Decision support tools that aim to assist efficient integrated water resources management should integrate the multiple, interdependent uses of water. There exist, however, few models that assess the trade-offs between environmental and socio-economic impacts of water management changes in an integrated framework. This paper presents a model that integrates hydrological, ecological and economic information in a Bayesian Network modelling framework. A suite of modeling tools was developed to assess the biophysical and economic impacts of catchment management scenarios, for a case study in Tasmania, Australia. We describe how the models are integrated in a Bayesian Network that shows the economic and ecological trade-offs of different catchment management options. The integrated Bayesian Network model demonstrates a flexible approach to incorporate different types of data and explicitly accounts for accumulated uncertainty in information.
