Climate change and biodiversity in the Murray Basin NRM Cluster region – how will it affect your region?


This fact sheet reviews the current literature to identify potential impacts on biodiversity in the Murray Basin NRM Cluster. The fact sheet provides information about what these changes might look like on terrestrial and aquatic systems, soil communities and pests and diseases. It also discusses species movements under climate change and provides some simple adaptation options to help manage change.
