“…Degradation, already apparent on account of water resource development (Thoms and Sheldon, 2000;Leigh and Sheldon, 2008;Shaeri Karimi et al, 2021), has undermined the resilience of freshwater ecosystems to cope with extreme droughts (Colloff and Baldwin 2010;Sandi et al, 2020). Improving the likelihood of meeting environmental restoration targets, under a likely drying future requires substantial and urgent transformative strategies (Smith et al, 2011) for the upcoming review of the Basin Plan in 2026 (Gawne et al, 2021). The Basin's waterbirds are indicators of the freshwater ecosystems and leave two options to consider in order to meet restoration and avoid possible collapse: 1) Increase water allocations for the environment and improve management effectiveness tailored to waterbird life histories such as opportunities for breeding and improved habitat quality or 2) reduce restoration targets for waterbirds for the Basin-wide environmental watering strategy set to be reviewed in 2022 while observing ongoing declines.…”
