Abstract

The Commonwealth Environmental Water Office (CEWO) Monitoring, Evaluation and Research (Flow-MER) Program (2019 to 2022) is an extension of the Long-Term Intervention Monitoring (LTIM) and Murray-Darling Basin Environmental Water Knowledge and Research Project (EWKR) projects, with monitoring, evaluation and research activities undertaken within a single integrated program.

The Flow-MER Program provides the critical evidence that is required to understand how water for the environment is helping maintain, protect, and restore the ecosystems and native species across the Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) and informs management of Commonwealth water for the environment.

The Flow-MER Program consists of evaluation, research and engagement at a Basin-scale and monitoring, evaluation, research and engagement across seven Selected Areas within the MDB.

This report summarises the key outcomes of monitoring and evaluation, research, communications and engagement that were undertaken in the Edward/Kolety-Wakool (EKW) Selected Area in 2020-21.

Further details are available in a Technical Report (Watts et al. 2021). This project was undertaken as a collaboration between Charles Sturt University, NSW DPI (Fisheries), NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment, and La Trobe University. The turtle research was undertaken in partnershipwith Yarkuwa Indigenous Knowledge Centre Aboriginal Corporation.
