Furthermore, the future modelling challenges of the social and economic impacts of the sustainable diversion limits (SDLs)�such as data availability, and the methods and objectives of modelling�will be identified, together with a review of existing modelling work within the Basin. To meet these challenges, the Australian Government should systematically facilitate researchers to accumulate the relevant basin data, or allow them access to their current basin data.14 pagesapplication/pdfen-AUAuthor/s retain copyright201110.22459/BF.05.2011.162020-11-22
