We use the Budyko framework to calculate catchment‐scale evapotranspiration (E) and
runoff (Q) as a function of two climatic factors, precipitation (P) and evaporative demand …

While the majority of hydrological prediction methods assume that observed interannual
variability explores the full range of catchment response dynamics, recent cases of …

The Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) in south-eastern Australia has been in the grip of a serious
drought for over a decade. Recent reductions in runoff have been unprecedented in the …

We assess hydroclimatic projections for the Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB) using an ensemble
of 39 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change AR4 climate model runs based on the …

The recent drought in the southern Murray‐Darling Basin has seen a larger reduction in
annual runoff in many places compared to historical droughts with similar annual rainfall …

Hydrological models play vital roles in understanding and management of surface water
resources. The physically based distributed model Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) …

Since the mid-1990s the majority of Victoria, Australia, has experienced severe drought
conditions (ie the" Big Dry") characterized by streamflow that is the lowest in approximately …

We present an experimental reconstruction of River Murray streamflow to assess present‐
day variations in the context of the past two centuries. Nine annually resolved paleoclimate …

In south-western Australia, significant declines in annual rainfall in recent decades have
been accompanied by even greater declines in annual streamflow. The disproportionate …

Droughts are set to increase in frequency and magnitude with climate change and water
extraction, and understanding their influence on ecosystems is urgent in the Holocene. Low …
