Extended Data Fig. 6: Baseline river flows compared with water resource development scenarios.

From: Integrated assessment of river development on downstream marine fisheries and ecosystems

Extended Data Fig. 6

Total annual end-of-system flow (GL/year) for (a) Mitchell River, (b) Gilbert River and (c) Flinders River, comparing baseline flows with alternative WRD settings (see Fig. 1b) used to evaluate the influences of alterations to the natural flows on population dynamics and catches of key species (see Supplementary Table 11 for full list of WRDs tested). Note that the model inputs weekly flows and hence the annual aggregated plots do not show shorter time scale variability that is used to inform the MICE. The vertical axes have different scales in these plots to be able to see differences more easily when compared with baseline levels.
