Abstract

Strategic management of Commonwealth environmental water by the Commonwealth Environmental Water Holder (CEWH) is key to achieving the Commonwealth’s (Murray–Darling) Basin Plan 2012 (Basin Plan) environmental objectives. Longer-term targets identified in the Basin Plan, to measure progress towards the overall environmental objectives for water-dependent ecosystems, include improvements in recruitment and populations of native fish. The CEWH’s Basin-scale Monitoring, Evaluation and Research Program (Flow-MER) aims to demonstrate Basin-scale outcomes of Commonwealth environmental water, support adaptive management, and fulfil CEWH legislative requirements under the Basin Plan.
The evaluation presented here describes the fish outcomes across the Basin from the use of Commonwealth environmental water for 2022–23, as well as the cumulative outcomes since monitoring
began, as part of earlier iterations of the program in 2014–15. This information is used to answer the following evaluation question:
What did Commonwealth environmental water contribute to sustaining native fish at the Basin scale?
