Durack A project commissioned by the Victorian Greenhouse Unit Victorian Department of Sustainability and Environment © CSIRO Australia 2005 Estimating the Impacts of Climate Change on Victoria’s Runoff using a Hydrological Sensitivity Model Jones, R.N. and Durack, P.J. CSIRO Atmospheric Research, Melbourne ISBN 0 643 09246 3 Acknowledgments: The Greenhouse Unit of the Government of Victoria is gratefully acknowledged for commissioning and encouraging this work. Dr Francis Chiew and Dr Walter Boughton are thanked for their work in running the SIMHYD and AWBM models for 22 catchments across Australia in the precursor to this work here. Without their efforts, this project would not have been possible. Rod Anderson, Jennifer Cane, Rae Moran and Penny Whetton are thanked for their extensive and insightful comments. The Commonwealth of Australia through the National Land Water Resources Assessment 1997–2001 are also acknowledged for the source data on catchment characteristics and the descriptions used in individual catchment entries. Climate scenarios and programming contributing to this project were undertaken by Janice Bathols and Jim Ricketts. This work has been developed from the results of numerous studies on the hydrological impacts of climate change in Australia funded by the Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation, the Australian Greenhouse Office, Melbourne Water, North-east Water and the Queensland Government. Collaborations with other CSIRO scientists and with the CRC for Catchment Hydrology have also been vital in carrying out this research.

  • A Rivers of the West Act
    A Rivers of the West Act Draft proposals to protect and restore Melbourne’s western rivers and waterways and to defend the liveability of the West www.envirojustice.org.au Rivers of the West – Community workshop: Draft proposals 1 Executive Summary This report calls for the Victorian Parliament to enact legislation for the protection and restoration of rivers and waterways of Melbourne’s west. This Rivers of the West Act would be intended not only to establish a long-term framework to achieve healthy waterways but also to establish a new model of urban design that integrates natural places into community life, deepen accountability in decision- making and contribute to reconciliation with Indigenous communities. Legislative reform directed to protection of key environmental assets in the West concerns the liveability, well-being and public benefits available to communities in the West. In short, protection and restoration of the rivers and waterways of the west is a matter of environmental and social justice. The Act would adapt and build on measures now implemented in legislation for the Yarra River, such as legislated river protection principles, preparation of long-term landscape-scale strategic plans, and establishment of independent institutions to manage rivers and affected land. Expansion on the approach taken under the Yarra River Act would include formulation of landscape connectivity and guardianship principles for river management. The Act would require preparation of strategic plans for each key waterway in the West but also an overarching ‘biolinks’ framework to facilitate restoration across the landscapes of the West. Aboriginal ‘country planning’ would be integrated into this approach.
