Measuring Water Use at the Catchment Scale for South Eastern Australia
Location
Murray Darling basin, Australia
Contractor
Sinclair Knight Merz (SKM)
Period
2009-present
The amount of water used by different land cover types at catchment scale is the great unknown in catchment water balances. To determine the water use at catchment scale and for different land use types within the catchment, a project was started using SEBAL and satellite data. The project aims at demonstrating the effectiveness of SEBAL for a selection of typical land uses in Australia.
