This report is the first deliverable of the Independent Scientific Hydroclimate Expert Panel (IHSEP), under Terms of Reference that were agreed with the Strategic Hydroclimate Working Group (SHWG) of the Murray–Darling Basin Officials Committee (BOC) and the Murray–Darling Basin Authority (MDBA).
IHSEP was established in late 2023 to provide advice on hydroclimate approaches to meet identified policy and planning needs, in particular to guide the second Murray–Darling Basin Sustainable Yields Project (SY2) that will inform the first Basin Plan Review.
The report reviews past efforts to assess hydroclimatic variability and change in the Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) and to generate hydroclimate projections for water resources modelling to inform water planning and policy formulation. The review is limited to consideration of work undertaken by MDB state agencies and the MDBA that is relevant to MDB water planning and policy. The report evaluates the fitness-for-purpose of these approaches for facilitating the water resources modelling that will be undertaken to inform the Basin Plan Review. Fitness-for-purpose is assessed in terms of a series of desirable characteristics that consider the technical robustness and the utility of approaches. In conducting the review, IHSEP has been guided by principles of independence, transparency, collaboration, science quality, and effective communication.
