Whats the geographic scope?
The broad SEACI study area covers the Murray-Darling Basin, all of Victoria and parts of South Australia, including the agricultural areas of Eyre Peninsula. This reflects the areas of interest for the funding partners of the initiative. Depending on the complexity of the research involved, some sub-projects will cover the whole study area while others have a more specific geographic focus. Through the involvement of the Murray-Darling Basin Authority, all states within the Basin have invested in and will benefit from the SEACI research program. The State of Victoria has an increased investment in SEACI beyond its MDBA involvement, by also being an independent partner of SEACI through the Department of Sustainability and Environment.
