Transport of salt, nutrients, other dissolved and particulate material through the Murray River (Lock 1 to southern ocean) Increased salt transport and export; Increased sediment/nutrient transport; Providing end of system flows The modelling outputs suggest that during 2013-14, environmental watering resulted in significant increases in the transport and export of salt, nutrients, chlorophyll (phytoplankton) and suspended solids through the Lower Murray River, Lower Lakes and Murray Mouth. A majority of the total exports were achieved during an unregulated flow event (July to October) prior to the period of environmental water delivery. However, thereafter the additional exports were almost entirely associated with environmental water deliveries and overall environmental water contributed up to 45% of total exports of dissolved and particulate matter. It was evident that both CEW and TLM environmental water contributed to the transport and export of dissolved and particulate matter, although a majority was associated with CEW due to greater volumes of water provided in 2013-14. Did CEW delivery in 2013-14 contribute to the transport of salt, nutrients and dissolved and particulate matter through the Murray Mouth? CEW resulted in significant increases in the transport and export of salt, nutrients, chlorophyll (phytoplankton) and suspended solids through the Lower Murray River, Lower Lakes and Murray Mouth. Coorong modelling to evaluate environmental water benefits to Ruppia tuberosa and fish habitat Increased hydrological connectivity; Reduced salinity; Providing end of system flows; Increased within ecosystem diversity; R. tuberosa: Environmental watering in 2013-14 resulted in a significant increase in the chance of propagule bank replenishment for the North Lagoon of the Coorong compared to the model outputs without environmental water. However, environmental water delivery made little difference to the chance of propagule bank replenishment in the South Lagoon. Did CEW delivery in 2013-14 provide benefits for R. tuberosa and fish habitat in the Coorong? CEW resulted in a significant increase in the chance of propagule bank replenishment for the North Lagoon of the Coorong and improved habitat suitability for fish.

As above As above Age of golden perch lavae and (YOY) Spatial origin of golden perch lavae and YOY using otolith chemistry Golden perch that recruited to the lower River Murray in 2012 were generally not spawned in association with the delivery of Commonwealth environmental water to the lower Murray channel. Nevertheless, substantial volumes (4,000–5,000 ML d-1) of environmental water delivered down the Darling River from January–February 2012 would have aided the downstream dispersal of early life stage golden perch spawned in the Darling and the subsequent recruitment of these fish in the lower Murray Salt and nutrient transport and export (water quality and nutrient cycling) Increased flows will transport salt through the River Murray and export the salts from the system, providing sufficient flow out of the Murray Mouth Increased flows will transport nutrients through the River Murray, Lower Lakes and Coorong, stimulating primary productivity Salt transport – Lock 1 to Southern Ocean Nutrient transport – Lock 1 to Southern Ocean By model A significant reduction in salinity levels in the Northern Coorong. The greatest influence was observed during February 2012, with modelling suggesting that salinity was reduced by up to 70% in the Northern Coorong) Increased export of salt and particulate organic nutrients to the Southern Ocean associated with environmental water releases, which were associated with elevated outflows through the Murray Mouth and reduced seawater incursions. The greatest influence was observed during February 2012, with modelling suggesting that environmental water accounted for 70% of the total salt exports and 50% of the particulate organic nutrient exports from the Murray Mouth 1b.

A bacteria can also go through exponential growth as shown below. The only is how fast the organism can reproduce. Exponential growth only occurs occasionally. In the transition or linear growth phase, the increase will slow down until it reaches zero. This occurs when the environment suddenly changes and only a few individuals survive. Interspecies competition results, where the strong survive. This is when the habitat has reached its carrying capacity. As a population increases, it begins to experience environmental resistance, because and resources are reduced and competition for space and resources increases. If the numbers start to increase above carry capacity, shortage of resources reduces the numbers of offspring produced and the population regulates itself at the carry capacity. If the population is reduced, by heavy predation, for example, the additional resources that then become available lead to an increase in reproductive rate, and the carrying capacity is again reached. In other words, the populations tend to be self-regulating. Take for example, humans over the years.

CONSUMER AND PRODUCER SURPLUS Total Consumer Surplus Sum of economic surplus of all consumers Total Producer Surplus Sum of economic surplus of all producers Total Surplus Sum of consumer surplus and total producer surplus In a perfectly competitive market, Total Surplus is maximised exactly at the equilibrium price P*
The losers of this policy are all those harmed by the price floor CONSUMERS & PRODUCERS Solution: the ‘losers’ would be willing to pay the ‘winners’ the exact amount they gained from the intervention in exchange for cancelling the price floor Pareto Improving Transaction Taxation Unlike price ceiling/floor, a tax generates tax revenues Tax revenues can be used to redistribute wealth within a society Improves the distribution of Income & Opportunities across different population groups Say we tax producers Who the tax burden? Losers of this policy are: Consumers & producers (Price increases, Quantity decreases) Or Consumers (if D = inelastic OR S = perfectly elastic)
Expected price: 33.3 If seller has zero value, equal split of price, consumer surplus. With three bidders Expected value of winner: 75 and Expected price: 50 With more demand, expected value creation is higher and seller is able to capture a higher price (and p/value?). With 10 bidders, exp. value of winner is 10/11, exp. price is 9/11 of 100. Second Price Auction Bidders submit sealed bids. Seller the bids. Bidder who submitted the highest bid wins. Winner pays the second highest bid. How should you bid? Claim. An optimal strategy in the second price auction (regardless of what opponents do) is to bid your value. Proof Compare bidding v to bidding some b > v. Only way the higher bid matters is if opponent bid is above but less than b. Then you lose if you bid v and win if you bid b, but you pay above your value. So better to have bid v. Compare bidding v to bidding some b < v. Only way the lower bid matters is if opponent bid is above b but less than v. Then you lose if you bid b and win if you bid v. So bidding v is better – you win and pay less than your value. In equilibrium, everyone bids value. Bidder with highest value wins. Pays an amount equal to second highest value. Exactly the same as the ascending auction! Same winner, same price/revenue. Example: three bidders with values 25, 33, 75. Winner has value 75, pays 33, as in ascending auction. Vickrey Auction

Less labor per unit of capital Approximately the same level as developing countries Recent events have led some observers to suggest that the European Central Bank should buy large quantities of bonds . We should expect to see: Bond prices go down. Interest go up Neither a nor b Both a and b GNP in Country will be larger than GDP if Country X lets immigrants freely enter the country and they send money home Country X lets foreign companies mine gold Country X earns profits on stock holdings in country Y All of the above None of the Which of the following arguments is correct and also does NOT support free immigration? The free flow of labor changes the skill distribution in the target country. The inflow of unskilled labor can take jobs away from low-skilled and low-income locals, increasing unemployment The free flow of labor decreases inefficiency and therefore decreases world output. More immigrants mean more workers which means the PPF is pushed out. All of above None of above Only A & B When U.S. prices are rising relative to those in the rest of the world: U.S exports tend to decrease. U.S exports tend to increase. U.S imports tend to decrease.
