施、水质和治理的风险。这些审查带来了对风险评估和管理的最新了解,有助于2024-26年即将进行的《水法》和《流域计划》审查。根据这六篇论文,作者综合了共享水资源风险的知识,并确定了政策和管理选择以及信息差距。我们发现,很少有风险因素的显著性降低。大多数风险仍然存在,并发现了新的风险。水资源管理者必须为水资源的大幅减少做好计划,政府需要在不确定性增加的情况下积极管理这些风险。

Forests, fire and vegetation change impacts on Murray-Darling basin water resources 森林、火灾和植被变化对墨累-达令盆地水资源的影响

ABSTRACT The Murray-Darling River system is perhaps Australia’s most important, with significant social, cultural and environmental values including 16 Ramsar listed wetlands. The MDB is home to 2.6 million people and produces about $24 billion worth in agricultural production each year (about one-third of total value for Australia). Hydrologic issues, typified by water availability and quality, have existed for many years, peaking during the Millennium drought from 1997 to 2010. Competing interests (i.e. irrigation, tourism, environmental heath), and the declining flows and water quality during droughts, led governments and water management agencies to consider the risks to water resources in the system in the early-mid 2000s. This paper reviews changes to risks associated with forest dynamics, as identified by - afforestation and bushfire – and considers new issues that have emerged since that analysis. It was found that the potential impacts of bushfire on stream flows were over-estimated in past studies, and that a planned significant afforestation expansion into agricultural and grazing land that was projected to reduce stream flows did not occur. While these two risks now do not seem likely to have significant future impacts on flows, or consequent effects on downstream users, the interaction of elevated CO2 and increasing temperatures on vegetation functioning and subsequent hydrologic consequences at catchment scale require further research and analysis. Reduced rainfall and increased temperatures under future climate change are likely to have an impact on inputs and flows. Uncertainties in how these changes, and feedbacks between climate, drought, more frequent fire and vegetation responses, impact on system hydrology also require further investigation.
摘要墨累-达令河水系可能是澳大利亚最重要的水系,具有重要的社会、文化和环境价值,包括16个列入拉姆萨尔湿地名录的湿地。MDB拥有260万人口,每年生产价值约240亿美元的农业产品(约占澳大利亚总价值的三分之一)。以水的可用性和质量为代表的水文问题已经存在多年,在1997年至2010年的千年干旱期间达到顶峰。在21世纪初中期,相互竞争的利益(即灌溉、旅游、环境卫生),以及干旱期间流量和水质的下降,导致政府和水管理机构考虑系统中水资源的风险。本文回顾了造林和森林大火等与森林动态相关的风险变化,并考虑了自该分析以来出现的新问题。研究发现,在过去的研究中,山火对溪流流量的潜在影响被高估了,而且没有计划将大规模植树造林扩展到农业和牧场,以减少溪流流量。虽然这两种风险现在似乎不太可能对流量产生重大的未来影响,或对下游用户产生后续影响,但二氧化碳升高和温度升高对植被功能的相互作用以及随后在集水区范围内的水文后果需要进一步的研究和分析。未来气候变化下的降雨量减少和气温升高可能会对投入和流量产生影响。这些变化的不确定性,以及气候、干旱、更频繁的火灾和植被反应之间的反馈,对系统水文的影响,也需要进一步调查。

Water governance, the rule of law and regulating risks to the Murray–Darling Basin 墨累-达令盆地的水治理、法治与风险调控
IF 3.2 Q2 Environmental Science Pub Date : 2022-12-26 DOI: 10.1080/13241583.2022.2161143

ABSTRACT In Australia’s Murray – Darling Basin (MDB), the law explicitly requires strategies for managing risks to water quality and quantity. In this paper, we analyse water governance in the Basin, identifying inadequate governance standards and practices. Current arrangements in the MDB demonstrate deficiencies and vulnerabilities that limit capabilities for dealing with known or emerging risks and erode the legitimacy of governing institutions. Our analysis of the problems and opportunities for reform is informed by the OECD’s principles of good water governance and the legal concept of the rule of law. We conclude that ignoring opportunities to adopt better-practice water governance is a severe risk to the MDB’s shared waters. To overcome reactionary crisis-reaction reform, we propose reforms that empower critical evaluations of governance structures, rules, practices and participation. Therefore, proposed reforms of policy, institutions and legislation do not simply attempt one-off changes to enhance transparency and accountability but instead seek to enshrine processes of continuous, ongoing improvements to water governance.
摘要在澳大利亚墨累-达令盆地(MDB),法律明确要求制定管理水质和水量风险的策略。在本文中,我们分析了流域的水治理,找出了治理标准和实践不足的地方。多边发展银行目前的安排显示出不足和脆弱性,限制了应对已知或新出现风险的能力,并削弱了管理机构的合法性。我们对改革问题和机遇的分析是根据经合组织的良好水治理原则和法治的法律概念进行的。我们得出的结论是,忽视采用更好的水治理实践的机会对多边开发银行的共享水域来说是一个严重的风险。为了克服反动的危机反应改革,我们建议进行改革,增强对治理结构、规则、做法和参与的批判性评估。因此,拟议的政策、机构和立法改革并不是简单地尝试一次性的改革,以提高透明度和问责制,而是寻求将持续、持续改进水治理的过程写入其中。

ABSTRACT The Australian Government has committed to water reform, including safeguarding the Murray Darling Basin, providing an opportunity to examine legal responses to water scarcity and environmental degradation that are developing globally and being used to influence how rivers are managed or protected. Using a conceptual framework that links socio-legal analysis to theories of ‘institutional work’, this paper analyses the development of transnational water norms like The Human Right to Water and Rights for Rivers, highlights the institutional work of local actors and the role of transnational water norms in that work, and uses the Productivity Commission’s National Water Reform 2020 Inquiry Report to examine opportunities for water reform in Australia.

ABSTRACT Climate change introduces greater complexity to water resources planning, requiring techniques suited to increased future uncertainties. In Australia’s Murray Darling Basin, governments formally recognised climate risk in 2002 and legislated science-based climate risk assessment in 2007. Since then, research has helped clarify the significance of climate change impacts on catchments, riverine ecosystems and water resources. This paper offers a review of climate risk assessments undertaken over the past two decades and outlines research needs and policy options while noting there are no simple solutions given the systemic nature of climate risks. Water resource planning and climate risk assessment need to handle non-stationarity and post-natural Anthropocene conditions. These methods should integrate biophysical and socio-economic modelling, increase stakeholder participation in developing and testing policy options and codify standards and procedures for transparency.
气候变化给水资源规划带来了更大的复杂性,需要适应未来不确定性增加的技术。在澳大利亚的墨累达令盆地,政府于2002年正式承认了气候风险,并于2007年立法制定了基于科学的气候风险评估。从那时起,研究已经帮助阐明了气候变化对集水区、河流生态系统和水资源影响的重要性。本文回顾了过去二十年进行的气候风险评估,概述了研究需求和政策选择,同时指出,鉴于气候风险的系统性,没有简单的解决方案。水资源规划和气候风险评估需要处理非平稳性和后自然人类世条件。这些方法应结合生物物理和社会经济模型,增加利益攸关方参与制定和测试政策选择,并编纂透明度标准和程序。
