Why a new modelling system?
Current models struggling to handle 21C complexity
Policy
Operations
Climate
Nationally consistent capability, integrating:
Cities, irrigation, hydroelectricity & environment
Conjunctive surface-water & ground-water use
Sub-catchment to Basin scales
Data rich and data poor settings
Planning and operational requirements
