Brief description

Microinvertebrates are measured as part of the food-web monitoring of the Commonwealth Environmental Water Holder’s (CEWH) Flow-MER program in wetlands and rivers of the Murrumbidgee river system, Gwydir river system and the junction of the Warrego and Darling rivers. The data set includes measures of abundance as density/litre with pragmatic identification into higher taxonomic groups where species identification is not practical.

The CEWH’s Flow-MER program examines the contribution of Commonwealth environmental water to the environmental objectives of the Basin Plan 2012 (Basin Plan) and is assisting the CEWH to demonstrate environmental outcomes and adaptively manage the water holdings. Monitoring and evaluation is focused in seven Selected Areas: the Junction of the Warrego and Darling rivers, Gwydir river system, Lachlan river system, Murrumbidgee river system, Edward/Kolety-Wakool river system, Goulburn River and Lower Murray River.

This Flow-MER data set includes and extends the long-term data collected at the same sites during the Long Term Intervention Monitoring (LTIM) project (2014-2019).


###Acknowledgement

The Commonwealth Environmental Water Holder and Flow-MER program acknowledges the First Nations peoples as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands, waterways and skies of the Murray-Darling Basin. We thank them for their knowledge and science and respect their continuing connection to culture and Country and the values reflected in these data.
