Hmmm... I am afraid that ultimately your question would have to be answered with another question. I suppose it all depends on where along or across the river you are measuring. Where? --

South Australia is a very dry state. Annual rainfall is low, and there are few permanent rivers. The Murray River is the lifeblood of the state, enabling irrigation of crops and fruit trees along its length. The Murray is a permanent river, fed by dozens of other rivers in Victoria and New South Wales, as well as by floodwaters originating in Queensland. There are numerous dams and pipelines along the Murray which take water from the river to the major settlements, not only for agriculture but also for home use.
The River Murray takes many turns and twists along its path. Generally, it flows in a westerly direction from its start to Morgan. Here it takes a bend and flows south to the Murray Mouth near the South Australian town of Goolwa.
