Title: The Nile Basin Cooperative Framework Agreement: a peacefully unfolding African spring? 
Abstract:
	      Disputes between Egypt and Sudan on the one hand and the Nile
 upper riparians on the other hand have dominated the Nile Basin for the
 last half-century. Nevertheless, there have been attempts at cooperation,
 and they culminated in the establishment of the Nile Basin Initiative and
 negotiation of the Nile Basin Cooperative Framework Agreement (CFA).
 Ironically, the CFA resulted in solidification of the areas of differences
 and the emergence of the upper riparians as a power to be reckoned with.
 This article discusses the areas of difference over the CFA and analyzes
 its current status and the prospects for cooperation.

Title: International river basin organizations: variation, options and insights 
Abstract:
	      Permanent international river basin organizations (IRBOs)
 come in many shapes and sizes, ranging from those which are mainly
 facilitative in nature to those empowered to act on their own. Although
 differences in IRBO types may have important impacts on transboundary
 water resources management, systematic analysis of variation in their
 structure and responsibilities is scant. This paper synthesizes and
 applies a typology to determine the structural composition, abundance,
 spatial distribution, scale and in-basin configurations of the different
 forms of IRBOs. The results provide a set of options for future IRBOs, and
 serve to ground-truth and nuance theoretical divisions between different
 types of organizations in transboundary basins.

Title: Using GPS and recall to understand water collection in Kenyan informal settlements 
Abstract:
	      This paper uses interviews and Global Positioning System
 (GPS) loggers to measure the time taken to collect water in two large
 informal settlements in Kenyan cities. Collection times were measured, and
 collection paths mapped, in two low-income urban settlements, comparing
 water access conditions in Nyalenda in Kisumu (where the utility has
 introduced a new piped water system) with Kibera in Nairobi (where no such
 improvement has been made). The use of GPS tracking provides a better
 understanding of time spent collecting water compared to interview data,
 but the two methods combined provide insights that neither could have
 suggested alone.

Title: Regional variability of disinfection by-products in Canadian drinking water 
Abstract:
	      The chlorination of drinking water forms various disinfection
 by-products (DBPs), some of which present potential risks to humans. This
 study investigates occurrences, trends, and regional and seasonal
 variability of DPBs in two Canadian provinces: Ontario and Quebec. The
 findings demonstrate that trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids
 (HAAs) can be represented better by region-based analysis than by
 province-based analysis. THMs in summer months are much higher than in
 cold months, while HAAs show variable results. The seasonal and regional
 variability of DBPs can have implications for the selection of DBP
 sampling locations, sampling frequency, regulatory limitations of DBPs,
 exposure analysis and risk characterization.

Title: Water quality assessment at a global scale: a comparison between world regions 
Abstract:
	      This paper examines the state of global drinking water
 quality using the Global Drinking Water Quality Index (GDWQI) for
 freshwater ecosystems. We compared the state of water quality in the five
 major world regions over 30 years by using a database provided by the
 GEMS/Water Programme of the United Nations Environment Program Global
 Environment Monitoring System. This global monitoring database is unique
 in the world and consists of raw, real data, not modelled data as is
 typical for many global water assessments. Our findings confirm the
 applicability of the GDWQI to better communicate changes in water quality
 trends and therefore help to improve decision-making processes worldwide.

Title: ABCDE+F: a framework for thinking about water resources management 
Abstract:
	      There is a widely observable pattern of what must be done to
 make water management consistent with expressed policy: physical
 accounting for water; a political process of priority setting; rules that
 reflect policy and define responsibilities; and appropriate engineering
 works. When things change - due to climate, privatization, or the building
 of a new dam - feedback mechanisms affect most components of the system.
 The classification of functions as Accounting, Bargaining, Codification,
 Delegation and Engineering (ABCDE) provides all the concerned disciplines
 with a place at the table. Feedback (F) among these elements is the basis
 for planning the future, addressing problems, or responding to change.

Title: Utilization of shared international freshwater resources - the meaning and role of "equity" in international water law 
Abstract:
	      The principle of equitable and reasonable utilization is the
 predominant normative rule of international law relating to the
 utilization of international water resources. Hence, allocation of state
 rights in the use of an international watercourse has long been based on
 the somewhat nebulous concept of equity. This article investigates the
 meaning and role of equity. It argues that one reason for confusion about
 equity in international water law is that it has historically been invoked
 in relation to a number of different roles, ranging from that of a
 substantive rule of water apportionment to that of ensuring procedural
 fairness.

Title: Does Article 6 (Factors Relevant to Equitable and Reasonable Utilization) in the UN Watercourses Convention misdirect riparian countries? 
Abstract:
	      The "factors relevant to equitable and reasonable
 utilization" of a watercourse expressed in Article 6 of the UN
 Watercourses Convention were incorporated into an Excel model using an
 analytical hierarchy process to examine how the article guides water
 allocation between countries within transboundary basins. This model was
 employed in training from 2008 to 2011 with scientists from transboundary
 basins including the Limpopo and Zambezi Rivers. Contrasting these results
 with those from a model designed to explore water sharing from a
 sectoral-growth perspective indicates that Article 6, in its current
 formulation, cannot guide adjustments to current water shares between
 countries.

Title: The UN Watercourses Convention: the <italic>éminence grise</italic> behind cooperation on transboundary water resources 
Abstract:
	      The indisputable accomplishment of the UN Watercourses
 Convention (UNWC) is the promotion of general principles of international
 water law at the universal level. For states sharing freshwater resources,
 cooperation is indispensable for achieving equitable and reasonable
 utilization, preventing significant harm and protecting shared ecosystems.
 The UNWC highlights this importance through the comprehensive codification
 of cooperation obligations and explicit recognition of the duty to
 cooperate as one of the general principles of international water law.
 This article traces the genesis of this recognition and highlights the
 convention's invaluable contribution in promoting international
 cooperation in the management of transboundary water resources.

Title: The preservation of freshwater ecosystems of international watercourses and the integration of rules - an interpretative mechanism 
Abstract:
	      This paper proposes a framework for the operationalization of
 Article 31(3)(c) of the Vienna Convention to guide an interpretation of
 the obligation to preserve ecosystems of international watercourses under
 the 1997 UN Watercourses Convention together with the relevant
 environmental protection provisions in the Ramsar and Biodiversity
 Conventions. An interpretation of the obligation to preserve freshwater
 ecosystems that takes into account subsequent development in other
 relevant treaty regimes reinforces international legal understanding on
 the preservation of ecosystems and strengthens the normativity of the
 obligation to preserve.

Title: Article 33 of the UN Watercourses Convention: a step forward for dispute settlement? 
Abstract:
	      With the prospect of the imminent entry into force of the UN
 Watercourses Convention (UNWC), its complex dispute-settlement mechanisms
 may soon become operational. This article argues that Article 33, in
 combination with the UNWC's procedural provisions on cooperation, provides
 for a comprehensive and "integrated" toolbox in the prevention, management
 and settlement of water disputes, which may become an important point of
 reference for states engaged in long-standing and otherwise intractable
 water disputes.

Title: A new human rights-based approach to the UN Watercourses Convention 
Abstract:
	      The UN Secretary-General's Advisory Board on Water and
 Sanitation calls on governments to ratify and implement the 1997 UN
 Watercourses Convention (UNWC) in accordance with Target 7C of the
 Millennium Development Goals concerning the provision of sufficient water
 to sustain human life. This call makes clear the dynamic interaction
 between two different legal regimes: human rights and international water
 law. With a view to enhancing the interaction between these two regimes,
 this paper proposes a new human rights-based approach to the
 interpretation of UNWC founded upon a state's positive obligations.

Title: The influence of the UN Watercourses Convention on the development of a treaty regime in the Nile River basin 
Abstract:
	      This paper explores how the UN Watercourses Convention (UNWC)
 has impacted the development of the Nile River Basin Cooperative Framework
 Agreement (CFA). The role of the UNWC regarding issues of conflict and
 cooperation in the Nile River basin prefaces a comparative analysis of the
 work of the International Law Commission (ILC), the UN General Assembly
 (UNGA) and the CFA concerning the most controversial legal issues therein.
 This paper concludes that the work of the ILC and the UNGA on the UNWC
 will continue to influence the emerging watercourse agreement in the Nile
 Basin.

Abstract:
	      This article analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the
 Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) in light of the UN Watercourses Convention. The
 IWT is, to a large extent, still relevant but must incorporate
 contemporary environmental standards and the social realities that are
 impacting water resources. Proposals for improving the IWT include the
 incorporation of provisions related to joint research initiatives, optimal
 use of available resources through mutually negotiated trade-offs, a joint
 climate change adaptation strategy, consideration of environmental flow
 needs, and joint water development and energy generation.

Title: Exploring China's transboundary water treaty practice through the prism of the UN Watercourses Convention 
Abstract:
	      China shares 40 major transboundary watercourses with 16
 countries. This paper surveys China's transboundary water treaty practice
 and compares it to the core principles of the 1997 UN Watercourses
 Convention (UNWC). Despite a growing watercourse treaty practice
 stretching back some 60 years, China's agreements in this field are
 relatively unsophisticated. The authors conclude that China's
 transboundary water treaty practice would benefit from some of the
 guidelines set forth under the UNWC.

Title: Polycentrism and pitfalls: the formation of water users forums in the Kikuletwa catchment, Tanzania 
Abstract:
	      Catchment forums have to address the reality that river
 catchments typically cover several administrative districts and have
 overlapping arrangements of state-led and locally created institutions.
 Institutional nesting has been proposed to integrate local arrangements.
 However, the creation of a polycentric or nested governance system raises
 questions of coordination. This paper describes and analyzes the process
 of creating a catchment forum in the Kikuletwa catchment in Tanzania.
 Resolving the problem of administrative boundaries and institutional fit
 while integrating customary arrangements with the state-led governance
 structure requires careful analysis of local structures.

Title: The Gila River Indian Community Water Rights Settlement and its impact on water resource management 
Abstract:
	      The Arizona Water Settlements Act of 2004 ended nearly four
 decades of water disputes between the Gila River Indian Community and the
 state of Arizona. This paper explores the historical background of the
 Gila River Indian Community and its claim to water rights, the evolution
 of tribal water rights laws that culminated in the historic settlement,
 and the consequences of the act on water resource management in the
 region. It also links the findings from this case to the broader field of
 indigenous water rights studies from other regions of the world.

Title: Impacts of supply duration on the design and performance of intermittent water distribution systems in the West Bank 
Abstract:
	      This paper analyzes the intermittent water distribution
 system in the West Bank, Palestine. It quantifies the impacts of reduced
 supply duration on the hydraulics and costs of water distribution. It
 shows that designing systems based on intermittent supply criteria implies
 increasing the diameters of pipes significantly, which is expensive and
 infeasible. The paper recommends that studying the local conditions should
 precede the design of new systems to avoid reduced supply duration and
 related negative impacts. In addition, improving governance, revising
 tariffs, reducing leakage, saving water, involving the private sector, and
 improving water diplomacy should be considered in any water policy reform.

Title: Attitudes and behaviours towards water conservation on the Mediterranean coast: the role of socio-demographic and place-attachment factors 
Abstract:
	      Previous research has suggested that a range of
 socio-demographic and place-attachment attributes might indicate the
 willingness of households to take direct action on water conservation.
 Based on a study of suburban residents from the Girona region of Spain,
 this article seeks to determine whether such variables are associated with
 pro-environmental water-conservation attitudes and behaviours. Results
 show no significant or consistent relationships between these predictors
 and a suite of attitudinal and behavioural variables, suggesting that the
 characteristics and descriptors of place attachment and pro-environmental
 behaviour may need further discrimination if relationships between the two
 are to be used to inform policy and intervention.

Title: A SWAT evaluation of the effect of climate change on the hydrology of the Volta River basin 
Abstract:
	      The SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) was used to
 evaluate the impacts of a climate scenario based on IPCC A1B emissions on
 flows in the Volta River basin in West Africa for 2021-2050 and 2071-2100,
 using 1983-2012 as the reference period. Overall, the simulation indicates
 increased variability and a decrease of up to 40% in river flow as a
 consequence of decreasing rainfall and increasing temperature. In
 particular, the analysis shows smaller absolute but greater relative
 changes in the hydrology of the northern (upper) part of the basin,
 particularly at the end of the century.

Title: Drivers of change in agricultural water productivity and its improvement at basin scale in developing economies 
Abstract:
	      We approach the issue of water productivity in agriculture by
 identifying five sets of drivers of change. We find that irrigation
 efficiencies at the field level can result in real water savings under
 certain conditions, but that small farmers in most of South Asia and
 Africa have little incentive to adopt the appropriate measures. Although
 water productivity improvement and water savings at the regional level are
 possible through a shift to economically efficient crops, such changes may
 be constrained by concerns with respect to domestic and regional food
 security, rural employment, and farming system resilience.

Title: Dissolved and particulate organic carbon concentrations in stream water and relationships with land use in multiple-use watersheds of the Han River (Korea) 
Abstract:
	      This study examines temporal variation in dissolved organic
 carbon (DOC) and particulate organic carbon (POC) concentrations in
 streams in the Han River watershed, Korea. On days without significant
 antecedent rain, DOC and POC concentrations ranged from 0.87 to 3.23 mg
 C/L and 0.24 to 2.92 mg C/L, respectively. Following rain events, both DOC
 and POC concentrations were higher. Soil and compost had &delta;-super-13C
 values similar to stream &delta;-super-13C-DOC and &delta;-super-13C-POC.
 These results demonstrate the importance of studies using tracer
 approaches and the value of research on sources of organic carbon
 transported in streams in multiple use monsoonal watersheds.

Title: Private-sector participation in water service provision: revealing governance gaps 
Abstract:
	      This short paper reviews trends in private-sector
 participation in water infrastructure in the past 20 years and identifies
 the key governance lessons learnt from policy dialogues in selected
 countries, particularly based on the <italic>OECD Checklist for Public
 Action</italic> (OECD, 2009a) and the <italic>OECD Multilevel Governance
 Framework</italic> (OECD, 2011a). It highlights the contribution of better
 multi-level governance to creating the conditions for success of
 private-sector participation. It concludes that addressing the gaps
 generated by the institutional fragmentation in the water sector requires
 putting in place coordination and capacity-building mechanisms, regardless
 of the ownership of water operators.

Title: A GIS analysis of the spatial relation between evapotranspiration and pan evaporation in the United States 
Abstract:
	      Despite increases in global temperature, studies have
 observed a decrease in evaporation in the Northern Hemisphere. To examine
 whether a decrease in pan evaporation also indicates decreased
 evapotranspiration (ET), ET rates were modelled in a geographic
 information system by integrating climatic data and water-balance data
 from 1997 to 2007. Average monthly ET values were compared with National
 Climatic Data Center pan-evaporation (PE) data. PE and ET were
 significantly related, but the degree of significance and the direction of
 the relation (positive or negative) varied across eco-divisions and
 seasons. Thus, decreased pan evaporation does not necessarily imply that
 ET will decrease as well.

Title: Groundwater irrigation for smallholders in Sub-Saharan Africa - a synthesis of current knowledge to guide sustainable outcomes 
Abstract:
	      Groundwater irrigation for smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan
 Africa is growing in extent and importance. This growth is primarily
 driven spontaneously by the farmers themselves, spurred by improved access
 to low-cost technologies for pumps and drilling services as well as market
 opportunities for produce. This paper presents a review of the current
 status and knowledge of the prospects and constraints for sustainable and
 pro-poor groundwater irrigation in Sub-Saharan Africa. Further unlocking
 the potential of groundwater irrigation for smallholders will require
 better integrated approaches, simultaneously addressing groundwater-access
 constraints as well as enabling factors.

Title: Smallholder groundwater irrigation in Sub-Saharan Africa: country-level estimates of development potential 
Abstract:
	      The abundance of groundwater resources of Sub-Saharan Africa
 is generally well recognized, but quantitative estimates of their
 potential for irrigation development are lacking. This study derives
 estimates using a simple and generic water balance approach and data from
 secondary sources for 13 countries. Even with conservative assumptions and
 accounting for water demands from other sectors, including the
 environment, a 120-fold increase (by 13.5 million hectares) in the area
 under groundwater irrigation is possible for the countries considered.
 This expansion could improve the livelihoods of approximately 40% of the
 present-day rural population.

Title: Predicting groundwater recharge in Ghana by estimating evapotranspiration 
Abstract:
	      This study uses a modified Granger and Gray model to estimate
 evapotranspiration and then groundwater recharge in Ghana. The overall
 results show that the model is capable of reliably predicting regional
 evapotranspiration using a small number of monitoring stations with
 meteorological data only. This information allows the estimation of
 groundwater recharge via the water balance equation. The results indicate
 that the aquifer system is sufficiently recharged, especially in northern
 Ghana, where dry conditions prevail, to allow the development of
 groundwater resources to satisfy increasing water demands.

Title: Groundwater potential for dry-season irrigation in north-eastern Ghana 
Abstract:
	      This paper assesses the groundwater resource potential for
 dry-season vegetable irrigation in two areas of north-eastern Ghana. It
 uses multiple methods, including geophysical surveying, recharge
 estimation, and water quality analysis. Results indicate that groundwater
 abstractions for all purposes are small compared to recharge. The quality
 of groundwater in both study areas is suitable for irrigation, but a few
 wells had high nitrate levels for drinking water. There is a potential to
 expand dry-season irrigation with groundwater 14- to 18-fold in the study
 areas.

Title: Small pumps and the poor: a field survey in the Upper East Region of Ghana 
Abstract:
	      Despite public-sector attempts at developing irrigation, most
 smallholder farmers in Northern Ghana still rely on manual methods to
 irrigate dry-season vegetables on small acreages. A field survey was
 carried out to ascertain the potential of motorized pumps in irrigated
 agriculture in the region. The findings indicate that use of pumps is far
 more beneficial than other irrigation methods, and rainfed farming in
 general, and irrigators generally regard their pumps as "saviours". The
 major problem for the majority of farmers is the lack of financial means
 to purchase the pumps.

Title: Constraints and opportunities for groundwater irrigation arising from hydrologic shifts in the Iullemmeden Basin, south-western Niger 
Abstract:
	      Land-use-change-induced increases in shallow groundwater
 levels across parts of the Sahel in recent years have coincided with
 expanded use of groundwater for irrigation. This study was conducted to
 assess the potential linkages and livelihood implications based on a field
 survey of nine villages building on previous hydrological studies. The
 results show that irrigators lack effective means of production and mostly
 rely on manual methods. Borehole usage is more profitable and reliable
 than shallower wells. Overall incomes from irrigation are relatively small
 and severely constrained by the limited field scale due to high
 establishment and operating costs.

Title: Integrated assessment of hydrogeology and water quality for groundwater-based irrigation development in the Raya Valley, northern Ethiopia 
Abstract:
	      Ambitious plans for expanding the area under irrigation in
 Ethiopia have not been adequately underpinned by assessments of the actual
 potential. A detailed hydrogeological study was conducted in one of the
 focal areas for expansion, in the northern part of the country. The study
 revealed that there are large groundwater reserves within the valley
 floor's Quaternary alluvial sediments and underlying Tertiary fractured
 volcanic rocks. Levels of salinity and sodicity do not pose constraints
 for agricultural water use. In the valley-floor aquifers there would
 appear to be sufficient water to support large- and small-scale irrigation
 development.

Title: Improving the supply chain of motor pumps to accelerate mechanized small-scale private irrigation in Zambia 
Abstract:
	      During the past decade, smallholder groundwater irrigation
 with motor pumps has increased considerably in Zambia. This study analyzes
 an important but hitherto ignored factor for adoption: the supply chain of
 imported motor pumps. The main obstacles for farmers are identified as:
 the highly centralized supply chain and financing facilities in urban
 hubs; lack of information about prices, which vary significantly for the
 same make and model of pump; lack of information and training on proper
 use and maintenance; and lack of financing facilities. The Zambia National
 Farmers Union seems best placed to remove these obstacles.

Title: Progress of constitutional change and irrigation management transfer in Pakistan: insights from a net-map exercise 
Abstract:
 Two current processes of institutional reform - irrigation management
 transfer (IMT) and the 18th Amendment to Pakistan's Constitution - are
 expected to significantly impact agriculture and irrigation in Pakistan.
 Results are analyzed from a net-map exercise conducted with water-sector
 experts at the federal and provincial (Punjab) scales. The data suggest
 the potential for successful shifts of decision making under the 18th
 Amendment. However, weaker perceptions of the role of IMT in water
 governance were found than would be expected given its long history. This
 is further evidence that something new is necessary to help shift towards
 the decentralized IMT model.

Title: An old-new measure of canal water inequity 
Abstract:
 The fixed-turn or <italic>warabandi</italic> system of irrigation
 management is aimed at providing equitable rationing of Pakistan's limited
 water resources. This paper assesses the equity in practice of the
 <italic>warabandi</italic> system using the Gini and Theil indices.
 Defining equity as the delivery of an equal depth of water over the
 irrigated area for a crop season, distribution is relatively equitable at
 the distributary level. There is a need for improved indices that
 represent inequity and the difference between canal capacity and
 operational flows. This is particularly important for canals in the low-
 and lowest-priority subsets of the <italic>warabandi</italic> schedule.

Title: Is a surface-water market physically feasible in Pakistan's Indus Basin Irrigation System? 
Abstract:
 This paper argues that a water market is physically feasible in the
 existing reality of Pakistan's Indus Basin Irrigation System at the
 watercourse and distributary levels. The paper starts by describing the
 existing system and contrasts it with ideal economic management of surface
 water. It then lays out the degree and extent of modification to outlet
 structures that would be needed to enable trading based on structure type
 and the scale of the water-trading region, along with a first glance at
 the relative costs of those modifications. The ongoing decentralization of
 irrigation management should support water-trading efforts.

Title: Energy use in large-scale irrigated agriculture in the Punjab province of Pakistan 
Abstract:
 Pakistan's Indus Basin irrigation system, conceived initially as a vast
 network of gravity-fed canals, has evolved into a quasi-conjunctive
 management system in which pumped groundwater increasingly augments
 surface water supplies. Analysis of the evolution of on-farm energy use
 for agriculture in Punjab Province over the last 15 years finds that while
 total crop production increased 31%, direct energy intensity for
 agriculture increased 80%. Moreover, direct energy use is chiefly driven
 by groundwater pumping (61%). Important knowledge gaps are identified in
 the critical water-energy-food interdependencies that need to be addressed
 for sustainable management of scarce natural resources in Pakistan.

Title: Using fallout -super-137Cs for evaluation of watershed management in a sub-catchment of Mangla, Pakistan 
Abstract:
 Soil erosion, responsible for both soil degradation and sedimentation in
 conveyance systems and reservoirs, is a matter of growing concern
 globally, and particularly in Pakistan, where a growing number of extreme
 events are being observed. This study presents the first application of
 fallout radionuclides, specifically caesium-137 (-super-137Cs), in a
 sub-catchment of the Mangla Watershed in Pakistan and confirms that forest
 management significantly reduces erosion. The methods and findings of the
 study can help policy makers understand the extent of erosion and locate
 target areas within a catchment that may need immediate action to reduce
 adverse erosion impacts in a timely manner.

Title: Comparative institutional analysis of customary rights and colonial law in spate irrigation systems of Pakistani Punjab 
Abstract:
 This paper investigates how political processes shape the institutional
 arrangements and affect the rules-in-use and performance of small-scale
 tribal and state-administered irrigation systems in Pakistan's Punjab
 region using the ADICO institutional grammar proposed by Crawford and
 Ostrom. Externally crafted rules failed to fully incorporate
 context-specific needs and enforceability due to complex and unclear
 institutional statements as compared to locally evolved customary rules.
 The formulation and enforceability of policy designs need to be improved
 for effective management and the institutional grammar needs to be
 expanded for broader applicability across different linguistic contexts.

Title: Droughts in Pakistan: a spatiotemporal variability analysis using the Standardized Precipitation Index 
Abstract:
 We investigated the spatiotemporal variability of drought incidence in
 Pakistan during 1960-2007 by calculating Standardized Precipitation Index
 fields for 3-, 6- and 12-month scales using gridded precipitation data.
 Principal component analysis revealed that droughts are wide-spread and
 often occur simultaneously over large areas. Furthermore, spectral
 analysis identified a 16-year drought recurrence period. Three such
 drought-intensive periods were identified: the late 1960s to early 1970s;
 the middle 1980s; and the late 1990s to early 2000s. Hence, drought
 patterns need to be integrated into long-term water planning as well as
 emergency preparedness.

Title: An introduction to the IBMR, a hydro-economic model for climate change impact assessment in Pakistan's Indus River basin 
Abstract:
 The Indus Basin Model Revised (IBMR) is a hydro-agro-economic optimization
 model for agricultural investment planning across Pakistan's Indus Basin
 provinces. This study describes IBMR-2012, an update and modification of
 the model that reflects the current agro-economic conditions in Pakistan
 for the purpose of evaluating the impact of climate change on water
 allocation and food security. Results of hydro-climatic parameter
 sensitivity and basin-wide and provincial-level climate change impacts on
 crop productions are presented. The study finds that compared to Punjab,
 Sindh faces both significantly larger climate change impacts on
 agriculture and higher uncertainty regarding climate change impacts in the
 future.

Title: Climate change impacts and adaptation options for water and food in Pakistan: scenario analysis using an integrated global water and food projections model 
Abstract:
 Climate change is expected to considerably affect the water resources in
 the Indus River basin in Pakistan and thus agricultural production in the
 country. This article reports an analysis of the impacts of various
 climate scenarios on both water resources and food production out to 2050.
 While changes in water availability range from -12% to +24%, depending on
 the scenario, crop yield and production impacts are negative across all
 scenarios, and net food imports increase. We suggest a combination of
 accelerated investment in agricultural research and increased water-use
 efficiency in agriculture to reduce the adverse impacts of climate change
 on water and food.

Title: Changing the nature of transboundary water agreements: the Israeli-Palestinian case 
Abstract:
 This abridged version of the proposal developed for Friends of the Earth
 Middle East presents the design for an agreement between Israelis and
 Palestinians to share water in a physically realistic, ecologically
 sustainable and socially equitable manner. Existing arrangements are, at
 best, inadequate and, in some cases, counterproductive. The proposal
 relies upon ongoing monitoring and mediation to achieve equitable and
 sustainable use. It presents why and how an agreement on water can be
 reached now, before resolving the full range of issues required in a Final
 Status Agreement between Israel and Palestine.

Title: Assessing the existing knowledge base and opinions of decision makers on the regulation and monitoring of unconventional gas mining in South Africa 
Abstract:
 A policy vacuum exists in relation to the exploration and mining of
 unconventional gas in South Africa, with a recent survey showing that 86%
 of the respondents did not know what hydraulic fracturing entails. We
 conducted a study to determine the opinion of decision makers involved in
 formulating policy and regulating mining activities related to shale gas
 mining in South Africa, as this was not covered in the aforementioned
 survey. Our results demonstrate that the regulation of shale gas mining in
 South Africa is viewed as extremely important and identifies possible
 regulatory and monitoring tools to assist in governing this activity.

Title: Assessing the economic impact of North China's water scarcity mitigation strategy: a multi-region, water-extended computable general equilibrium analysis 
Abstract:
 This paper describes a multi-region computable general equilibrium model
 for analyzing the effectiveness of measures and policies for mitigating
 North China's water scarcity with respect to three different groups of
 scenarios. The findings suggest that a reduction in groundwater use would
 negatively affect economic growth and household incomes. A planned
 water-transfer project would improve economic development and reduce the
 over-exploitation of local water resources, while water demand management
 policies would improve water-use efficiency through reallocating water to
 those sectors having a higher marginal product value. Several important
 policy implications are drawn from these findings.

Title: Integrated river basin planning and management: a case study of the Zayandehrud River basin, Iran 
Abstract:
 This study applies the concept of integrated water resources management
 (IWRM) to a river basin in Iran, and in so doing, proposes a framework for
 implementing IWRM principles. Issues such as stakeholder participation,
 sustainability in several subdomains, scenario analysis, dispute
 resolution, climate change and well-designed models have been considered.
 Through a river basin simulation model (RIBASIM) and sustainability
 criteria, stakeholders made decisions for improving the level of
 sustainability in the basin. The result of decision making for the future
 was tested under climate change impacts, and the outputs showed serious
 challenges, so a strategy is proposed for overcoming these impact effects.

Title: Attitudes toward post-earthquake water and sanitation management and payment options in Leogane, Haiti 
Abstract:
 The Haitian government passed a law in 2009 to decentralize water utility
 management and improve cost recovery. This study identifies the attitudes
 of the public towards payment for and management of water and sanitation,
 several months after the 2010 earthquake, through a survey
 (<italic>N</italic> = 171) and semi-structured interviews
 (<italic>N</italic> = 19) in Leogane, Haiti. A majority of survey
 respondents were willing to pay for water and sanitation, which aligns
 with the fee-based approach of the 2009 law. Significant differences were
 found between geographic locations, suggesting that a neighbourhood-level
 approach to water and sanitation is appropriate.

Title: Lost in transition? The introduction of water users associations in Uzbekistan 
Abstract:
 A "policy as process" perspective is adopted to analyze the early period
 of water users associations (WUAs) in Uzbekistan (2000-2006). The article
 is based on extensive fieldwork (in 2005-2006) and analysis of policy and
 other relevant documents. It is shown that WUAs have a role and logic
 beyond water management and are used by the state as instruments with
 which to monitor and regulate "state-ordered" agricultural production.
 Through a state-centric policy process with room for local
 experimentation, the WUA was fit into the socio-political landscape of
 continued state control and the increased role of individualized risks and
 benefits.

Title: Managed aquifer recharge in community water supply: the Finnish experience and some international comparisons 
Abstract:
 This paper analyzes the use of managed aquifer recharge (MAR) in community
 water supply in Finland and presents some international experiences for
 comparison. The framework of MAR consists of the natural environment and
 physical infrastructure, as well as socio-economic aspects, all of which
 are interrelated. Local conditions form the basis of an MAR system and to
 a large degree determine infiltration options and the most suitable
 methods. Finnish hydrogeology, climate and local conditions are highly
 comparable to those in Sweden but differ from those of other parts of
 Europe, Australia, the USA and Asia. This article provides a holistic view
 of MAR not only as a technical means of resource enhancement for water
 supply but also as an element interacting with the natural environment and
 society.

Title: Do policy and institutional factors explain the low levels of smallholder groundwater use in Sub-Saharan Africa? 
Abstract:
 This article examines the policy and institutional constraints on
 smallholder adoption of groundwater irrigation practices in Sub-Saharan
 Africa. The analysis departs from the unilateral focus on the promotion of
 technologies and probes not only the issues of groundwater governance but
 also those policies related to other enabling factors such as access to
 credit, energy and agricultural pricing policies and land-tenure security.
 The paper argues that the region may be missing an opportunity by not
 ensuring at least neutral policy towards agricultural groundwater
 development and addressing other constraints which hold back not only
 agricultural groundwater use but smallholder agriculture development in
 general.

Title: Understanding smallholder irrigation in Sub-Saharan Africa: results of a sample survey from nine countries 
Abstract:
 Smallholder irrigation is emerging as a development priority in
 Sub-Saharan Africa. Based on a survey of 1554 smallholders from nine
 countries, this paper compares rainfed farming with gravity-flow,
 manual-lift and motor-pump irrigation. Motor-pump-irrigation farmers
 reported the highest net value added per acre and per family worker, with
 gravity-flow and manual-irrigation farmers earning marginally more than
 rainfed-only farmers. In addition to making affordable pumps more readily
 available, improving the availability of working capital, enhancing
 security of tenure and ensuring the availability of affordable fuel are
 all likely to accelerate smallholder irrigation development in Sub-Saharan
 Africa.

Title: Small pumps and poor farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa: an assessment of current extent of use and poverty outreach 
Abstract:
 The expansion of irrigation in Sub-Saharan Africa has been slow. In Asia,
 the rapid expansion of smallholder irrigation systems was attributed in
 part to the availability and affordability of motorized pumps. This paper
 appraises the current extent of pump-based irrigation in Sub-Saharan
 Africa; profiles the socio-economic and demographic attributes of current
 pump adopters; and assesses the poverty outreach of small-pump technology.
 It shows that private smallholder irrigation is practised mainly by the
 wealthier farmers. The development of groundwater irrigation requires
 targeted and deliberate public-policy interventions and institutional
 support focusing on the more marginal farmers.

Title: Gender aspects of smallholder private groundwater irrigation in Ghana and Zambia 
Abstract:
 This paper explores gender aspects of smallholders' private technology
 adoption for groundwater irrigation in Ghana and Zambia. It focuses on two
 variables of quantitative farm-household surveys: household headship and
 gendered plot management. The paper compares adoption rates and types of
 technologies for female- and male-headed households; examines adoption
 rates when women have their own plots; and compares women's decision
 making on irrigated plots and rainfed plots. The findings suggest that
 there are largely untapped synergies between gender-equality and
 irrigation-policy goals. Systematic gender differentiation in surveys is
 recommended.

Title: Cost-benefit analysis and ideas for cost sharing of groundwater irrigation: evidence from north-eastern Ethiopia 
Abstract:
 The government of Ethiopia has invested in groundwater development for
 smallholder irrigation in the Raya Valley and Kobo Valley, north-eastern
 Ethiopia, where the hydrogeological potential is large but not fully
 developed. A cost-benefit analysis shows that investment in deep
 groundwater irrigation development is viable at a 9.5% discount rate in
 75% of the wells. Assuming full cost recovery of capital investment, the
 annual payment rates (annuity) that irrigation users should pay over the
 wells' service life (25 years) were estimated. It is recommended that
 future investment be based on cost sharing rather than full cost recovery
 to facilitate uptake and address financial realities.

Title: Urbanizing diseases: contested institutional terrain of water- and vector-borne diseases in Ahmedabad, India 
Abstract:
 Ahmedabad represents one of the rapidly urbanizing cities in India, where
 almost all the households in the region have access to drinking-water
 supply and sanitation, yet it has not been successful in reducing the
 threat from water- and vector-borne diseases. This is due to the
 segregation of the settlements, poor urban planning, inadequate land
 tenure, and more so the inability of the government to meet the growing
 demand from the rapidly urbanizing population. Addressing such complex
 problems requires synergizing sector-wide interventions with a stronger
 role from the state to address the structural issues plaguing urban
 societies.

Title: Water, sanitation and health: an intra-urban comparison in the municipality of Caraguatatuba, Brazil 
Abstract:
 The rapid urbanization of Latin America during the twentieth century
 resulted in poor sanitation conditions that exposed its population to
 significant health risks. One of the most important examples is outbreaks
 of dengue fever, a multifactoral disease resulting in part from unsanitary
 water. This work seeks to understand the possible interrelation between
 the distribution of environmental sanitation services, including water,
 and the distribution of dengue by comparing intra-urban areas in
 Caraguatatuba, Brazil, using GIS tools such as regular grids, cluster
 analysis, and the application of Moran's index.

Title: Water-related health risks in rapidly developing towns: the potential of integrated GIS-based urban planning 
Abstract:
 Rapid urban transformation with economic growth often entails shortage of
 water infrastructure in developing contexts, implying particularly serious
 health risks in regions where water uncertainty is increasing with climate
 change. Taking two small towns, one in China and the other in India, as
 case studies, interview, questionnaire and field surveys were conducted in
 2011-2013. It was found that water pollution due to inadequate sanitation
 infrastructure is a serious health risk, but that implementation of
 decentralized sanitation systems (potentially better for water resources
 conservation) is impeded by decision-making structures. The article
 outlines a geographic information systems-based multi-criteria tool
 designed to support decision making on alternative water futures
 questions.

Title: Water, sanitation and hygiene practices among primary-school children in Lagos: a case study of the Makoko slum community 
Abstract:
 It is highly unlikely that Nigeria will be able to achieve the
 water-supply and sanitation targets of the Millennium Development Goals.
 This paper examines the impact of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH)
 knowledge, attitudes and practices among primary schoolchildren in Makoko,
 a slum in Lagos that typifies the Nigerian urban environment. The findings
 reveal that while primary-school pupils are fairly knowledgeable about
 WASH services, they indulge in risky WASH practices out of helplessness
 and poverty, suggesting that developing countries may not overcome their
 WASH crisis until the problem of poor governance is resolved.

Title: Health as a sustainability indicator within water resources management in rural and peri-urban areas of central northern Namibia 
Abstract:
 In this paper, a modelling approach is presented which is able to analyze
 a water-supply regime in order to comprehend health-related aspects in
 water resources management. The area of investigation is the
 Cuvelai-Etosha Basin in central northern Namibia. Major health hazards for
 the rural and peri-urban population stem from the usage of unsafe water
 sources. In the systems analysis, the variable Health turned out to be one
 of the major sustainability indicators. Furthermore, the identification of
 cause-effect chains revealed that education is a key factor in improving
 users' health situation, whereas poverty significantly degrades it.

Title: Water and sanitation in six villages in Guizhou and Guangxi Provinces, China: a critical perspective 
Abstract:
 China's rapid economic growth has resulted in extensive damage to water
 resources in rural areas. The Amity Foundation's studies of six villages
 in two of China's poorest provinces, Guizhou and Guangxi, indicate that
 clean-water projects led to a marked decrease in the incidence of
 diarrhoea, especially in downstream villages. Such initiatives have
 strengthened the existing technical and institutional infrastructure in
 the villages. The paper calls for sustaining such interventions through
 adequate legislation and policies that improve infrastructure, integrate
 various departments, regulate diverse water uses and facilitate the
 involvement of civil society.

Title: Towards systematic comparative water and health research 
Abstract:
 The cases in this issue cover a range of water and health challenges in
 various socio-political and geographical contexts. Past attempts to bring
 more analytical rigor to the field of comparative water and health
 research or to integrate various methods systematically have not yet been
 very successful. Drawing from the collection of papers in this special
 issue, an approach for future systematic stepwise
 small-and-medium-<italic>N</italic> comparative water and health research
 is developed.

Title: Statistical analysis of Philippine water district characteristics and how these affect water tariffs 
Abstract:
 Philippine water districts (WDs) provide water to over 17 million
 Filipinos. Each WD is an independent entity, and water tariffs vary widely
 across the 493 WDs due to perceived area-specific conditions. A
 statistical model was applied to available data to determine how these
 conditions affect tariffs. Results confirm the direct influence on tariffs
 of factors such as location, water source and efficiency of service
 provision. It is likewise found that an optimal value exists for
 connection density and for capital outlay. This suggests an optimum size
 for a WD to be able to provide the lowest possible tariff.

Title: Situating water in peacebuilding: revisiting the Middle East peace process 
Abstract:
 Few studies have conceptually discussed the linkage between hydropolitics
 and peacebuilding. This article critically assesses the
 <italic>problematique</italic> of conflict and cooperation in the Jordan
 River basin and explores the underlying and shared assumptions between
 functionalist negotiation principles and liberal peacebuilding practices.
 It analyzes the competing positions among Israelis and Palestinians and
 revisits the water negotiations in the Middle East peace process. It
 reveals how technical framing of water cooperation takes precedence, which
 tends to ignore power asymmetry and the politics of water.

Title: Assessment of rural and highly seasonal tourist activity plus drought effects on reservoir operation in a semi-arid region of Greece using the WEAP model 
Abstract:
 The WEAP (Water Evaluation and Planning) model was used to estimate the
 effects of drought in addition to rural and tourist activity on the
 operation of two multi-purpose reservoirs in the Chalkidiki region of
 Greece. In scenarios based on historical data from 1975-2005, the fully
 effective months exceeded 85% of the total simulation period, while
 short-term droughts (less than two years' duration) made the reservoirs
 ineffective to cover summer water demand. The results show that short-term
 droughts, in combination with high competition for water supply during
 summer between tourist and rural activities, may have environmental and
 social implications in semi-arid environments.

Title: Macro, meso, and micro-efficiencies and terminologies in water resources management: a look at urban and agricultural differences 
Abstract:
 Efficiency of water resources is essential; just as important is the
 terminology that describes it. Paradoxes in terminologies used by various
 international institutions and professionals in the agricultural, urban
 and environmental domains are examined. Integrated terminologies are
 proposed, starting from flow-path types in water balance and expanded into
 the "macro, meso, and micro-efficiencies" (3ME) formulation. The 3ME is a
 systemic framework based on the principle of the conservation of mass,
 integrating water-flow paths of a water system, their beneficial and
 quality attributes (the usefulness criterion), climate, and two types of
 <italic>water totals</italic>. These terminologies, with nine examples for
 urban (three types) and agricultural areas (rainfed, surface, drip and
 sprinkler), are used to discuss the 3ME framework and possible flawed
 policy implications.

Title: Roman water law in rural Africa: the unfinished business of colonial dispossession 
Abstract:
 This paper discusses four questions about the recent water law reforms in
 Sub-Saharan Africa, which strengthen permit systems. First, do permit
 systems continue to dispossess rural small-scale users, as intended by
 European colonizers who introduced principles of Roman law? Second, is it
 wrong to assume that one can convert one legal system (customary water
 rights) into another legal system (permits) in the short term? Third, do
 current permit systems discriminate against small-scale users? And lastly,
 do fiscal measures ingrained in permits foster rent seeking and strengthen
 water resources as a commodity for nationals and foreigners who can pay?
 As all the answers are positive, the paper concludes by recommending
 measures to recognize and protect small-scale water users and render state
 regulation more realistic.

Title: The Cycles and Spirals of Justice in water-allocation decision making 
Abstract:
 Managing for social and environmental justice in water allocation is a
 necessary yet challenging goal. Often, what can appear as a just or
 equitable outcome for a specific location or group of stakeholders can
 also result in injustices at other locations or for other stakeholders.
 This paper describes a conceptual framework, The Cycles and Spirals of
 Justice, that helps make sense of the relationship between justice and
 injustice in the context of water-allocation decision making by explicitly
 utilizing a landscape-ecology understanding of scale and levels. The
 framework is illustrated using a case study from the Murray-Darling Basin
 in Australia and describes how justice and injustice are part of a cycling
 continuum of "justice for whom" and how this plays out in a multi-level
 system where the problem of scale can surface.

Title: Including cultural water requirements in environmental flow assessment: an example from the upper Ganga River, India 
Abstract:
 The rituals of riparian communities are frequently linked to the flow
 regimes of their river. These dependencies need to be identified,
 quantified and communicated to policy makers who manage river flows. This
 paper describes the first attempt to explicitly evaluate the flows
 required to maintain the cultural and spiritual activities in the upper
 Ganga River basin. Riparian dwellers and visitors were interviewed and the
 responses analyzed to obtain an overview of the needs and motivations for
 cultural flows. The approach enhances the overall concept of environmental
 flow assessment, especially in river basins where spiritual values
 ascribed to rivers are high.

Title: From an open-access to a state-controlled resource: the case of groundwater in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal 
Abstract:
 Groundwater is no longer an open-access resource in Kathmandu. Perceptions
 of groundwater are changing from an "infinite" to a "finite" resource and
 the role of the government from supply developer to caretaker of the
 resource. In this context, this paper aims to unfold how perceptions of
 groundwater in Kathmandu Valley, Nepal, are changing from an open-access
 resource to an overexploited, depleted, degraded, vulnerable and
 state-controlled resource. In the process, it produces an aggregated
 picture of resource availability, development dynamics, impacts and
 responses in the area; suggests some "soft-path" approaches for
 groundwater management; and discusses implications of the experience for
 other areas.

Title: A framework for assessing effective urban water management: lessons from the Canadian Prairie 
Abstract:
 This paper presents an urban water management framework consisting of six
 requisites for effective water management identified based on a literature
 review: source water protection; stormwater management; water
 conservation; water pricing; wetland conservation; and drought management.
 The objective was to test the requisite framework in three Canadian urban
 centres within a region of increasing water stress, the Canadian Prairie.
 The findings point to variable water management efficiency across the
 study region and to requisite selection being regionally dependent. A
 common set of requisites may not be suitable for all urban regions when
 attempting to assess effective urban water management.

Title: Defining, researching and struggling for water justice: some conceptual building blocks for research and action 
Abstract:
 This article provides a framework for understanding water problems as
 problems of justice. Drawing on wider (environmental) justice approaches,
 informed by interdisciplinary ontologies that define water as
 simultaneously natural (material) and social, and based on an explicit
 acceptance of water problems as always contested, the article posits that
 water justice is embedded and specific to historical and socio-cultural
 contexts. Water justice includes but transcends questions of distribution
 to include those of cultural recognition and political participation, and
 is intimately linked to the integrity of ecosystems. Justice requires the
 creative building of bridges and alliances across differences.

Title: What is water equity? The unfortunate consequences of a global focus on 'drinking water' 
Abstract:
 In recent years, 'equity' has become a goal of water governance. Yet, the
 indices and policy guidelines for household water, published by the WHO
 and UNICEF and adopted globally, focus on either 'drinking water' or a
 limited interpretation of the 'human right to water'. We examine ideas of
 equity in household water and argue that the dominant focus on improving
 the potability of water has muted attention to the wider consideration of
 domestic water and its impact on livelihoods and poverty. A focus on the
 many capabilities enabled by domestic water illuminates some of these
 issues.

Title: Examining the emerging role of groundwater in water inequity in India 
Abstract:
 This article addresses a gap in the water equity literature arising from
 the simultaneous use of surface water and groundwater in India. Using two
 diverse case studies - one agricultural (Kukdi) and one urban (Chennai) -
 we demonstrate how gaps in planning, design and policy exacerbate
 inequity. Groundwater abstraction from user wells allows wealthier users
 to both free-ride and capture a greater share of the resource. By
 converting a public resource to a private one, it worsens inequity and
 jeopardizes the sustainability of water projects. The article suggests
 that better monitoring, inter-agency coordination and rethinking water
 entitlements and norms are needed for going forward.

Title: The colonial roots of inequality: access to water in urban East Africa 
Abstract:
 While water access is a major concern for all residents in Dar es Salaam
 and Nairobi, the difficulty of hauling water is particularly pronounced in
 the informal settlements that are significant portions of both cities.
 This is an inequality that has only recently begun to be recognized as an
 injustice between rich and poor. Rooted in the segregation of colonial
 rule, it is sustained by the continuing injustice of land policies and the
 multiple complications involved with upgrading urban settlements.

Title: Popular participation, equity, and co-production of water and sanitation services in Caracas, Venezuela 
Abstract:
 This article argues that the technical water committees in Venezuela are
 an example of co-production of public service delivery between state and
 citizen. In practical terms, the committees help to reduce information
 asymmetries between service providers and citizen-users and improve
 accountability. Unlike depoliticized notions of co-production that have
 been celebrated in the mainstream development literature, however, this
 experiment in urban planning promotes participation as empowerment,
 because the committees are part of a wider political agenda, engage
 citizens in a broader process of social change, promote rethinking of the
 concept of citizenship, and have thus far avoided elite capture.

Title: Creating equitable water institutions on disputed land: a Honduran case study 
Abstract:
 This article explores the decade-long process by which village-level water
 committees established a reserve in 2002 to protect communal mountain
 springs in the Montaña Camapara region of Honduras. In so doing, it
 considers the conditions under which shared dependence on water resources
 may motivate cooperation and foster equitable access to water in the face
 of difficult challenges posed by conflicts over land and water rights
 claims and degradation of the resource.

Title: What kind of governance for what kind of equity? Towards a theorization of justice in water governance 
Abstract:
 This article critically reviews literatures related to the core concepts
 of this special issue: water and hydrosocial relations; water governance
 and spatial scale; and equity, justice and rights. It argues that only by
 viewing water and society as simultaneously social and natural can we
 address both ecological governance and environmental justice. It argues
 that the institutional arrangements we employ for governing water must
 address issues of democratization, human welfare and ecological
 conditions. The article illustrates these arguments with reference to the
 social and environmental effects of mining activity and associated water
 contamination on the Bolivian Altiplano.

Title: Minute 319: a cooperative approach to Mexico-US hydro-relations on the Colorado River 
Abstract:
 Minute 319 is the most recent amendment to the 1944 treaty governing the
 Colorado River, shared between Mexico and the United States. The amendment
 was adopted, in part, as a continuing response to the 2010 Mexicali
 earthquake, which severely damaged Mexican irrigation infrastructure, as
 well as ongoing objectives to address dwindling water supplies in the
 basin. By implementing measures to share both shortages and surpluses, and
 by facilitating long-term collaborative efforts that engender
 interdependencies, the amendment commits the parties to cooperate and may
 serve as a model for other regions sharing limited transboundary
 freshwater resources.

Title: Water, sanitation and hygiene and indigenous peoples: a review of the literature 
Abstract:
 The levels of sanitation and water services coverage as well as health
 attainment are low among indigenous peoples. This exclusion from basic
 service has not been sufficiently studied. The present review has analyzed
 185 articles dealing with indigenous peoples and the water, sanitation and
 hygiene complex. The literature is dramatically skewed towards water
 resources, and overwhelmingly focused on conflicts, at the expense of
 basic sanitation and hygiene. More initiatives towards the acknowledgement
 of indigenous peoples' world-views and institutions in all aspects of the
 water management cycle are needed. To this end, the development of
 effective intercultural dialogue mechanisms is crucial.

Title: Development aid and access to water and sanitation in Sub-Saharan Africa 
Abstract:
 This paper compares countries' performance in the water and sanitation
 sector and analyzes how effectively they used the development aid targeted
 for this sector. These analyses are validated by presentation of the water
 and sanitation situation of four case-study countries: Kenya, Madagascar,
 Burkina Faso and Uganda. The paper also utilizes the innovative Watsan
 Index of Development Effectiveness, which compares drivers of progress
 with results achieved and ranks African countries by the level of outcome
 obtained per unit of available input in the four case-study countries.

Title: International water law and supporting water management principles in the development of a model transboundary agreement between riparians in international river basins 
Abstract:
 A set of water management principles are analyzed and form the basis for a
 template for a model transboundary agreement for international river
 basins. The tenets of international water law, which support the selection
 of the principles, are analyzed. The principles include equitable and
 reasonable utilization and the obligation to not cause significant harm as
 the interrelated and overarching principles of international watercourse
 management. The development of a template is undertaken because
 ratification of the 1997 UN watercourses convention is at hand and a
 template consistent with this convention may facilitate the protection of
 shared water resources.

Title: Water governance and scalar politics across multiple-boundary river basins: states, catchments and regional powers in the Iberian Peninsula 
Abstract:
 In this article, the state of the art of the current debate on scalar
 politics and water governance is reviewed. The case of the Iberian
 Peninsula is considered in the light of the critical approach to the river
 basin as the unquestionable unit for water management. It is argued that
 when discussing 'spatial fit' issues, special attention should be given to
 changes in governance relationships and power structures. Key questions to
 be addressed include: When is the river basin an appropriate alternative?
 What types of decisions are to be taken at the basin scale? And what
 practices and rights can be endangered?

Title: Water distribution systems and on-farm irrigation practices: limitations and consequences for Afghanistan's agricultural productivity 
Abstract:
 The absence of a reliable water supply to farmers is the single most
 important impediment to food security and agricultural expansion in
 Afghanistan. Agricultural water supply and distribution systems are
 reviewed, and a pragmatic strategy is outlined to increase water capital
 and to better utilize available water. The development and dissemination
 of on-farm practices that improve water management through community-based
 approaches represent the best opportunity for improving farmer
 livelihoods, maintaining social stability and developing a sound
 agriculture-based economy in the immediate future, independent of the
 success or failure of national water policies.

Title: Satellite precipitation products and hydrologic applications 
Abstract:
 This study examined the application of satellite precipitation in the
 modelling of 10 watersheds in diverse locations around the planet (Brazil,
 South Korea, Australia and New Zealand). Significantly, modelled
 streamflow based on local rain-gauge data and the production version of
 TRMM 3B42 yielded acceptable results in most of the examined watersheds.
 An important finding was that the newest version of TRMM 3B42 (V7) can
 potentially support modelling in watersheds that are significantly smaller
 than 10,000 km-super-2. Conversely, real-time satellite products that have
 more limited (or no) bias corrections (such as CMORPH) produced model
 results that were unacceptable in most basins.

Title: Impact of sedimentation on groundwater recharge at Sahalanowt Dam, Salalah, Oman 
Abstract:
 Recharge dams in Oman detain floods to recharge groundwater. The impact of
 sedimentation on recharge at Wadi Sahalanowt Recharge Dam, in Salalah,
 Oman, was evaluated using field data and numerical modelling. Analysis of
 the thickness of sediments after flood events shows that maximum
 depositions were at the same locations after each event, coinciding with
 the lowest positions in the wadi. Numerical modelling suggests that the
 current practice of periodic removal of sediments will restore the storage
 capacity of the reservoir, but that ploughing or raking of the underlying
 native sedimentary rocks could be required to significantly improve
 infiltration rates.

Title: The use of goal-oriented strategies in the building of water governance in Brazil 
Abstract:
 Water policy in Brazil has delivered few positive outcomes in terms of the
 sustainable use of water resources, in spite of real progress in the
 consolidation of a democratic water governance system over the past
 decades. There are many reasons for this, most of them related to
 unsuccessful attempts to consolidate integrated water resources management
 practices. Water managers have a critical decision to make in the next
 years: to strengthen the existing decentralized and participatory water
 governance system, using innovative approaches to promote integrated water
 resources management; or to replace it with another, more centralized
 institutional model focusing on state actors.

Title: Downspout politics, upstream conflict: formalizing rainwater harvesting in the United States 
Abstract:
 This article examines the formalization of rainwater harvesting (RWH) and
 the implications of new policy trends for water governance. Analysis of 96
 RWH policies across the United States indicates three trends: (1) the
 'codification' of water through administrative rather than public law; (2)
 the institutionalization of RWH through market-based tools; and (3) the
 rise of policies at different spatial scales, resulting in greater
 institutional complexity, new bureaucratic actors, and potential points of
 friction. Drawing on the cases of Colorado and Texas, the article argues
 that states with diverse legal traditions of water enable more successful
 regulatory environments for downspout alternatives.

Title: Quantitative goals for large-scale fog collection projects as a sustainable freshwater resource in northern Chile 
Abstract:
 The objective of this study was to determine the quantitative goals for a
 large-scale fog collection project if it were to be an economically
 competitive source of freshwater in northern Chile. When the initial costs
 are factored in, the cost of water from such a project would exceed the
 market price of the alternatives. However, given current costs, the
 project could be profitable given an average collection rate of about 10
 litres per day per square metre. Investment in site selection and system
 improvements to reduce costs and improve collection rates are essential
 for making large-scale fog collection an economically competitive source
 of freshwater.

Title: Water conservation through trade: the case of Kenya 
Abstract:
 This study quantifies and maps the water footprint of Kenya from both
 production and consumption perspectives and estimates the country's
 virtual water export and import. Kenya's virtual water export related to
 trade in agricultural products was 4.1 km-super-3/y; its virtual water
 import was 4.0 km-super-3/y. The average export earning per unit of water
 consumed or polluted in producing agricultural export products was USD
 0.25/m-super-3, while the average expenditure on imported commodities per
 unit of virtual water imported was USD 0.10/m-super-3. In addition to
 increasing water productivity in crop production, Kenya can mitigate its
 water scarcity by increasing imports of water-intensive products such as
 cereals and exports of high-value products such as cut flowers,
 vegetables, spices and tea.

Title: Pathways for effective groundwater governance in the least-developed-country context of the Lao PDR 
Abstract:
 Instituting effective groundwater governance is highly challenging in a
 least developed country such as the Lao PDR where groundwater resources
 need to be developed for a variety of reasons but the levels of
 understanding, awareness and technical capacity are extremely limited.
 This paper discusses the current state of knowledge and management of
 groundwater and suggests some pathways forward. Whilst the level of
 governance remains very low, there is growing interest in tackling the
 entrenched technical and non-technical issues and constraints. Various
 initiatives have recently emerged, resulting in positive institutional
 change.

Title: Fluoride contamination in the Bongo District of Ghana, West Africa: geogenic contamination and cultural complexities 
Abstract:
 This research investigated the extent of fluoride contamination in the
 Bongo District of northeast Ghana and the relationships of this fluoride
 contamination to the underlying geology and precipitation patterns, social
 and cultural attitudes towards water, and age divisions inherent in water
 usage patterns and the consequent demands placed on a borehole. The
 fluoride concentrations measured in the area are higher than reported in
 earlier literature. High fluoride levels are geographically confined to
 one geologic formation and appear to be inversely correlated to regional
 precipitation. Fluoride variation studies, tracking concentrations over 8
 months, also reflect this link to local precipitation patterns. This
 localized analysis of water contamination issues addresses broader gender
 and policy issues inherent in supplying potable water.

Title: Heavy metals in the midstream of the Ganges River: spatio-temporal trends in a seasonally dry tropical region (India) 
Abstract:
 Midstream concentrations of Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, Mn and Zn were studied
 at eight sampling sites in the Ganges River at Varanasi from March 2011 to
 February 2013. Concentrations were lowest at Site 1 (upstream of the urban
 core), increased consistently downstream, and were highest at Site 8
 (downstream of the urban core). The rank of concentration was Zn > Fe > Pb
 > Mn > Cu > Ni > Cr > Cd. Except for Zn, concentrations were highest in
 winter. Cr, Cu, Ni, Mn and Zn did not exceed their internationally
 recommended maximum admissible concentration (MAC). However, over 80% of
 the water samples contained Cd, over 70% Pb and about 50% Fe above their
 respective MACs of 3.0, 10.0 and 300 &#xb5;g L-super--1. Since the river
 water is used for irrigation and drinking purposes, the study has
 relevance from a human health perspective.

Title: Whither collective action? Upscaling collective actions, politics and basin management in the process of 'legitimizing' an informal groundwater economy 
Abstract:
 This article examines different forms and levels of collective action by
 aquifer users in securing access to over-allocated groundwater resources
 using a case study of La Loma, &Uacute;beda (Jaén, Spain), one of the
 largest olive-growing areas in the world. It shows how opportunities for
 collective water management increase at the basin level as bargaining
 spaces increase but also how political rent influences the institutional
 designs that emerge. The article identifies an opportunity to redesign the
 organizational and institutional configurations by both securing access to
 water and strengthening collaborative spaces at the basin level.

Title: Rethinking commons management in Sub-Saharan West Africa: public authority and participation in the agricultural water sector 
Abstract:
 Promoted for over three decades, participatory irrigation management (PIM)
 and its organizational upshot the water user association (WUA) have been
 framed as a solution to the irrigation sector problems. Based on a case
 study of small reservoirs in two countries of West Africa, Burkina Faso
 and Ghana, this article shows that the PIM/WUA model is based on narrow
 visions of the commons and participation and does not account for the de
 facto pluralism and institutional bricolage that characterize natural
 resources management. Attempts at institutional intervention should be
 based on better understanding social relationships and existing processes
 of decision making.

Title: Tragedy? What tragedy? Swords of Damocles and common property irrigation 
Abstract:
 Discourse on common pool resources that are governed by common property
 regimes is commonly characterized by 'tragedy' and 'threats' to
 'community' cooperation. This article questions the relevance of these
 notions in relation to changing rural reality in the hills of Nepal.
 Farmers individualize water tenure to overcome the shortcomings of common
 property regime irrigation for diversified crops. While cooperation in
 irrigation may decrease, new types of cooperation emerge that reflect a
 wider range of institutions suited to diversified and complex livelihood
 portfolios.

Title: Productivity and the poor? Political economy of village pond fishery in the Indo-Gangetic Basin 
Abstract:
 India's 2.25 million ha of village tanks were for centuries loosely
 managed as multiple-use common property resources, including for fishing
 by artisanal fisher-folk, the lowest in the social hierarchy. During the
 1970s and after, the aquaculture productivity revolution created a vibrant
 new political economy by increasing manyfold the value of fishing rights
 in these tanks. This productivity boom was expected to improve the lot of
 poor artisanal fisher communities. But has this happened? This study
 across the Indo-Gangetic Basin suggests increasing elite capture of these
 community-owned resources. Capital, technology and muscle power have
 determined who benefits; artisanal fishers have none of these.

Title: A long-term view of water consumption in Barcelona (1860-2011): from deprivation to abundance and eco-efficiency? 
Abstract:
 Water consumption in Barcelona in Spain, and the corresponding water
 imprint, followed a path resembling an Environmental Kuznets Curve. They
 grew slowly from the mid-19th century before reaching a peak in 1967-70,
 and a downward trend followed up to 2010. This paper uses a decomposition
 analysis to assess the role played by population growth, income increase
 and water intensity as determinants of these trends. It is stressed that
 water intensity does not express technical change alone, but includes
 social inequalities, consumer habits and cultural perceptions as well. It
 can be explained by taking into account the social conflicts and public
 policies of each period.

Title: Subsidizing the sustainability of rural water supply: the experience of the Brazilian rural rainwater-harvesting programme 
Abstract:
 This article addresses the tension between subsidies and the
 sustainability of rural water supply systems based on research carried out
 in Minas Gerais, Brazil, on the Brazilian rainwater harvesting Programme
 for One Million Rural Cisterns (P1MC). The fieldwork included a survey of
 623 beneficiary households and 47 in-depth interviews, as well as a
 workshop with P1MC managers. It is concluded that heavy government
 subsidies for the construction of the cisterns resulted in some alienation
 of users. It is highlighted that in the cases studied, strong government
 participation is critical to expanding access to water.

Title: Irrigation infrastructure development in the Limarí Basin in Central Chile: implications for adaptation to climate variability and climate change 
Abstract:
 One option to deal with climate variability in agriculture is to build
 irrigation infrastructure, although this may lead to the overdevelopment
 of water resources, leading to 'basin closure'. The Limarí Basin, in
 central north Chile, has relied on irrigation infrastructure over the last
 30&nbsp;years to increase water supply reliability and extend irrigated
 acreage, especially for permanent crops. This situation has reduced
 adaptation opportunities in the basin, which is currently experiencing a
 severe drought that, according to climate change projections, is expected
 to persist in the future, with important consequences for the
 sustainability of agriculture production.

Title: Towards sustainable irrigated Mediterranean agriculture: implications for water conservation in semi-arid environments 
Abstract:
 Water scarcity is a threat to food production systems, with appropriate
 water management being a major part of the solution. From the adoption of
 the European Water Framework Directive to the latest proposals for the
 Common Agricultural Policy Horizon 2020, the strategic lines for
 establishing a balance between agriculture and water resources in the
 European Union have been defined, including an emphasis on water pricing.
 This paper discusses the situation of irrigated agriculture in semi-arid
 areas such as southern Spain in terms of water scarcity, highlighting the
 main advantages and disadvantages of water-pricing policies as a solution
 to more sustainable irrigation management.

Title: Are hydropower and irrigation development complements or substitutes? The example of the Nam Ngum River in the Mekong Basin 
Abstract:
 Hydropower and irrigation developments to address rising demand for food
 and energy are modifying the water balance of the Mekong Basin.
 Infrastructure investment decisions are also frequently made from a
 sub-catchment perspective. This paper compares river flows with irrigation
 development stages in the Nam Ngum sub-basin where the potential for
 irrigation and hydropower expansion is largely untapped. It shows that
 full hydropower development in this basin allows irrigation water use to
 triple, even as it reduces competition with environmental flow
 requirements. The implications for the wider Mekong are, however, unclear,
 particularly given uncertainty over parallel transformations elsewhere in
 the basin.

Title: The political economy of metering agricultural tube wells in West Bengal, India 
Abstract:
 Unmetered electricity supply to agriculture has given rise to a unique and
 invidious water-energy-food nexus in India. Metering of agricultural
 consumers has been suggested as a way to break the nexus, but most states
 have not been able to meter farmers due to their opposition . The only
 exception is the state of West Bengal. Using primary data from a household
 survey conducted in 2010 when the metering process was still underway,
 this paper argues that farmers' support for metering in West Bengal can be
 explained in terms of the economics of groundwater use and politics
 surrounding agriculture and groundwater in the state.

Title: Let's bring in the floods: de-poldering in the Netherlands as a strategy for long-term delta survival? 
Abstract:
 Controlled flooding, while heavily contested, is being experimented with
 in the Dutch delta as a new and ecologically oriented strategy to deal
 with floods, in contrast to the conventional flood prevention paradigm.
 The Noordwaard project (2012-15) represents an exemplary case. At the
 expense of agricultural practices, land is set aside occasionally to
 accommodate river floods, while restored flood and tidal dynamics aim to
 benefit nature development. It is argued that although controlled flooding
 aims to restore historical land and water dynamics in the area, the role
 of sedimentation processes has remained largely unaddressed in relation to
 shaping long-term delta futures.

Title: Contemporary legal analysis of China's transboundary water regimes: international law in practice 
Abstract:
 China's rapid development places growing pressure on its water resources,
 including its considerable transboundary waters. This paper analyses the
 current situation of China's transboundary water regimes through a legal
 analytical framework. The evaluation of treaty and state practice reveals
 that while China adheres to and follows some fundamental rules of
 international water law, gaps remain. New trends in China's state practice
 and in the field of international law offer interesting opportunities for
 addressing these shortcomings.

Title: Ten building blocks for sustainable water governance: an integrated method to assess the governance of water 
Abstract:
 A three-step interdisciplinary method to assess approaches to water
 shortage, water quality and flood risks is presented. This method, based
 on water system analysis, economics, law and public administration, seeks
 to create common understanding based on newly developed concepts and
 definitions. First, generating content knowledge about the water system
 and about values, principles and policy discourses. Second, providing an
 organizational process with sufficient stakeholder involvement, insight
 into the trade-off between social objectives, and attribution of
 responsibilities in addition to regulations and agreements. Finally,
 implementing the agreed service level through adequate infrastructure,
 enforcement and conflict resolution.

Title: Transboundary water law and vulnerable people: legal interpretations of the 'equitable use' principle 
Abstract:
 Vulnerable people require additional measures to ensure their water
 capabilities, as they have certain characteristics making them more
 vulnerable than others. As pointed out by recent studies, transboundary
 water access laws and policies do not sufficiently address the needs of
 vulnerable people. The prevailing legal arrangements often only address
 extrinsic vulnerability and forgo focusing on intrinsic vulnerability,
 which creates the need for different transboundary water legislation. This
 paper shows how international treaties can address the right to certain
 water capabilities by considering not merely the current but also future
 global populations into the creation of their transboundary agreements.

Title: Exploring China's approach to implementing 'eco-compensation' schemes: the Lake Tai watershed as case study considered through a legal lens 
Abstract:
 For close to a decade China has been implementing 'eco-compensation'
 mechanisms to address water-related ecosystem issues. This paper examines
 China's approach to eco-compensation through experience in the Lake Tai
 watershed. Four typologies of eco-compensation schemes are identified and
 analysed, primarily through a legal lens. It is concluded that while
 progress has been made, there is need for improved legal approaches to
 this complex topic.

Title: Groundwater governance and spatial planning challenges: examining sustainability and participation on the ground 
Abstract:
 This article explores the role of participation and the conditions for
 achieving sustainable groundwater governance and spatial planning by
 empirically examining cases in Australia and Costa Rica. A comparison of
 the two indicates that crisis can increase the likelihood of
 participation; participation can influence the government to develop
 environmental legislation; self-interest and profit motivation can help
 promote sustainability under certain conditions; and environmental
 legislation tends to foster sustainability.

Title: Impact of short-rotation coppice on water and land resources 
Abstract:
 The European Union is focusing on increasing renewable energy sources. One
 of these sources, known as short-rotation coppice (SRC), involves planting
 wood, as an energy carrier, on agricultural sites. By presenting a
 literature research, this paper studies the advantages and disadvantages
 of SRC in relation to its effects on water and land resources. In terms of
 renewable energy sources, considering these effects in the current process
 of social reconstruction is essential for sustainable development. With
 regard to this, SRC is a key element in the environmental management of
 land and water.

Title: Regional governance vis-a-vis water supply and wastewater disposal: research and applied science in two disconnected fields 
Abstract:
 Water supply and wastewater disposal constitute a key stake in the
 sustainable development of urban regions. The provision of urban water
 management is often the responsibility of the municipalities. Currently,
 extensive governance challenges for the optimizing of water supply and
 wastewater disposal emerge. Based on an analysis of three German urban
 regions, the paper argues that there is an increasing need to enter into
 regional collaboration for the strategic further development of urban
 water management. From a spatial research perspective, therefore, the so
 far severely neglected intersection between infrastructure governance and
 regional governance is elucidated in its various dimensions.

Title: Managing urban riverscapes: towards a cultural perspective of land and water governance 
Abstract:
 Urban riverscapes are facing diverse demands concerning riparian uses,
 ecological, economic and social functionalities, and aesthetic questions.
 One of the main challenges today is the implementation of an integrative
 perspective on riverscapes to overcome the horizontal frontiers of
 traditional water management (water governance) and urban planning (land
 governance). Led by the theoretical framework of planning culture, the
 article shows the different rationalities and governance approaches from a
 cultural perspective. Finally, two quite different local planning cultures
 are outlined to illustrate the cultural variety with which the challenges
 of sustainable urban riverscapes are managed.

Title: The governance dilemma in the Flanders coastal region between integrated water managers and spatial planners 
Abstract:
 The Flemish coastal region has two major key challenges: coastal flood
 risk and risk of drought. As an answer to the first challenge, a new phase
 of land reclamation on sea is proposed, fitting into its historical path
 dependence. This, however, will aggravate the second challenge, and
 contradict the principles of integrated water resources management (IWRM).
 The two challenges take place on two different governance frontiers of
 land and water governance, but have a growing mutual influence. It is
 argued that the coastal spatial governance regarding these two challenges
 suffers from a lock-in.

Title: A co-evolving frontier between land and water: dilemmas of flexibility versus robustness in flood risk management 
Abstract:
 Floods cause enormous damage on land and thus question the boundary
 between land and water in an extreme way. As floods increase in frequency
 and intensity, flood risk management must change from a resistance-based
 approach to a resilience approach. Whereas land uses require robust
 boundaries between land and water, the changing water system demands more
 flexible boundaries. This contribution discusses this tension from a
 theoretical perspective of resilience and co-evolution, using a
 socio-ecological systems approach. This offers a new perspective on the
 co-evolving frontier between land and water.

Title: Urban planning lock-in: implications for the realization of adaptive options towards climate change risks 
Abstract:
 Urban planning can play a potentially meaningful role in managing the
 risks of climate change. It is, however, unclear to what extent planning
 practice can be transformed in order to address these risks effectively in
 the global south. Using Johannesburg in South Africa as an illustrative
 case and the interrelated challenges of flood risks and informal growth as
 an example, it is demonstrated how the identification of a particular
 planning practice with historically informed values of justice
 substantially constrains the realization of adaptive planning options.
 Correspondingly, its implications for managing flood risks of climate
 change through planning under conditions of urban divide are outlined.

Title: Land and water governance on the shores of the Laurentian Great Lakes 
Abstract:
 The Laurentian Great Lakes Basin is large and complex, as is its
 institutional setting. Given these characteristics, Great Lakes boundaries
 are both horizontal and fluid, and governance at the Great Lakes
 water/land interface implicates at least four different frontiers of
 planning and management. While substantial multinational and sub-national
 policy regimes have formed over the last century to improve Great Lakes
 water quantity and water quality management, parallel arrangements have
 not formed to manage better shoreland boundaries and frontiers.

Title: Understanding and confronting cultural complexities characterizing water, sanitation and hygiene in Sub-Saharan Africa 
Abstract:
 This article uses theoretical discourses on risk to engage in a review of
 cultural and religious concepts that challenge the achievement of
 universal access to water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) in Sub-Saharan
 Africa. In the review, complex WASH behaviours evolve in relation to
 dominant situated experiences, often nested in cultural and religious
 beliefs and values, which tend to complicate risks and limit the
 attainment of universal WASH coverage in the subregion. The article argues
 that framing problems purely with respect to socio-economic limitations
 fails to account for the contextual triggers of WASH behaviours, making
 intervention programmes less likely to succeed.

Title: Data-sharing bottlenecks in transboundary integrated water resources management: a case study of the Mekong River Commission's procedures for data sharing in the Thai context 
Abstract:
 Integrated water resources management (IWRM) relies on co-ordination,
 co-operation and sharing of collected data amongst relevant organizations.
 This article presents the results of systematic research into
 non-technical barriers that influence IWRM-related data sharing in
 transboundary contexts, with a focus on the Mekong River Commission's
 procedures for data sharing in Thailand. The current extent of data
 sharing is quite limited. The main bottlenecks hindering relevant Thai
 organizations' sharing data across national boundaries appear to be a
 perception of limited gains, and concerns for national security. The
 article concludes that data sharing for IWRM implementation cannot be
 radically improved without significant changes in the mindsets of the
 relevant organizations, and suggests how to achieve this.

Title: Water service delivery in Kenya and Ghana: an area-based assessment of water utility performance 
Abstract:
 This paper explores through case studies the quality of water service
 delivery in four different water utilities in Kenya and Ghana. The
 research confirms that the utilities' current performance indicators by
 themselves are insufficient to assess the access of users to good-quality
 water service delivery. The case studies show that low-income populations
 receive a poor quality of water service delivery. The paper concludes that
 benchmarking needs to be complemented with a more in-depth analysis of the
 water service delivery by water providers.

Title: The human right to water and sanitation: is the obligation deliverable? 
Abstract:
 The concept of the human right to water can be traced to the Mar del Plata
 water conference that took place in Argentina in 1977. A quarter of a
 century later, the United Nations Committee on Economic, Social and
 Cultural Rights (CESCR) gave a major boost to the concept by recognizing
 it in a separate comment. This was further strengthened by two resolutions
 by the United Nations General Assembly and the Human Rights Council - both
 adding the right to sanitation. This article discusses the evolution of
 the right and the challenges facing its implementation, and addresses the
 question of whether this obligation is indeed deliverable.

Title: Factors influencing water level changes in China's largest freshwater lake, Poyang Lake, in the past 50 years 
Abstract:
 This study analyses the changing characteristics in the level of Poyang
 Lake during the period 1960-2010. Results show that the changing stage of
 annual lake level variations is evident, and average onset time of the
 lake dry season has advanced since the 1990s. Investigation indicates that
 the Yangtze River discharge has a greater impact on annual lake level
 variations than the lake's catchment inflow. Climate change in the Yangtze
 River basin since the 1990s is possibly the precondition for the advance
 of the lake dry season, which is further aggravated by the effects of the
 Three Gorges Dam in the 2000s.

Title: Water productivity and water footprint: misguided concepts or useful tools in water management and policy? 
Abstract:
 Water productivity (WP) and water footprint (WFP) are popular concepts in
 research and discourses on water management. Yet there are concerns about
 their theoretical validity and practical value. This paper shows that the
 water production function, the concept with a sound theoretical
 foundation, is the basis for WP. Total WFP is the reciprocal of WP. The
 practical value of WP and WFP depends on the context of water use and
 stress. Maximizing WP, not a panacea to all water problems, mainly suits
 arid rainfed areas. In other regions, economic and marginal WP for
 increasing overall production should take precedence in water management
 and policy decisions.

Title: Developing partnership approaches for flood risk management: implementation of inter-local co-operations in Austria 
Abstract:
 This article relates how catchment-wide partnership agreements have been
 used in approaching flood risk management in Austria. Upstream-downstream
 co-operations are clearly influenced by a number of factors, where the
 combination of these interdependences can create specific conditions that
 alter the opportunity for effective governance arrangements in a local
 scheme approach. We present the motivations and drivers of the creation of
 inter-local co-operations in flood risk management, focusing especially on
 the main barriers and challenges. Although a partnership approach may be
 seen as an 'optimal' solution for flood risk management, in practice there
 are many limitations and barriers to establishing these collaborations.

Title: One step at a time: international law and the duty to cooperate in the management of shared water resources 
Abstract:
 Analyzing the dynamics of international cooperation, this article
 describes the role of international law in the process. It illustrates
 that international law is a tool to achieve mutually beneficial relations
 and can be a driver for cooperation. Describing how these dynamics apply
 in the context of cooperation on transboundary rivers, the article traces
 the emergence of the general duty to cooperate in international water law
 as a legal response to the interdependence and coordination requirements
 in the management and development of shared water resources.

Title: Benefit-sharing and upstream/downstream cooperation for ecological protection of transboundary waters: opportunities for China as an upstream state 
Abstract:
 For obvious reasons, upstream states have tended to favour the principle
 of equitable and reasonable utilization while downstream states invoke the
 duty to prevent significant transboundary harm. However, while downstream
 states seek to rely on ecosystem services safeguarded by upstream states,
 harm can flow in both directions with restrictions on water utilization
 impacting on upstream interests. Benefit-sharing arrangements which take
 account of emerging conceptual methodologies for ecosystems protection can
 play a major role in reconciling the interests of upstream and downstream
 states.

Title: Approaches to investment in Chinese transboundary waters 
Abstract:
 This article identifies three methods of Chinese investment in
 transboundary waters: (1) investment in waters upstream from its own
 state; (2) cooperative investment in a transboundary body of water in a
 neighbouring state; and (3) cooperative investment in a transboundary body
 of water which forms the border between two states. On the basis of this
 introduction, the article explores and analyzes the challenges faced by
 Chinese investments in transboundary waters and identifies approaches to
 respond to these challenges, including multilateral dispute settlement
 mechanisms, data sharing and communication, as well as following the
 general principles of international law.

Title: Mapping Asia's trans-boundary waters, with a focus on China 
Abstract:
 National interest, enhancing the nation's wealth and welfare, and
 fostering development are factors cited for the awareness of the need of
 accurate and detailed topographic maps. These aspects are clearly spelt
 out in China's Law No. 75 of 2002. An overview of the status of mapping in
 China in the context of overall management of its trans-boundary rivers is
 presented. Public access to these graphics is restricted in this regional
 context; they are available only to bona fide users. The importance of
 maps in the context of the trans-boundary water discourse is discussed.

Title: China's southbound transboundary river basins: a case of asymmetry 
Abstract:
 An overview is presented of the contemporary societal and environmental
 development situation in the six major transboundary river basins that
 drain south from China: the Red River, Mekong, Salween, Irrawaddy,
 Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna and Indus. The overall societal and
 environmental vulnerability of the basins is assessed using
 multidimensional river basin vulnerability analysis. The analysis shows
 that while China has a fairly low level of vulnerability in these basins,
 its downstream influence is substantial. This setting offers a plethora of
 opportunities for transboundary cooperation and calls for a high level of
 responsibility from the upstream riparian countries.

Title: Benefit sharing in the Mekong River basin 
Abstract:
 This study aims to evaluate the extent to which the cooperative
 relationship between China and the downstream countries in the Mekong
 River basin has evolved in relation to the various benefits shared between
 these riparian countries from the 1990s to the present. Benefit sharing is
 deployed as an analytical framework. Larger benefits obtained through
 cooperation have led China to become more cooperative with the downstream
 countries, as seen in the Greater Mekong Subregion programme. The
 establishment of a new form of cooperation in the river basin hinges upon
 the ability to share the socio-economic, political, and energy security
 benefits.

Title: An analysis of Turkey's water diplomacy and its evolving position vis-à-vis international water law 
Abstract:
 This article analyzes Turkey's transboundary water policy by examining its
 institutional framework and basic principles. It explores the reasons why
 Turkey voted against the UN Watercourses Convention. Turkey's
 harmonization with the water law of the European Union is also scrutinized
 with an aim to assess its implications for transboundary water policy
 making. Turkish water diplomacy faces new challenges, such as the
 devastating impacts of prolonged droughts as well as ongoing instability
 and conflicts in Syria and Iraq. Hence, it is imperative for Turkey to
 systematically reconcile its water policy objectives in accordance with
 the global norms that are adopted in this field.

Title: Transboundary water management: lessons learnt from North America 
Abstract:
 This article examines the history of the International Joint Commission
 (IJC) and the 1909 Boundary Waters Treaty (BWT), as well as the evolution
 of the IJC from considerations of water allocations predominantly to an
 ecosystem approach via the International Watershed Initiative. It also
 explores how environmental factors led to the formation of new
 institutional arrangements such as the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement
 (GLWQA) of 1972 and further explains how the ecosystem approach was
 applied and remedial action plans were developed and implemented to deal
 with pollution issues in the Great Lakes. The article looks at innovations
 in cooperation and concludes with lessons that can be learnt from the IJC.

Title: Do good fences make good neighbours? Canada-United States transboundary water governance, the Boundary Waters Treaty, and twenty-first-century challenges 
Abstract:
 This article analyzes the rescaling of transboundary water governance and
 explores challenges and opportunities for the twenty-first century. The
 analysis is grounded in the example of the Canada-United States
 transboundary water governance regime, and asks two questions: What are
 the lessons learned since Canada and the United States first signed the
 Boundary Waters Treaty 100 years ago? And what is the potential of
 rescaling to influence the tension between the 'sovereign rights' of a
 nation and transboundary water governance protocols based on 'good
 neighbourliness'?

Title: The UN Peacebuilding Commission and the potential of water in post-conflict development, governance and reconciliation 
Abstract:
 This paper examines the extent to which the UN Peacebuilding Commission
 (UNPBC) has considered the 'peacebuilding potential of water'. Based on an
 analysis of documentation of 2006-14, it is argued that the UNPBC has paid
 significant attention to the role of water in post-conflict development,
 governance and reconciliation. However, given the UNPBC's overall work
 output, the consideration that water has received as a peace-building tool
 should not be overstated. While a stronger integration of water into
 peace-building would be desirable in principle, decisions must be made on
 a country-by-country basis, taking into account peace-building priorities,
 local context and availability of donor support.

Title: Against the current: transboundary water management in small states on two continents 
Abstract:
 In general, studies on regional integration and transboundary water
 management (TWM) focus on the relationships between large states. Instead,
 this paper analyses TWM in relation to two cross-border cases involving
 small states: Germany-Luxembourg and Mexico-Belize. Small states are
 significant due to their presumed adherence to regional governance and
 vulnerability to external shocks, especially those of climate change and
 environmental threats. Specifically, the article asks: How well do small
 states implement regional water governance models, especially in
 cross-border contexts? It concludes that the interpersonal bargaining and
 consensus-building that characterizes small state governance limits
 effective TWM.

Title: A perfect storm: the causes and consequences of severe water scarcity, institutional breakdown and conflict in Yemen 
Abstract:
 Yemen faces a dire water availability crisis, with groundwater being
 extracted at four times the rate of natural recharge and the capital,
 Sana'a, at risk of running out of water altogether. Yemen's capacity to
 adapt to water scarcity has been undermined by misrule, weak institutions
 and patronage-driven politics that have eroded traditional tribal
 mechanisms of water governance and conflict management without leaving a
 viable alternative in their place. Using material gleaned from interviews
 with water specialists, this article investigates the forces impeding
 water reform and the mechanisms mediating the relationship between water
 scarcity, institutional dysfunction and violent conflict in Yemen.

Title: Water allocation reform: what makes it so difficult? 
Abstract:
 The increasingly urgent reform of water allocation is challenged by the
 complexity of the political dimension, in particular the need to reconcile
 often competing objectives such as food and energy security and green
 growth. Moreover, these objectives are unstable, and allocation regimes
 have to adjust to shifting priorities and circumstances at the lowest cost
 to society. Climate change generates additional uncertainty in water
 availability and demand. This calls for robust allocation regimes that can
 adjust, reallocate and reduce water allocation in an organized way.

Title: The human right to water and foreign investment: friends or foes? 
Abstract:
 States have a duty to respect, protect and fulfil the human right to
 water. Water-related foreign investment, governed by international
 investment agreements (IIAs) that do not yet incorporate human rights
 provisions, can have both positive and negative impacts on human rights.
 It is argued here that the right to water could be used as an argument to
 justify measures taken against water-related investments in disputes
 between host states and foreign investors. While arbitral tribunals have
 not yet accepted this argument, it might be accepted in the near future as
 IIAs incorporate human rights provisions.

Title: China's practice on the non-navigational uses of transboundary waters: transforming diplomacy through rules of international law 
Abstract:
 China's abundant transboundary water resources face new challenges as
 demands increase, internally and externally. As China seeks new ways to
 cooperate with its riparian neighbours, more attention is being paid to
 international water law in the evolving diplomatic practice across the
 region. China's (mostly) bilateral transboundary water cooperation is here
 characterized as 'responsive diplomacy'. This paper explores China's state
 practice in this context and concludes by recommending that it moves from
 'responsive' towards 'preventive' diplomacy. The author offers strategic
 and policy responses in order to effect this change.

Title: Identifying China's transboundary water risks and vulnerabilities - a multidisciplinary analysis using hydrological data and legal/institutional settings 
Abstract:
 This paper identifies the vulnerabilities and risks linked with China's
 transboundary waters through an analysis of hydrological data and the
 legal and institutional settings. The risks and vulnerabilities arise in
 three areas: (1) serious issues of water security arise, both internally
 and externally, relating to water quantity and water quality; (2)
 transboundary waters management is hampered by weak capacity across the
 region; and (3) underdeveloped legal regimes, including procedural
 requirements for the exchange of information, prior notification and early
 warning mechanisms, make it difficult to realize effective international
 transboundary water cooperation.

Title: Water security in Himalayan Asia: first stirrings of regional cooperation? 
Abstract:
 The challenges of freshwater cooperation and the links between the global
 policy agenda and national water management are more obvious and easier to
 spell out at a regional level than in the global arena. By analysing how
 the existing regional regime within Himalayan Asia contributes to the
 development of international water law, this paper identifies gaps in our
 current understanding of regional approaches in international law and
 outlines pathways for addressing them.

Title: Transboundary water cooperation on the Yarlung Zangbo/Brahmaputra - a legal analysis of riparian state practice 
Abstract:
 The Yarlung Zangbo/Brahmaputra, shared by China, India, Bhutan and
 Bangladesh, lacks a comprehensive legal framework. Following an overview
 of the basin, the paper analyses state and treaty practice through a legal
 lens, comparing the riparian state positions, based on their approaches to
 sovereignty. Finding fragmented transboundary water cooperation across the
 basin, two possible approaches that might help are explored. Taking
 inspiration from the hydropower projects on parts of the watercourse, and
 from existing multilateral environmental agreements, it is queried whether
 future cooperation might be fostered through legal arrangements for joint
 exploitation, or through joint protection under multilateral environmental
 agreements.

Title: Transboundary groundwater governance in the Guarani Aquifer System: reflections from a survey of global and regional experts 
Abstract:
 To understand transboundary groundwater governance in the South American
 Guarani Aquifer System, we surveyed global and regional experts about the
 region's groundwater quantity and quality, ownership and rights, and
 regulation and administration. Respondents (1) perceived groundwater
 quality and withdrawal as under-regulated, and relevant information and
 data as inadequate; (2) suggested that contamination and overdrafting
 remain mostly incipient and localized along international borders; and (3)
 viewed groundwater as a shared resource administered by the state for the
 public, rather than as private property. Respondents suggested that while
 there is progress towards implementing a formal transboundary aquifer
 agreement, local-to-national-scale governance is important.

Title: Evolution of water management in coastal Bangladesh: from temporary earthen embankments to depoliticized community-managed polders 
Abstract:
 This article examines the historical evolution of participatory water
 management in coastal Bangladesh. Three major shifts are identified:
 first, from indigenous local systems managed by landlords to centralized
 government agencies in the 1960s; second, from top-down engineering
 solutions to small-scale projects and people's participation in the 1970s
 and 1980s; and third, towards depoliticized community-based water
 management since the 1990s. While donor requirements for community
 participation in water projects have resulted in the creation of
 'depoliticized' water management organizations, there are now increasing
 demands for involvement of politically elected local government
 institutions in water management by local communities.

Title: Drought, distress, and a conditional cash transfer programme to mitigate the impact of drought in Bihar, India 
Abstract:
 Paddy - Bihar's staple crop - is vulnerable to drought, primarily due to
 the high cost of irrigation. In 2008, the Bihar government launched a
 conditional cash transfer scheme to subsidize diesel for irrigation in
 drought-affected areas. We show that this scheme has not been effective in
 mitigating the impact of drought on paddy production. A primary survey of
 potential and actual beneficiaries shows that low awareness and
 penetration among smallholders, alongside uncertainties and delays in the
 disbursal of the subsidy, make it ineffective. We suggest that in states
 with limited capacity, such ad hoc subsidies are unlikely to protect
 smallholders from weather shocks.

Title: Performing the success of an innovation: the case of smallholder drip irrigation in Burkina Faso 
Abstract:
 Over the last 15&nbsp;years, smallholder drip irrigation has gained almost
 unanimous popularity as an effective tool to achieve the combined goals of
 sustainable water use, food security and poverty alleviation in the
 developing world. Based on a study in Sub-Saharan Africa, this article
 shows that this popularity does not stem from what the technology does in
 farmers' fields, but is the result of the concerted efforts of a number of
 key spokespersons to align it with the projects and interests of a variety
 of actors, including development agents, researchers, NGO staff and pilot
 farmers.

Title: Using backcasting to explore ways to improve the national water department's contribution to good groundwater governance in South Africa 
Abstract:
 Backcasting defines a vision of a desirable future and then analyzes the
 actions required to realize that vision. This article uses backcasting to
 explore ways to improve the national government's contribution to good
 groundwater governance in South Africa. Using the South African Department
 of Water and Sanitation as a case study, it is found that lack of
 strategic thinking and implementation are the main impediments to service
 delivery. Although isolated cases of groundwater 'overuse' and pollution
 can be found in South Africa, the main governance issues are currently
 competition between users for groundwater use, and inordinate delays in
 granting authorization for that use.

Title: Firms' willingness to invest in a water fund to improve water-related ecosystem services in the Lake Naivasha basin, Kenya 
Abstract:
 A valuation scenario was designed using a contingent-valuation approach
 and presented to decision makers in business firms in Kenya's Lake
 Naivasha basin to test how applicable a water fund might be as a potential
 financing mechanism for a payment for water-related ecosystem services
 scheme. The findings indicate that measuring a firm's willingness to
 invest in ecosystem services could help determine whether a firm would
 invest and engage with other stakeholders to pool their investments in
 ecosystem services. Linking the institutional decision-making behaviour of
 a firm and its willingness to invest in a water fund is the novelty of
 this article.

Title: Bilateral virtual water trade in agricultural products: a case study of Germany and China 
Abstract:
 Most studies in the field of virtual water trade concentrate either on the
 global, national or sub-national level, or on the water footprint of
 individual products. This article assesses the virtual water trade in
 agricultural products between Germany and China during the period
 2008-2010. Germany exported 192&nbsp;million&nbsp;m-super-3 of virtual
 water to China and imported 801&nbsp;million&nbsp;m-super-3 from China.
 Through the bilateral trade, Germany saved
 69.8&nbsp;million&nbsp;m-super-3 water, while China had a net water loss
 of 469.4&nbsp;million&nbsp;m-super-3. Thus, the global water loss amounts
 to 399.6&nbsp;million&nbsp;m-super-3.

Title: The relation between water pollution and economic growth using the environmental Kuznets curve: a case study in South Korea 
Abstract:
 The relation between economic growth and two key water quality indicators
 is assessed for South Korea's four principal rivers. The growth of the
 national economy accompanied a shift in environmental and industrial
 policy that fostered improved water quality. The relations between
 biochemical oxygen demand and GDP in the Geum and Nakdong Rivers and
 between chemical oxygen demand and GDP in the Yeongsan and Nakdong Rivers
 support the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis. In general, the
 turning point for improved water quality occurred at later economic
 development stages for industrial pollution than for biological pollution.

Title: Pollution of inland waters in Brazil: the case for goal-oriented initiatives 
Abstract:
 This article examines the use of output-based aid and payment for
 environmental services to reduce water pollution in Brazil. Two nationwide
 initiatives are reviewed. First, the output-based aid concept of the River
 Basin Clean-up Programme (PRODES) to tackle the problem of sanitation
 deficit in urban areas is presented. Second, the payment for environmental
 services scheme supported by Brazil's National Water Agency (ANA) through
 the Water Producer Programme to promote water conservation on rural
 properties is discussed. Both programmes are evaluated not only as
 financing mechanisms for water conservation but also as strategies for
 implementing Brazil's water policy.

Title: Crystal Drop Award Speech: Connecting the dots: a unifying theory for modelling in water engineering 
Abstract:
 Water engineering can be defined as an amalgam of engineering aspects of
 hydraulics, hydrology, ecosystems, and environmental and water resources
 as well as non-engineering aspects of social, economic and political
 sciences. Each of these looks at problems using different techniques that
 are based on different concepts and assumptions and that vary in
 complexity. The second law of thermodynamics (entropy theory) permits us
 to develop a theory that helps address these issues in a unified manner.
 This paper discusses rudimentary aspects of the entropy theory and
 illustrates its potential by addressing some of the above-mentioned
 issues.

Title: Hydropolitics in the Harirud/Tejen River Basin: Afghanistan as hydro-hegemon? 
Abstract:
 This paper analyses how control over transboundary water is being achieved
 in the Harirud/Tejen River Basin, located in Afghanistan, Iran and
 Turkmenistan. It illustrates how a weaker country like Afghanistan
 compensates its structural power deficit by relying on international
 support and taking advantage of its neighbours' foreign policy
 constraints. It also illustrates the importance of national power
 struggles to explain Afghanistan's unilateral resource capture strategy
 and related tactics at the international level. Despite achieving greater
 control, Afghanistan does not fit the definition of hydro-hegemon and its
 resource capture strategy may only have served as an entry point towards
 future dialogue.

Title: Using water insecurity to predict domestic water demand in the Palestinian West Bank 
Abstract:
 Household interviews were conducted in the Palestinian West Bank to
 examine the relationship between price elasticity, water insecurity and
 domestic water demand. Water insecurity weights were defined and
 quantified for each household for use in a multivariate regression model.
 The model demonstrated that (1) a water insecurity variable improves the
 ability to estimate price elasticity and that (2) increased water
 insecurity leads to higher levels of household water demand. The findings
 suggest that policy-makers can influence domestic water demand by
 addressing the supply constraints that underlie domestic water insecurity.

Title: Assessing the performance of water user associations in the Gash Irrigation Project, Sudan 
Abstract:
 In many countries, water user associations (WUAs) have assumed
 responsibility for managing irrigation systems, but their performance is
 known to vary markedly. This study assessed WUAs in the Gash spate
 irrigation project in Sudan, a decade after their initiation. Fieldwork
 involved a farmer survey, focus group discussions, benchmarking, and
 interviews with key informants. Overall, performance was found to be
 average, but with wide variation between individual WUAs. Performance
 indicators relating to jurisdiction over hydraulic boundaries and water
 delivery were poor. A lack of institutional arrangements and land
 ownership issues also strongly influenced performance. The management
 system for coordinating WUAs was found to be unnecessarily complex.

Title: Predicting water quality associated with land cover change in the Grootdraai Dam catchment, South Africa 
Abstract:
 The Grootdraai Dam catchment forms part of the Vaal River system, which is
 deemed to be the 'workhorse' of South Africa as it is located within the
 economic heart of the country. The status of water quality within the
 catchment is an important characteristic that needs to be investigated
 extensively due to its importance to the country's future economic growth.
 Intricate relationships between land cover and specific water quality
 parameters were quantified and unique model equations were formulated to
 predict water quality in the region. Urban and mining developments should
 be re-evaluated due to the accompanied significant hydrological
 consequences.

Title: A counterfactual assessment for interagency collaboration on water quality: the case of the Geum River basin, South Korea 
Abstract:
 Despite wide acceptance of 'collaborative governance' for addressing
 environmental issues, the existing studies focus on the process and often
 fail to produce 'outcome-oriented targets' necessary to get the process
 going. We address this dilemma by measuring the benefits from the
 'yet-to-be realized' interagency collaboration in water quality management
 by identifying the value of savings from reservoir reallocation in the
 Geum River, South Korea. We took the institutional features of total
 pollution load management (TPLM) and ran the simulations on water quantity
 (HEC-ResSim) and quality (CE-QUAL-W2). We assessed that the value of
 savings from reservoir reallocation would be far larger than the
 opportunity cost of such collaboration.

Title: An assessment of Kalpana-1 rainfall product for drought monitoring over India at meteorological sub-division scale 
Abstract:
 In this study, the potential of Kalpana-1 derived rainfall product is
 assessed for drought monitoring over India at the meteorological
 sub-division scale. A preliminary analysis is done for the anomalous
 south-west monsoon season of 2009 using two drought indices: percent of
 normal and Standardized Precipitation Index. A considerable difference
 between these two indices is observed even from the same rainfall data.
 The severe drought condition over most parts of India during June is not
 well captured by Kalpana-1 derived rainfall data. Additionally, due to
 underestimation of orographic rainfall by Kalpana-1 derived product, the
 meteorological sub-divisions located over these regions showed extreme
 drought condition throughout the season.

Title: The impact of water users' associations on the productivity of irrigated agriculture in Pakistani Punjab 
Abstract:
 This paper finds productivity-enhancing effects of watercourse-level water
 users' associations for farms at the tail of a watercourse and for those
 that rely exclusively on groundwater - two groups that are marginalized
 from surface water use and more likely to rely increasingly on
 groundwater. Yet, heavy reliance on groundwater consumes vast energy
 resources and leads to environmental degradation through overdraft and
 groundwater salinization. Improving the management of surface water
 through functioning watercourse-level institutions can increase use
 efficiency across water, energy and land resources through increasing
 agricultural productivity of those now least able to access fresh surface
 water resources.

Title: Application of a water-energy-food nexus framework for the Duero river basin in Spain 
Abstract:
 This paper proposes a framework for the identification, assessment and
 analysis of the water-energy-food nexus at a basin scale. This methodology
 is applied to the Duero river basin in Spain to detect the most important
 conflicts derived from water, food and energy interdependencies. Some of
 the most important issues are the limitations posed by rising energy
 prices for irrigated agriculture due to modernization, limitations to
 water treatment, and the possible emergence of new water demands for
 energy by hydraulic fracturing for oil and gas and enhanced bioenergy.

Title: Reuse of oil and gas produced water in south-eastern New Mexico: resource assessment, treatment processes, and policy 
Abstract:
 The Permian Basin of south-eastern New Mexico in the United States
 exemplifies the combination of rapidly expanding oil and gas production
 with freshwater shortages and aquifer stress. Reuse of saline produced
 water can provide a stable supply of water for drilling, fracturing and
 completion and minimize consumptive use of freshwater. We discuss water
 withdrawals and use by the oil and gas industry in this region, processes
 for reuse and recycling of produced water in place of freshwater, and
 operational and policy changes to help improve maximal use of all
 available water resources in this arid region.

Title: Water-food-energy nexus in Chile: the challenges due to global change in different regional contexts 
Abstract:
 This paper modifies the traditional representation of the
 water-food-energy (WFE) nexus by emphasizing the flows or influences
 between components. This allows a better representation of the dynamic
 nature of the WFE nexus in response to global change drivers. It applies a
 conceptual figure to synthesize the status and future challenges of the
 nexus in four regions of Chile that are currently under pressure due to
 climate variability, relative water scarcity and strong competition for
 water from different sectors.

Title: How would the Rogun Dam affect water and energy scarcity in Central Asia? 
Abstract:
 The construction of the Rogun Dam in the Amu Darya Basin to increase
 upstream energy generation creates potential trade-offs with existing
 downstream irrigation, due to the different timing of energy and
 irrigation water demands. The present analysis, based on a hydro-economic
 optimization model, shows that cooperative basin-wide maximization of
 benefits would lead to large increases in upstream hydropower production
 and only minor changes in downstream irrigation benefits. However, if
 upstream stations, including Rogun, are managed unilaterally to maximize
 energy production, hydropower benefits might more than double while
 irrigation benefits greatly decrease, thereby substantially reducing
 overall basin benefits.

Title: Governance of transitions towards sustainable development - the water-energy-food nexus in Cyprus 
Abstract:
 This paper presents a methodological framework to analyse sustainability
 innovations in the water-energy-food nexus and strategies for governing
 transition processes towards their widespread implementation. An
 application to a case study in Cyprus shows the interrelations of several
 sustainability innovations in the water, energy and food sectors, and
 specific learning requirements that need to be addressed to achieve a
 transition towards sustainable development. The framework helps to explore
 systematically responsibilities of different stakeholders for the
 implementation of innovations and thereby provides critical information
 for reflexive governance processes.

Title: The water-energy-food (WEF) security nexus: the policy perspective of Bangladesh 
Abstract:
 This paper provides a review of the emerging literature on the
 water-energy-food (WEF) nexus and then analyses the nexus in the context
 of Bangladesh. Results suggest that the WEF nexus is not yet recognized in
 the policy documents of Bangladesh, while conflicts over these resources
 are growing. In order to reduce this contestation, 'policy integration' is
 recommended for implementing key policies in the WEF nexus.

Title: Where is the power? Transnational networks, authority and the dispute over the Xayaburi Dam on the Lower Mekong Mainstream 
Abstract:
 Accounts of hydro-hegemony and counter hydro-hegemony provide state-based
 conceptions of power in international river basins. However, authority
 should be seen as transnationalized as small states develop coping
 strategies to augment their authority over decision-making processes. The
 article engages Rosenau's spheres of authority concept to argue that
 hydro-hegemony is exercised by actors embedded in spheres of authority
 that reshape actor configurations as they emerge. These spheres consist of
 complex networks challenging customary notions of the local-global
 dichotomy and hydro-hegemony. Hydro-hegemony is therefore not fixed. The
 article examines these processes by analysing the dispute over the
 Xayaburi Dam in the Mekong Basin.

Title: Application of payments for hydrological ecosystem services to solve problems of fit and interplay in integrated water resources management 
Abstract:
 This article assesses the role of payments for hydrological ecosystem
 services for integrated water resources management within the
 water-energy-food nexus. Current challenges of implementation are
 structured according to spatial fit and institutional interplay. An
 empirical analysis of several case studies of locally self-organized
 payments for hydrological ecosystem services in Nicaragua reveals
 potential contributions to operationalization of integrated water
 resources management and the water-energy-food nexus.

Title: The relevance of international water law to later-developing upstream states 
Abstract:
 The relevance of the main instruments of international water law to the
 hydraulic development projects of later-developing upstream states is
 explored, for a non-legal audience. Relevance is gauged by querying common
 misperceptions, checking the compatibility of the instruments, and
 considering their effect along the Nile, Jordan and Tigris Rivers and
 associated aquifers. Specific principles of international water law are
 found to support upstream development in theory, though its relevance is
 threatened by incompatibility of clauses between the instruments, the
 erosion of norm-building processes, and a shift away from the idea that
 territorial sovereignty over a fluid resource should be limited.

Title: Good transboundary water governance in the 2015 Sustainable Development Goals: a legal perspective 
Abstract:
 The goal of this article is to discuss whether the Sustainable Development
 Goals address the cooperation necessary to facilitate a system of
 transboundary water governance. For the purpose of this analysis, a Good
 Transboundary Water Governance Matrix has been developed. We find that
 transboundary water governance requires a holistic interpretation and
 implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals understood as a whole.
 In particular, good governance and, ultimately, sustainable development
 require stakeholders to focus not only on water (Goal 6) but also on Goal
 16, which focuses on international cooperation.

Title: A framework to assess plan implementation maturity with an application to flood management in Vietnam 
Abstract:
 Implementation failure is a long-known Achilles' heel of water and flood
 management plans. Contemporary planning approaches address the
 implementation challenge by using more participatory planning processes to
 ensure support for plans, assuming that this support will also benefit
 plan implementation. A proactive analysis of possible implementation
 issues during the planning stage is not yet common. This paper introduces
 a framework based on the motivation and ability of actors, supported by
 concepts of triggers, threats and opportunities. A case application for
 flood management in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, demonstrates the use of
 this motivation-ability framework to assess plan implementation maturity.

Title: Impact of planned water resource development on current and future water demand in the Koshi River basin, Nepal 
Abstract:
 The water resources of the Koshi Basin (87,311&nbsp;km-super-2) are
 largely untapped, and while proposals for their development exist, their
 impacts on current and future water demand are not quantified. The current
 study is the first to evaluate the impacts of 11 proposed development
 projects for hydropower generation and water storage. We find that 29,733
 GWh of hydropower could be generated annually and 8382 million m-super-3
 of water could be stored. This could satisfy unmet demand in the current
 (660 million m-super-3) basin situation and in future scenarios - i.e.
 population, agricultural and industrial growth - that are projected to
 have 920, 970 and 1003 million m-super-3 of unmet demand, respectively, by
 2050.

Title: Water conflicts in tropical watersheds: hydroeconomic simulations of water sharing policies between upstream small private irrigators and downstream large public irrigation schemes in Burkina Faso 
Abstract:
 A spatial hydroeconomic model was developed to analyze the competition
 between small private (SPIS) and large public (LPIS) irrigation systems
 for water control in tropical watersheds and applied to several water
 allocation policies in Kou watershed in Burkina Faso. Capital (cash and
 motorpumps) is the main constraining factor for SPIS expansion, and
 capital inflow accelerates SPIS development and reduces water flows for
 downstream LPIS users. As SPIS is more cost-effective and less water
 thirsty, LPIS needs to shift to less water-demanding and high-value crops
 or adopt more water-saving practices. Otherwise, only a sharp rice yield
 increase in LPIS can justify a reserved water quota for downstream users.

Title: Changing to more efficient irrigation technologies in southern Alberta (Canada): an empirical analysis 
Abstract:
 Results from an irrigator survey in southern Alberta (Canada) indicate
 that more than half of irrigators changed irrigation technologies during
 the five-year period (crop years 2007/08-2011/12) and this potentially
 improved application efficiency. Changes were made from flood irrigation
 to wheel-move sprinklers to high- and then low-pressure pivot systems. The
 intended future rate of change is lower than that experienced over the
 previous five years. Important factors causing these changes were
 identified: reducing irrigation application, labour and energy inputs, and
 increasing crop yields and quality. Econometric modelling shows that
 irrigators who have commenced the process of adopting more efficient
 sprinklers are full-time farmers, operate their farm as corporations or
 partnerships, obtain information from extension agencies, and are more
 likely to upgrade their technologies in future.

Title: Water productivity and water footprints are not helpful in determining optimal water allocations or efficient management strategies 
Abstract:
 In a recent paper in <italic>Water International</italic>, Amarasinghe and
 Smakhtin suggest that crop-water production functions provide conceptual
 support for using water productivity and water footprints to guide water
 allocation and to determine optimal management strategies. Their analysis
 is thoughtful and interesting. Yet, there is no conceptual foundation
 supporting the use of water productivity or water footprints in an
 optimizing context. Production functions do not provide conceptual
 support. Policy makers wishing to achieve the optimal allocation of water
 must consider incremental gains and costs, including opportunity costs and
 externalities. Ratios depicting average output or average value do not
 contain sufficient information for determining optimal water allocations
 or efficient management strategies.

Title: Hydrosocial territories: a political ecology perspective 
Abstract:
 We define and explore <italic>hydrosocial territories</italic> as spatial
 configurations of people, institutions, water flows, hydraulic technology
 and the biophysical environment that revolve around the control of water.
 Territorial politics finds expression in encounters of diverse actors with
 divergent spatial and political-geographical interests. Their
 territory-building projections and strategies compete, superimpose and
 align to strengthen specific water-control claims. Thereby, actors
 continuously recompose the territory&#x2019;s hydraulic grid, cultural
 reference frames, and political-economic relationships. Using a political
 ecology focus, we argue that territorial struggles go beyond battles over
 natural resources as they involve struggles over meaning, norms,
 knowledge, identity, authority and discourses.

Title: Disputes over territorial boundaries and diverging valuation languages: the Santurban hydrosocial highlands territory in Colombia 
Abstract:
 We examine the divergent modes of conceptualizing, valuing and
 representing the <italic>p&#xe1;ramo</italic> highlands of Santurban,
 Colombia, as a struggle over hydrosocial territory. P&#xe1;ramo residents,
 multinational companies, government and scientists deploy territorial
 representations and valuation languages that interact and conflict with
 each other. Government politicians and neo-institutional scientists wish
 to reconcile diverging interests using a universalistic territorial
 representation, through game theory. This generates a hydrosocial
 imaginary that renders invisible actors&#x2019; power differentials that
 lie at the core of the territorial resource use conflict. We conclude that
 this &#x2018;governmentality&#x2019; endeavour enables subtle, silent
 water rights re-allocation.

Title: Virtual water trade and the contestation of hydrosocial territories 
Abstract:
 Growing trade in virtual water -- the water used to produce exported
 products from agriculture and mining sectors -- affects local communities
 and the environment, and transforms hydrosocial territories. National and
 international water regulations reshape communities&#x2019; hydrosocial
 territories by changing water governance structures to favour export
 commodity sectors, often inducing strong contestation from local
 communities. Transnational companies formulate and enforce global water
 governance arrangements oriented toward strengthening export production
 chains, often through asymmetrical relationships with local groups in
 water-export regions. These arrangements compromise political
 representation and water security for both local communities and
 companies.

Title: From Spain&#x2019;s hydro-deadlock to the desalination fix 
Abstract:
 The inception of Spain&#x2019;s &#x2018;new water politics&#x2019; in 2004
 elevated seawater desalination from supplementary water supply to an
 alleged panacea for the country&#x2019;s recurrent water crises.
 Desalination became the subject of an extraordinary and delicate consensus
 that strategically aligned disparate (and sometimes unlikely) actors. This
 movement, the paper argues, represents a techno-managerial attempt to
 remove political dissent from the sphere of water governance, and to build
 regional and national consensus around a re-imagined productionist logic
 for Spain&#x2019;s hydraulic development. The paper outlines six
 contradictions of desalination, however, that together form a potential
 terrain for a repoliticization of the Spanish waterscape.

Title: Democratizing discourses: conceptions of ownership, autonomy and &#x2018;the state&#x2019; in Nicaragua&#x2019;s rural water governance 
Abstract:
 The interconnected discourses of ownership, autonomy, and state roles and
 responsibilities in the water sector are a strategic feature of the
 mobilization of water committees in Nicaragua. In particular, this paper
 argues that the effectiveness of these discourses in supporting water
 committees&#x2019; goals of political inclusion and legal recognition owes
 to how they reflect the day-to-day, historical and contemporary experience
 of water management at the grassroots, including how this work implicates
 the state. Ultimately, this case demonstrates how discourses &#x2018;from
 below&#x2019; can have a democratizing effect on water governance by
 helping to carve out space for marginalized actors&#x2019; policy
 interventions.

Title: Territorial pluralism: water users&#x2019; multi-scalar struggles against state ordering in Ecuador&#x2019;s highlands 
Abstract:
 Ecuadorian state policies and institutional reforms have territorialized
 water since the 1960s. Peasant and indigenous communities have challenged
 this ordering locally since the 1990s by creating multi-scalar federations
 and networks. These enable marginalized water users to defend their water,
 autonomy and voice at broader scales. Analysis of these processes shows
 that water governance takes shape in contexts of territorial pluralism
 centred on the interplay of divergent interests in defining, constructing
 and representing hydrosocial territory. Here, state and nonstate
 hydro-social territories refer to interlinked scales that contest and
 recreate each other and through which actors advance their water control
 interests.

Title: Diverging realities: how framing, values and water management are interwoven in the Albufera de Valencia wetland in Spain 
Abstract:
 The Albufera de Valencia is a coastal wetland in south-eastern Spain that
 has suffered from low water quality since the 1970s. This article explores
 two divergent framings or imaginaries of the Albufera as a hydrosocial
 territory. The first, the agro-economic waterscape framing, focuses on the
 economic and cultural importance of rice production. The second, the
 idyllic waterscape framing, emphasizes environmental values. The
 agro-economic waterscape frame is dominant in current water management.
 Stakeholders deploy highly diverging realities, and the political playing
 field is not level. Recognition and empowerment are the first steps
 towards more sustainable water management in the Albufera.

Title: Water scarcity and the exclusionary city: the struggle for water justice in Lima, Peru 
Abstract:
 Water management dilemmas represent a unique entry point into the
 challenging management of metropolitan areas, as in the case of Lima
 (Peru). A condition of water scarcity goes beyond the mere physical
 insufficiency of resources, but vividly contains the inadequacy of social
 relations responsible for the allocation, use and conservation of water.
 Lima&#x2019;s experience demonstrates the association between investment
 priorities, political agendas and corruption scandals leading to selective
 abundances and persistent scarcities that are perpetuated in a hydrosocial
 territory. The production of water scarcity has been predicated upon
 discriminatory practices associated with the reinforcement of uneven
 development and environmental injustices.

Title: PES hydrosocial territories: de-territorialization and re-patterning of water control arenas in the Andean highlands 
Abstract:
 This article explores how payment for environmental services (PES)
 approaches envision, design and actively constitute new hydro-social
 territories by reconfiguring local water control arenas. PES aims to
 conserve watershed ecosystems by repatterning and commoditizing the link
 between &#x2018;water service providers&#x2019; upstream and &#x2018;water
 consuming&#x2019; populations downstream. Two case illustrations from the
 Ecuadorian highlands are used to clarify how PES implementation -- though
 presented as if it were apolitical and neutral -- weakens locally crafted
 hydrosocial territories in favour of dominant interests. If consolidated,
 this depoliticized PES implementation fosters the consolidation of new
 (market-environmentalist) territories, subjects and interactions, further
 marginalizing the less powerful upstream communities&#x2019; livelihood
 strategies.

Title: Inclusive recognition politics and the struggle over hydrosocial territories in two Bolivian highland communities 
Abstract:
 This article applies a multi-scalar approach to examine the dominant
 human--nature interactions that underlie recent formalization policies and
 the (re)configuration of hydrosocial territories in the Tiraque Valley,
 Bolivia. From a political ecology perspective, it seeks to examine how
 hydrosocial territories are (re)configured by Bolivia&#x2019;s
 representative and inclusive discourses and forms of water
 &#x2018;governmentalities&#x2019;. It analyses how water territories are
 locally materialized by technological designs, legal structures and power
 relations that may promote unequal distribution of resources, water rights
 and decision-making power in conflict resolution processes. This article
 challenges &#x2018;pro-indigenous&#x2019; and inclusive discourses that
 promote formal recognition of customary &#x2018;water territories&#x2019;.

Title: Adjudicating hydrosocial territory in New Mexico 
Abstract:
 The US state of New Mexico shifted its management and legal treatment of
 water in the 20th century to a private property access right, weakening
 communal notions of water. This article explains how New Mexico has
 redefined and territorialized water rights as private property through the
 adjudication process and administrative governance rules. State
 adjudication of water rights disrupts horizontal social relations. The
 process also results in territorialization -- not of fluid water per se --
 but of water users themselves. As water users have adjusted to this
 rescaling of governance, the state has found new ways to govern users
 vertically through water-crisis measures.

Title: Bringing water markets down to Chile&#x2019;s Atacama Desert 
Abstract:
 The Chilean water model has been described as a textbook example of a
 successful free water market system. This paper analyses water-rights
 transactions to determine how this water market has behaved in the
 northern Atacama Desert. It questions the neoliberal assumption that
 Chile&#x2019;s unregulated water market has acted as an active tool to
 reallocate water towards uses that provide the highest economic value.
 Instead, it argues that the state is the central actor in water
 allocation. This problematizes the notion that the Chilean water model is
 one of the most unregulated in the world.

Title: A method to assess hydrological drought in semi-arid environments and its application to the Jaguaribe River basin, Brazil 
Abstract:
 This manuscript proposes a method to assess hydrological drought in
 semi-arid environments under high impoundment rate and applies it to the
 semi-arid Jaguaribe River basin in Brazil. It analyzes droughts (1) in the
 largest reservoir systems; (2) in the Upper Basin, considering 4744
 reservoirs, 800 wells and almost 18,000 cisterns; and (3) in reservoirs of
 different sizes during multiyear droughts. Results show that the water
 demand is constrained in the basin; hydrological and meteorological
 droughts are often out of phase; there is a negative correlation between
 storage level and drought severity; and the small systems cannot cope with
 long-term droughts.

Title: Characterizing local water governance structure in the Philippines: results of the water managers&#x2019; 2013 survey 
Abstract:
 This paper provides an empirical basis for local water-governance reforms
 in the Philippines using primary data from 299 water managers representing
 water districts, community-based water organizations, irrigators&#x2019;
 associations and local government water providers. Survey results showed
 that local water organizations are subject to various forms of laws and
 regulations; there are no set bases for water price determination; and
 water administration set-up varies from the formal to the loosely informal
 structures. Recommendations are offered towards responsive local water
 governance arrangements.

Title: Telecoupling in urban water systems: an examination of Beijing&#x2019;s imported water supply 
Abstract:
 Urban centres increasingly have difficulties meeting water needs within
 their hydrologic basins. To sustain urban water supply, cities and water
 source regions have increased telecouplings (socio-economic and
 environmental interactions over distances). To analyse these complex
 interactions, we apply the new telecoupling framework to the
 water-stressed megacity of Beijing&#x2019;s imported water supply. We
 found that Beijing&#x2019;s remote water sources have lower risk than
 local supply, but connections impact the sending systems. The telecoupling
 framework provides a standard, systematic and flexible tool for evaluating
 the sustainability of urban water supply. It also identifies a number of
 research gaps for future quantification efforts.

Title: Eco-compensation for watershed services in China 
Abstract:
 Eco-compensation for watershed services (EWS), or the more general
 payments for ecosystem services, is an incentive-based environmental
 policy instrument. With official documents and first-hand data from
 fieldwork, we analyze China&#x2019;s 17 EWS pilot schemes across 16
 provinces. Major environmental crises in China can partly be caused by the
 inadequate incentives for local governments to forcefully implement the
 environmental laws and policies. EWS schemes in China mainly target local
 governments in upstream and downstream watersheds, rather than the private
 entities in normal applications elsewhere, to provide economic incentives
 and to encourage their enforcement activities.

Title: A Bayesian method to support global out-scaling of water-efficient rice technologies from pilot project areas 
Abstract:
 This article present a Bayesian probabilistic method to support
 out-scaling of technologies from pilot projects. The method is applied to
 aerobic rice, a water-saving technology with probable global potential.
 The method assumes that areas similar to pilot sites are more likely to
 adopt than those that are different or unfavourable. Similarity is defined
 from climate, landscape and socio-economic attributes. Favourability is
 further evaluated by project specialists. Scaling out is not a simple
 linear process, so the method is proposed as a complement to learning
 processes. Results can support prioritization and strategic planning over
 specific geographic areas.

Title: Slums and informal housing in India: a critical look at official statistics with regard to water and sanitation 
Abstract:
 The official data on slums and basic urban services are important sources
 for Indian planners and policy makers. With regard to national and
 international benchmarks they are consulted in order to identify and
 target those in need of development schemes. This article takes a closer
 look at the official definitions and numbers and raises questions about
 their reliability and their comprehensiveness. By comparing these
 statistics with findings obtained during fieldwork undertaken between 2011
 and 2014 in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad questions emerge
 concerning the effectiveness in helping the most marginalized sections of
 society.

Title: Untying the Gordian Knot: unintended consequences of water policy for the gold mining industry in South Africa 
Abstract:
 Gold was central to the South African state from the outset. Its revenues
 sustained the pariah apartheid regime after 1961 in the face of economic
 sanctions and military spending. At that time, a regulatory regime arose
 that blurred the distance needed between regulator and regulatee.
 Water-related liabilities such as acid mine drainage were nationalized,
 burdening the post-1994 democratic government. Legal reform has sought to
 internalize those historic externalities through the application of the
 greenfields logic of global best practice. The unintended consequence is
 disinvestment, thereby hastening the nationalizing of all remaining
 liability. A new approach is needed.

Title: Mine site water-reporting practices, groundwater take and governance frameworks in the Hunter Valley coalfield, Australia 
Abstract:
 At mine sites in a stressed watershed, groundwater dominated licensed
 water take, and water-use productivity was dependent on site practices and
 constraints. Solutions for mining and water in this context include: (1)
 state-based water governance within a national framework; (2) information
 tools, including mine site water-reporting frameworks; (3) site water
 sharing and salt trading; and (4) technologies and leading practices.
 While water reporting has improved, evaluating the significance of
 hydrological changes over the long-term remains a challenge, particularly
 for groundwater and saline discharges to rivers.

Title: Non-discrimination and liability for transboundary acid mine drainage pollution of South Africa&#x2019;s rivers: could the UN Watercourses Convention open Pandora&#x2019;s mine? 
Abstract:
 In 1997, South Africa became an inaugural party to the United Nations
 Watercourses Convention. With the convention entering into force in August
 2014, South Africa is now bound by all of its provisions, including those
 relating to &#x2018;no significant harm&#x2019; and liability for
 transboundary pollution. Article 32, the principle of
 &#x2018;non-discrimination&#x2019;, provides recourse for foreigners
 experiencing or under imminent threat of transboundary harm to seek
 compensation in the jurisdiction where the alleged harm originated. This
 article investigates the possibility under the convention of pursuing
 liability for transboundary acid mine drainage pollution originating in
 South Africa harming the Olifants-Limpopo Rivers.

Title: A pilot study of the Social Water Assessment Protocol in a mining region of Ghana 
Abstract:
 The Social Water Assessment Protocol (SWAP) is a tool consisting of a
 series of questions on 14 themes designed to capture the social context of
 water around a mine site. A pilot study of the SWAP, conducted in
 Prestea-Huni Valley, Ghana, showed that some communities were concerned
 about whether the groundwater was potable. The mining company&#x2019;s
 concern was that there was a cycle of dependency amongst communities that
 received treated water from the mining company. The pilot identified
 potential data sources and stakeholder groups for each theme, and gaps in
 themes, and suggested refinements to questions to improve the SWAP.

Title: Unconventional oil and gas extraction in South Africa: water linkages within the population--environment--development nexus and its policy implications 
Abstract:
 The development of unconventional oil and gas resources, controversial in
 many countries, is currently being pursued by the South African
 government. This activity can have large impacts on the socio-economic and
 biophysical environments, especially water resources. In South Africa,
 little consideration has been given to water-related impacts from the
 perspective of the interrelated people--ecosystem linkages that are
 necessary for sustainable social and economic development. This article
 explores specific water-related linkages between facets of the natural and
 social environments pertaining to unconventional oil and gas extraction,
 with the objective of achieving more effective water resources management
 and water policy development.

Title: Lessons from Yanacocha: assessing mining impacts on hydrological systems and water distribution in the Cajamarca region, Peru 
Abstract:
 A major concern of mining activities is their influence on hydrological
 systems. This article highlights impacts on water flows and distribution
 in the Mashcon catchment in Cajamarca, Peru, one of those most affected by
 the Yanacocha mining project. Some important concerns are identified
 regarding changes in water flows, lowering of water tables, and decrease
 of base flows. These considerations indicate deficiencies in distributing
 actual water uses in relation to the allocation of water rights. Finally,
 the article discusses challenges for regulation of mining, including
 democratic processes for water management that require clear
 accountability in the context of local social needs.

Title: Disputes over land and water rights in gold mining: the case of Cerro de San Pedro, Mexico 
Abstract:
 This article analyzes different visions and positions in a conflict
 between the developer of an open-pit mine in Mexico and project opponents
 using the echelons of rights analysis framework, distinguishing four
 layers of dispute: contested resources; contents of rules and regulations;
 decision-making power; and discourses. Complexities in this study manifest
 how communities&#x2019; land and water rights are circumvented by
 governmental bodies and ambivalent regulations favouring the large mining
 company. This process is importantly reinforced by international trade
 legislation. Multi-actor, multi-scale alliances may offer opportunities to
 foster environmental and social justice solutions.

Title: Mining and campesino engagement: an opportunity for integrated water resources management in Ancash, Peru 
Abstract:
 Mining has become Peru&#x2019;s largest source of revenue. There is
 evidence that many of the economic and social benefits of this burgeoning
 industry are not evenly shared across society. Uncertainty over water
 quality impacts from recent mining activity has been raised by indigenous
 <italic>campesino</italic> (peasant) communities in the Ancash Region
 highlands of central Peru. Adding to the growing conflict amongst
 competing water users is the current reduction of water availability
 caused by regional glacial recession. Based on interviews and focus groups
 this article explores opportunities for integrated water resources
 management to improve opportunities for campesino engagement in water
 resources decision making.

Title: Questioning the effectiveness of planned conflict resolution strategies in water disputes between rural communities and mining companies in Peru 
Abstract:
 Disputes between mining companies and surrounding communities over the
 access to, control of and distribution of water form an important part of
 the socio-environmental conflicts that large mining operations in Peru are
 producing. In order to mitigate environmental impacts, solve conflicts and
 deal with opposition to mining operations, governmental actors and mining
 companies make use of a combination of legal and technical strategies.
 This article questions the effectiveness of these strategies, focusing in
 particular on the longer-term sustainability of water resources,
 water-based ecosystems and livelihoods. Based on research carried out in
 the surroundings of the Yanacocha gold mine in Cajamarca, the article
 shows that although legal and technical conflict resolution strategies are
 effective in temporarily diffusing tensions, they do not address the
 underlying political causes of conflicts. Instead of these seemingly
 objective, neutral and quick solutions, the analysis suggests that solving
 environmental conflicts around large-scale mining operations requires
 explicitly admitting and dealing with the fact that these conflicts are
 always inherently political, situated, complex and power-laden.

Title: The social conditions of self-organized utilities: water cooperatives in La Paz and El Alto, Bolivia
Abstract: 
 The development of water supply and sanitation networks in the cities of Latin America have mostly followed European models, with city-wide systems providing water through a network of pipes controlled by a single operator. This article explores alternatives to this system through a case study of La Paz and El Alto in Bolivia, where many families get their water from cooperatives. The objectives of this article, based on spatial analysis, questionnaires, interviews and observations, is to study the ways in which large technical systems and alternative systems potentially complement one another. The Bolivian case provides an original perspective on the social conditions of possibility for the collective ‘self-organization’ of water governance.

Title: Envisioning the future of cooperation on common rivers in South Asia: a cooperative security approach by Bangladesh and India to the Tipaimukh Dam
Abstract: 
 Using the historical trends in Bangladesh–India water disputes as a background, this article argues that if Bangladesh and India approach the proposed Tipaimukh Dam on the trans-boundary Barak River from a cooperative security angle, they will be successful in making a significant deviation from the sovereignty-based approach that has been a prevailing feature of negotiations on water issues in South Asia. By emphasizing the benefit from a ‘share the resources’ model, as opposed to a ‘divide the resources’ model, such an approach will be mutually beneficial and may have significant ‘spill-over’ repercussions for multilateral cooperation on rivers in South Asia.

Title: The river-border complex: a border-integrated approach to transboundary river governance illustrated by the Ganges River and Indo-Bangladeshi border
Abstract: 
 International rivers are conventionally understood as watercourses that cross national boundaries, while borders themselves are taken to be static and given – passive features over and across which riparian processes unfold. Employing such straightforward framings of international rivers and borders, academic studies and policy analyses of transboundary water governance perpetuate problematic ideas about the relevant scales and actors involved in international river conflicts and crises. Through a historical examination of the Ganges River and the Indo-Bangladeshi border, I introduce the ‘river-border complex’ as a new framework for reconceptualizing international rivers and borders as synergistic, co-constitutive and interdependent.

Title: Mortality awareness and water decisions: a social psychological analysis of supply-management, demand-management and soft-path paradigms
Abstract: 
 The beliefs underlying the water supply-management, demand-management, and soft-path paradigms are examined. Two questions are considered. First, can social psychology’s insights on mortality salience help explain the desire to control water and the dominant water supply-management paradigm? Second, can those insights also help explain the limited progress of demand management and water soft paths? We propose that mortality salience helps explain why individuals and societies seek to control water supply and, by extension, deny their connection to nature and limit consciousness of physical vulnerability. We briefly consider the implications of this perspective for water research, advocacy and policy.

Title: Incorporation of environmental flows in water allocation in Texas
Abstract: 
 An institutional framework and supporting water availability modelling capabilities are presented for integrating ecological needs into water resources management. Concepts illustrated by the Texas experience are relevant worldwide. Environmental flow standards with subsistence, base, in-bank pulse and over-bank flow components are established through a legislatively mandated process by stakeholder committees and science teams working in collaboration with government agencies. The flow standards incorporate ecosystem needs into water allocation and associated water availability modelling. Recognizing the complexities of defining and preserving environmental stream flows, expedited present action is combined with an adaptive management process for future improvements.

Title: A new transboundary freshwater dispute before the International Court of Justice
Abstract: 
 On 6 June 2016 Chile submitted its long-standing dispute with Bolivia concerning the Silala/Siloli watercourse to the International Court of Justice. Since 1997 Bolivia has contended that the watercourse is not international and that it therefore belongs exclusively to Bolivia. In its application, Chile requested that the court “declare that the Silala River system is in fact and in law an international watercourse whose use by Chile and Bolivia is governed by customary international law”. This case has the potential to produce a landmark decision in the international water law field since it is the first time that a dispute concerning the status of a watercourse as international has been submitted to the court. If the court finds that the Silala/Siloli is indeed an international watercourse, it will have a unique opportunity to clarify states’ substantive and procedural obligations with respect to its use.

Title: Hydrosocial territories in the context of diverse and changing ruralities: the case of Cochabamba’s drinking water provision over time
Abstract: 
 The article describes the history of drinking water provision of the city of Cochabamba, Bolivia, as an instructive case for analyzing the dynamic reconfiguration of hydrosocial territories and rural–urban relations over time. Cochabamba’s growing drinking water demand obliged the city to expand its access to water sources, involving diverse rural areas and groups of rural inhabitants. Using the concept of hydrosocial territories, the history of Cochabamba’s water solutions is explored, showing the need to analyze rural actors in a differentiated way in order to understand their (changing) role in the configuration of the hydrosocial territories.

Title: Hydrosocial territories, agro-export and water scarcity: capitalist territorial transformations and water governance in Peru’s coastal valleys
Abstract: 
 In recent decades, an agro-export boom has deeply transformed Peru’s coastal valleys, resulting in dramatic territorial changes and social inequality in the Ica Valley. This article explains how politico-economic and socio-institutional forces have triggered the emergence of a new ‘hydrosocial territory’, transforming the Ica Valley into a virtual-water extraction zone that produces luxury export crops for the North and China. In addition, it shows how these territorial reconfigurations have led to ecological damage, water scarcity and increasing rural–urban inequality sustained by a hegemonic development discourse that supports agribusiness-elite territorial dominance and discourages social unrest.

Title: Payment for ecosystem services in Lima’s watersheds: power and imaginaries in an urban-rural hydrosocial territory
Abstract: 
 In Peru, payment for ecosystem services is an increasingly popular mechanism to secure the transfer of water from rural to urban areas. This article analyzes the process of setting up such a scheme in the watersheds of Lima. The concept of hydrosocial territories and a power analysis are used to scrutinize how urban-based imaginaries and top-down approaches result in a disregard of local knowledge, rationalities, history of urban–rural relations and land ownership structures in the highlands. This could result in unintended outcomes of the scheme and in subordinating upstream communities to the city’s needs.

Title: The rural–urban equity nexus of Metro Manila’s water system
Abstract: 
 This article examines equity concerns and inherent conflicts related to rural–urban water supply allocation and use, with focus on Metro Manila. Going beyond the much-discussed difficulty farmers experience from an allocation policy prioritizing urban water requirements, it shows that inequity in raw water allocation is linked to, and further exacerbated by, inequities in urban domestic water provision. Moreover, it highlights the need for broader equity reviews, using the concept of the rural–urban water equity nexus to draw attention to key equity considerations across space and scale that otherwise might remain invisible.

Title: The political construction and fixing of water overabundance: rural–urban flood-risk politics in coastal Ecuador
Abstract: 
 Ecuador’s mega-dam project aims to control Chone city’s flooding hazards, but it submerges peasants’ territories – legitimized by ‘modern city/majority benefit’ versus ‘rural backward/sacrifice-able minority’ discourse. Presented as disordered, unruly and needing domestication, peasants must follow urban imaginaries and safeguard modern-urban progress. Policy-makers’ water overabundance discourse presents ‘flood risk’ as a natural and techno-managerial problem, hiding how unequal power balances establish ‘high-value’ (urban/elite) areas as protection zones and rural areas as sacrifice zones. Excessive water is stored in rural areas, neglecting peasants’ livelihoods and governance forms. The paper’s political ecology approach displays the ‘water overabundance’ discourse as a techno-political, naturalized construct that profoundly impacts rural–urban hydro-territoriality.

Title: Water crisis through the analytic of urban transformation: an analysis of Bangalore’s hydrosocial regimes
Abstract: 
 This paper explores intensified water crisis in Bangalore (or Bengaluru) in India by using the analytic of three hydrosocial regimes: the catchment-based regime, the hydraulic regime and the speculative urban regime. It uses a wide range of qualitative interviews, scientific reports and secondary sources to analyze shifting urban trajectories, agrarian relations and their interlinkages with water. Historical ruptures (in the realm of governance, urban growth and changing urban–rural dynamics) allow one to highlight the complex role of speculative logics that shape urban expansion and water scarcity.

Title: Colonizing rural waters: the politics of hydro-territorial transformation in the Guadalhorce Valley, Málaga, Spain
Abstract: 
 This paper explores how, historically, the utopian thinking built into Spain’s water policies has legitimized profound transformations of the Guadalhorce Valley’s hydro-social territory (in Málaga), also justifying water transfers from rural to urban areas. It analyzes how the ‘regenerationist hydraulic utopia’ has been materialized through different ‘governmentality strategies’. This intensified during Francisco Franco’s dictatorship, decaying gradually into dystopias that, to this day, express profound socio-environmental impacts: dispossession, displacement, uprooting and breaking up local water governance institutions and practices. Meanwhile, the urban and tourism industries in Málaga have been strengthened by giving them priority for water supply.

Title: Upsetting the apple cart? Export fruit production, water pollution and social unrest in the Elgin Valley, South Africa
Abstract: 
 This article explores the encounter between two contrasting visions of how the hydrosocial territory of the Elgin Valley of South Africa is, and should be, constituted and the conflicts over water pollution this gives rise to. It studies how poor urban dwellers try to upset the status quo of unequal access to land and water, which is linked to broader, historically entrenched, inequalities. White commercial farmers have succeeded in upholding the dominant hydro-territorial order by emphasizing the economic importance of their sector, by reducing complex political issues to technical challenges, and by capturing ‘democratic’ water institutions.

Title: Comparison of community-based adaptation strategies for droughts and floods in Kenya and the Central African Republic
Abstract: 
 This paper discusses community-based adaptation strategies for droughts and floods in small watersheds in Kenya and the Central African Republic. Survey data on adaptation strategies and annual rainfall data in the watersheds were used to assess the occurrence of floods and droughts, and their impacts. In both areas, the main adaptation strategy for floods is temporary relocation. For droughts, changing livelihood activities was the main adaptation strategy, while relief-seeking applied to both droughts and floods. We recommend greater preparedness, capacity building, and the diversification of livelihoods as means of enhancing adaptation.

Title: Household economic burden from seawater intrusion in coastal urban areas
Abstract: 
 This study quantifies the direct and indirect household economic burden of saltwater intrusion in Beirut, Lebanon, which experiences chronic water shortages. Incurred burdens include water purchase, reduction in the lifespan of household appliances, and building-level water treatment systems. Due to salinity, median household expenditure on water exceeds 6.5% of income, significantly higher than worldwide averages. A majority of affected respondents are willing to pay for mitigation measures to reduce salinity. The reported willingness to pay increased with education, income, salinity, and household expenditure on alternative water sources.

Title: Adapting to climate change in rapidly urbanizing river basins: insights from a multiple-concerns, multiple-stressors, and multi-level approach
Abstract: 
 Much of the research on climate change adaptation in rapidly urbanizing developing regions focuses primarily on adaptation or resilience as the goal, assumes that climate change is the major stressor, and focuses on the household or the city as the unit of analysis. In this article, we use findings from two rapidly urbanizing sub-basins of the Cauvery River in southern India (the Arkavathy and Noyyal sub-basins) to argue for a broader analytic and policy framework that explicitly considers multiple normative concerns and stressors, and uses the entire watershed as the unit of analysis to address the climate–water interaction.

Title: Assessing the economic impact of a low-cost water-saving irrigation technology in Indian Punjab: the tensiometer
Abstract: 
 This article assesses the impact of the tensiometer on the consumption of groundwater and electric power in paddy cultivation in Indian Punjab, and its subsequent economic benefits. We find that compared to the continuous flooding method, the tensiometer-based application of irrigation reduces water and power consumption by 13%, cutting variable costs by 7% without any yield penalty. If 30% of the paddy area is irrigated following tensiometer-based schedules, then the state could save a total of 0.67 million ha m of water and 1516 million kWh of electric power in 2010–2025, with aggregate economic benefits of US$ 459 million.

Title: Water option contracts for climate change adaptation in Santiago, Chile
Abstract: 
 Climate change–induced extreme events pose an important challenge for urban water managers. In Santiago (Chile), the total cost of such events can be reduced by an option contract that sets ex ante water prices and water volumes to be traded when certain triggering conditions are met. This article discusses two types of option contracts: water leasing to trade water from agriculture to urban uses during droughts; and a savings option contract to reduce urban water consumption during short-term turbidity events. We find that water option contracts are flexible instruments that improve the distribution of hydrological risks.

Title: Determinants of livelihood vulnerability in farming communities in two sites in the Asian Highlands
Abstract: 
 To identify the indicators of adaptive capacity that determine vulnerability of households, an intensive investigation was conducted in farming communities at two locations in the Asian highlands. Livelihood vulnerability was assessed, classified to four categories and regressed against current adaptive capacity using logistic regression. Household head’s education, irrigated land, non-agricultural income, and technologies used were associated with adaptive capacity. The strengthening of human, natural and financial capital is identified as the best means of managing risk in farming communities in this mountainous region.

Title: Managing the risks from the water-related impacts of extreme weather and uncertain climate change on inland aquaculture in Northern Thailand
Abstract: 
 Climate change will have significant impacts on inland aquaculture. This article assesses the robustness of a set of potential adaptation strategies for Northern Thailand using a rule-based assessment model to synthesize information from secondary sources, fish farmers, officials and experts. The net benefits of different strategy types vary substantially with water demand and fish demand, as well as future climate. No-regret and low-regret strategies are worthwhile under a broad range of conditions, but may not be sufficient to maintain profitability as the negative impacts of climate change unfold. The main implication is that adaptation pathways must be flexible.

Title: Synergy of climate change and local pressures on saltwater intrusion in coastal urban areas: effective adaptation for policy planning
Abstract: 
 This article examines the relative impacts of anthropogenic interventions and global climate change on the dynamics of saltwater intrusion in highly urbanized coastal aquifers. For this purpose, simulations of the impacts of sea-level rise and abstraction scenarios for the near future were undertaken for a pilot aquifer using a multi-objective 3D variable-density flow and solute transport model. We find that sea-level rise associated with climate change has less influence on the encroachment of salinity than anthropogenic abstraction, which has a more appreciable impact on saltwater intrusion through greater sensitivity to water consumption and seasonality.

Title: Informal water markets and community management in peri-urban Luanda, Angola
Abstract: 
 The majority of Angola’s peri-urban population still rely on informal mechanisms for water supply. This water is expensive and of poor quality, representing a significant household expenditure for the urban poor. The article uses qualitative tools and tracking of the supply chain to analyze the scope of the informal water economy in Luanda. Marketing water at the local household level involves significant trading in social capital. A financially sustainable model of community water management that builds on this neighbourhood social capital  has been adopted by the government for implementation across the country.

Title: Water challenges in the IGAD region: towards new legal frameworks for cooperation
Abstract: 
 The Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) was first established in 1986 as a regional integration organization addressing drought in the Greater Horn of Africa, i.e., Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan and Uganda. Since water resources in the region are transboundary, in 2012 the IGAD started developing a regional water policy and protocol. This paper shows how regional policy and legal frameworks may be established despite differences in socio-economic, climatic and other conditions, considering that while progress was made towards a legal framework for the Nile Basin, much work is to be done with regard to other shared water resources.

Title: The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam: the road to the declaration of principles and the Khartoum document
Abstract: 
 The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), which Ethiopia started constructing in 2011, presented major challenges to the notion of existing rights and uses of the Nile waters asserted by Egypt and Sudan. Through an incremental approach based on gaining time, Ethiopia succeeded in making the GERD a reality, bolstered four years later, in 2015, by the signature by the three countries of two instruments: the Declaration of Principles and the Khartoum Document. The article traces and follows the developments regarding the GERD since 2011, and the escalation of the dispute thereon with Egypt and Sudan, discusses the two instruments, and analyzes the new legal order emanating therefrom. It concludes with an examination of the opportunities forgone as a result of the riparians’ unilateral development plans, and those to be gained through cooperation.

Title: The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam: a benefit-sharing project in the Eastern Nile?
Abstract: 
 Negotiations over the GERD have not transformed the debate in the Eastern Nile from sharing water to sharing benefits. Nationalistic discourse used by the three governments, the political sensitivity of the Nile issue, cautious Egyptian approach towards Eastern Nile cooperation beyond the project, divisions within policy circles in Egypt on dealing with the project and with the NBI as a framework of cooperation, the failure of Egypt to adapt its water policies to expected changes in the post-GERD era, and the new power asymmetries in the Eastern Nile have affected, and will continue to affect, positions in ongoing negotiations, making it more difficult to reach a benefit-sharing deal.

Title: Cooperative filling approaches for the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam
Abstract: 
 Strategies for filling the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam and implications for downstream water resources are analyzed using a river basin planning model with a wide range of historical hydrological conditions and increasing coordination between the co-riparian countries. The analysis finds that risks to water diversions in Sudan can be largely managed through adaptations of Sudanese reservoir operations. The risks to Egyptian users and energy generation can be minimized through combinations of sufficient agreed annual releases from the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, a drought management policy for the High Aswan Dam, and a basin-wide cooperative agreement that protects the elevation of Lake Nasser.

Title: Filling the GERD: evaluating hydroclimatic variability and impoundment strategies for Blue Nile riparian countries
Abstract: 
 A modelling study is performed to evaluate interannual and decadal-scale streamflow variability into the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) reservoir and comparison of various filling strategies for hydropower and downstream releases to Sudan and Egypt from this dam. To capture these aspects, simulations of probabilistic streamflow via wavelet analysis are produced to define the propensity towards wetter or drier conditions for absolute, threshold and percentage-based filling strategies. Absolute filling strategies have lower uncertainty than percentage-based strategies, benefiting upstream planning; however, downstream releases may be near zero on occasion. Consensus among the riparian countries prior to initiation of filling is strongly encouraged.

Title: GERD: new norms of cooperation in the Nile Basin?
Abstract: 
 This article analyzes the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam both as an outcome of shifts in the regional hydropolitical dynamics in the past decade and as a catalyst of future cooperation developments in the Nile Basin region. First, it analyzes the GERD in the context of changing power relations, including a critical discussion of the role of multilateral cooperation process and norms. Second, it examines the GERD as a shaper of future hydropolitical dynamics, and how the complex trilateral cooperative process around the GERD (2011–2015) can represent a constructive step towards wider institutional transboundary cooperation and regional economic integration in the Nile Basin.

Title: An exploration of fairness in international law through the Blue Nile and GERD
Abstract: 
 The principle of fairness operates alongside lofty principles of international law, such as equity and justice. However, these concepts often face criticism for being too vague to shed any meaningful light on the practical interpretation and implementation of international law within specific fields. By analysing the cooperation between Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan on the Blue Nile, this paper seeks to address such criticism. It suggests that the concept of fairness does have value as a framework for analysing both commitment and compliance in international law; and that exploring specific contexts, such as legal developments related to the Blue Nile, helps give it further meaning.

Title: An ecological perspective on a river’s rights: a recipe for more effective water quality governance?
Abstract: 
 In several countries, the transfer of legal rights to rivers is being discussed as an approach for more effective water resources management. But what could this transfer mean in terms of a healthy river? We address this question by identifying the ecological requirements for naturally functioning rivers and then explore the demands which these requirements impose on society, the current policy responses to these requirements and whether the transfer of rights to the river could facilitate the preservation of healthy freshwater ecosystems.

Title: On the problem of the justification of river rights
Abstract: 
 This article aims to work out the social conditions that determine whether the communication of river rights finds success in society. Employing the context of hydropower development in the Mekong region, the article finds that an essentialist strategy which claims that river rights have unlimited ‘moral’ validity regardless of any of the decision consequences is unlikely to succeed. Instead, it is proposed that moral conflicts over river rights may ultimately only be resolvable ‘unmorally’, that is, by procedural legitimacy – and this is best captured by employing a methodological framework composed of thematic, social and temporal dimensions.

Title: The potential limitations on its basin decision-making processes of granting self-defence rights to Father Rhine
Abstract: 
 Recent grants of legal rights to rivers would seem to infuse traditional anthropocentric river governance with greater eco-centrism. Through a thought experiment, we scrutinize this proposition for the Rhine basin. We consider the governance implications of granting (procedural/material) rights to the river and elaborate on their implications for the three highly institutionalized regimes of the Rhine River of water quality, flooding and transport. Since we find that a shift to more eco-centrism has already occurred and since the right granted to the river would not be absolute, we deem radical transformations unlikely.

Title: Towards a rights-based approach in EU international river basin governance? Lessons from the Scheldt and Ems Basins
Abstract: 
 This article finds that the introduction of a rights-based approach in EU transboundary river basin management to remedy observed systemic difficulties and to better achieve legal water quality standards could be a next step in achieving integrated river basin management. However, its effectiveness largely depends on the willingness of member states to share river basin districts to subordinate their separate socio-economic interests to ecological needs, as well as to grant a clear mandate and partly transfer responsibilities and powers to a competent supranational authority.

Title: Why the Ganga should not claim a right of the river
Abstract: 
 This article examines the global history of a rights-based approach to nature and then focuses in on whether conferring legal rights on the River Ganga (Ganges) in India would help in its management or on the contrary produce a conflict between human rights and the right of nature. Finally, it considers the legal perils of articulating a universal right of a river by comparing the Ganga and Whanganui cases.

Title: Protection through property: from private to river-held rights
Abstract: 
 This article explores how private owners can protect bodies of water through private property rights. It compares the use of conventional property rights in the Netherlands and New Zealand with a novel approach whereby a New Zealand river owns itself.

Title: Legal personality and economic livelihood of the Whanganui River: a call for community entrepreneurship
Abstract: 
 Legislation in New Zealand dictates that the Whanganui River is a living entity and a legal person. Guardians uphold the river’s environmental, social, cultural and economic well-being. We provide a conceptual discussion of the river’s economic well-being, understood as the mutual enhancement of natural and human elements through community entrepreneurship that is based on human and non-human capabilities. We discuss human economic activity that preserves the right of the river to be free from pollution and form an integral part of the Māori culture and tradition, the improvement of Māori living conditions, and their rights to self-determination and prior consent.

Title: The changing face of river management in Victoria: The Yarra River Protection (Wilip-gin Birrarung murron) Act 2017 (Vic)
Abstract: 
 This article outlines the Yarra River Protection Act and the establishment of a statutory independent voice for the Yarra River, the Birrarung Council, in light of the historical legislative neglect of indigenous water management rights in the Australian state of Victoria. It then seeks to clarify the distinction between the Yarra River’s independent voice and the granting of legal personhood to the Whanganui River in Aotearoa New Zealand’s Te Awa Tupua Act. It concludes that the grant of legal personhood to a river, represented by a river guardian, will not necessarily meet the river management aspirations of Victoria’s Indigenous people.

Title: A case for granting legal personality to the Dutch part of the Wadden Sea
Abstract: 
 This article proposes that the Dutch Wadden Sea, a tidal wetland, can be protected by recognizing that it can own itself, in keeping with the emerging international trend of granting rights and legal personality to important ecosystems. Under Dutch law, legal personality could be granted to the Wadden Sea in the form of a ‘natureship’ (natuurschap), a legal form that perfectly fits into the Dutch legal system. The legal objective of the Wadden Sea Natureship could be to focus on maintaining the ecosystem in a healthy condition.

Title: The social discourses on market-based instruments to manage non-point-source water pollution in the Oldman River basin, southern Alberta
Abstract: 
 The Canadian province of Alberta has incorporated market-based instruments into recent policy to manage non-point-source pollution. Investigating context-specific social discourses through the Q-method provides a timely understanding of why these instruments have not been well implemented in southern Alberta, and may assist in developing their potential. This article identifies four distinct discourses, named Incentive Orienteers, Rural Advocates, Honest Brokers and Progressive Producers.

Title: Water quality management from source to sea: from global commitments to coordinated implementation
Abstract: 
 This article reviews links and gaps related to water quality in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. It uses these as a starting point to analyze challenges in water quality management at national and basin levels from a ‘source to sea’ perspective. Experiences in the Danube River, Black Sea, East Asian Seas and the Baltic highlight key issues to be addressed during the implementation of the agenda to achieve water quality objectives in fresh, coastal and marine waters. It assesses priorities for supplementary actions to be supported to improve prospects for achieving targets in these areas.

Title: Poor water service quality in developed countries may have a greater impact on lower-income households
Abstract: 
 This article analyzes the relationship between perceived service quality and averting behaviours and averting expenditures across prominent water service attributes, using revealed preference survey data from New Zealand water supply customers. It finds that nearly 50% of consumers undertake averting behaviours, investing substantial amounts in improving their water service quality. Unexpectedly, lower-income households were more likely to undertake averting behaviours for the same perceived service quality, and spent more in their averting behaviours. This suggests that the burden of low-quality service is greater on lower-income households, not only relative to income but in absolute terms.

Title: Adaptive or aspirational? Governance of diffuse water pollution affecting Australia’s Great Barrier Reef
Abstract: 
 The natural attributes of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, a UNESCO world heritage site listed for its natural beauty and biological diversity, are rapidly declining due to major threats from diffuse water pollution and climate change. The environmental, social, political and legal conditions that have enabled or blocked successful management of diffuse water pollution are analyzed. We find that the management approach has transitioned towards resilience-focused adaptive management of impacts from outside the marine park. Despite key enablers of adaptive governance, deep-seated political ideology is a major barrier to transformational adaptive governance to improve reef water quality.

Title: Farmer perceptions regarding irrigation with treated wastewater in the West Bank, Tunisia, and Qatar
Abstract: 
 Heads of households, farmers, and experts in wastewater and agriculture in the West Bank, Tunisia and Qatar were engaged in consultations to understand their farming/gardening practices, perceived benefits and risks of using treated wastewater, willingness to pay for various qualities of water, safe handling practices, and knowledge of local organizations and regulatory agencies. Most view wastewater as unsafe for reuse in agriculture, and users feel local monitoring and oversight are insufficient. Improving transparency of wastewater management and providing extension about the true risks and benefits of this practice will improve the success and safety of future reuse projects.

Title: Bringing back ecological flows: migratory fish, hydropower and legal maladaptivity in the governance of Finnish rivers
Abstract: 
 Historically, Finnish rivers supported vital populations of migratory salmonids. Presently, these species are more or less endangered due to extensive damming and hydropower production. In this article, we study the main legal and scientific drivers for re-evaluating some of the existing hydropower operations in Finland. We argue that there is a need for re-evaluation on the basis of legal obligations stemming largely from EU law and new scientific knowledge. Theoretically, our setting opens up a classical adaptive governance problem in how to address laws and past decisions that are based on outdated assumptions about the functioning of social-ecological systems.

Title: The adaptation potential of water law in Canada: changing existing water use entitlements
Abstract: 
 Recommendations to extend water law reform to include the adaptation of existing water entitlements goes against a basic principle of water law: to provide security of tenure to water authorization holders so they can rely on a specific volume of water. This paper evaluates how well subnational water law in Canada permits adaptive management to address existing water authorizations. With some laws allowing changes based on new scientific information, the public interest or planning, possibilities for adaptive water law in Canada arise that are instructive for other jurisdictions.

Title: The future of domestic water law: trends and developments revisited, and where reform is headed
Abstract: 
 A re-visitation of trends and developments in water legislation in the light of experience and new legislation from selected countries confirms the findings of prior stocktaking, while bearing out advances in many areas: achieving adaptability of regulatory water-allocation mechanisms; blending efficiency and equity of allocation; ‘greening’ of water laws; bridging the land–water divide; and giving customary and de minimis water rights their due. The human right to water, and access to justice, are emerging new trends. These, and the advances listed earlier, show the likely direction of future water law reform.

Title: The evolving framework for transboundary cooperation in the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System
Abstract: 
 The focus of this paper is the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System, shared by Egypt, Chad, Sudan and Libya, and the agreements and other instruments of cooperation in place among the four countries. These combined instruments bear witness to an evolutionary pattern of cooperation, centred on procedural norms and on a joint institution. In the author’s opinion, the four countries should strive to attain a more mature level of cooperation covering substantive norms and the settlement of disputes. The author recommends the UN Draft Articles on the Law of Transboundary Aquifers (2008) as a basis for such an agreement.

Title: Forestry management and water law: comparing Ecuador and Arizona
Abstract: 
 This article compares public–private partnerships dedicated to improving forestry management to protect water in the Paute River basin in Ecuador (FONAPA) and the Verde River basin in Arizona (the Four Forest Restoration Initiative). Both programmes create incentives for improved forestry management and suggest lessons for water management in general but may face legal challenges that require reforms. While there is scope for mutual learning between the programmes, such cross-fertilization is inhibited by differences in the legal status of water and forest resources in the two systems.

Title: Understanding water disputes in Chile with text and data mining tools
Abstract: 
 This article provides a multidimensional study based on data and text mining of prosecuted disputes on water rights in Chile, and an analysis of the state’s capacity, particularly of the institutions related to water regulation. This study shows not only a substantial increase of legal disputes regarding water rights over the years (1981–2014), but also clear patterns in the geographic location of these conflicts, as well as in the types of legal actions, arguments and strategies used in their pursuit. Through a topic analysis, we find a growing diversification over time of the subjects contained in the legal claims, suggesting an increase in structure and complexity.

Title: Desalination and water security in the US–Mexico border region: assessing the social, environmental and political impacts
Abstract: 
 In the western US–Mexico border region, both countries’ authorities look to desalination as a means to meet increased demands for dwindling supplies. In addition to several existing or planned desalination plants, plans exist to develop projects along Mexico’s coasts to convert seawater into freshwater primarily for conveyance and consumption in the United States. Even though desalination systems have the potential to increase water supply in the region, there are associated consequences, costs and constraints. To understand the impacts of such binational desalination systems, this paper assesses, through a water-security framework, the case of a proposed desalination plant on the Upper Gulf of California. The analysis suggests that for binational desalination systems, there are several key areas of impact against which the benefits of increased water supply must be weighed.

Title: Criteria for assessing the level of land–water integration in planning instruments in Andalusia, Spain
Abstract: 
 Academia has come to realize that integrating water management and land resources can deliver a significant contribution to achieving sustainable outcomes. However, its implementation in daily practice is lagging behind. In order to address this knowledge–practice gap, this paper suggests the integration of land and water resources management can be improved through the incorporation of specific criteria in the territorial plans and river basin management plans. The proposed criteria were used to develop a methodology to assess the level of integration between water resources and land uses in current planning practice. The case of Andalusia in Spain provided the empirical focus.

Title: Building hydroliteracy among stakeholders for effective water benefit sharing in the Andes
Abstract: 
 This article integrates social and biophysical analysis to identify water-sharing opportunities in three basins across the northern Andes: the Rio Santa in Peru; the system of source watersheds for the cities of La Paz–El Alto in Bolivia; and the Coello-Combeima watershed in Colombia. The work included building knowledge of hydrology (hydroliteracy) among stakeholders to enable them to develop more technically sophisticated analyses of alternative management strategies for their respective basins. The participatory processes, including the development of alternative scenarios for water benefit sharing, provided a valuable interface for negotiating arrangements that are both biophysically and socio-economically sustainable, with tangible results in all three watersheds. Empowered with new technical skills and knowledge of their watersheds, stakeholders were able to achieve outcomes that will benefit all.

Title: Agricultural land investments and water management in the Office du Niger, Mali: options for improved water pricing
Abstract: 
 Large-scale agricultural land investments in Africa are often considered solely from the land perspective. Yet land, water and other natural resources are closely interlinked in agricultural production and in sustaining rural livelihoods. Such investments involving irrigation will potentially have implications for water availability and utilization by other users, making it imperative to regard water as an economic rather than a free good. Focusing on a vast irrigable area in Mali with recent large-scale investments, a bio-economic model was used to demonstrate that an improved water valuation system is needed to balance different water users’ needs while ensuring adequate environmental flow.

Title: Tourism leads to wealth but increased vulnerability: a double-edged sword in Lijiang, South-West China
Abstract: 
 Tourism development in Lijiang, China, has helped lift many people out of poverty but has also led to increased pollution and water scarcity, which climate change is predicted to exacerbate. A shift towards tourism and cash crops has reduced the diversity of crops and livestock used by agrarian households. These effects are explored in two villages between 2008 and 2013 using a multi-method approach. It is found that local water governance does not follow any of the best practice principles outlined in the international literature. Improved water governance is urgently needed to reduce household vulnerability in the Lijiang area.

Title: Creating accountability: representation and responsiveness of the irrigation bureaucracy in Punjab, Pakistan
Abstract: 
 Here, more than 100 years of incumbency reports on officers of the irrigation bureaucracy of Punjab, Pakistan, are presented and analyzed. The data highlight how representation changed before and after partition within the irrigation bureaucracy. The data show that the irrigation bureaucracy increased through staffing its representation of local communities and is in its appointments responsive to elected representatives. Therefore, it is argued that empowerment of the local community can be achieved without irrigation management transfer but through the irrigation bureaucracy itself.

Title: Field investigations of the 2013–14 drought through quali-quantitative freshwater monitoring at the headwaters of the Cantareira System, Brazil
Abstract: 
 Integrating seasonal patterns of water availability and land-use/land-cover change is crucial in watershed planning. Often, these are not considered under hydrological extremes affecting decision making. This article presents results from a multi-site, nested catchment experiment carried out during a dry period in the Cantareira Water Supply System, South-East Brazil, linking quali-quantitative freshwater monitoring to land-use/land-cover change. Results from 17 catchments show regional behaviour for nitrate loads and drainage areas (0.66–925 km2). An inverse correlation between forest cover and water yield was observed. Despite forest growth in spatial extent, nutrient loads showed potential hazards for water security.

Title: Ad hoc legal mechanisms governing transboundary aquifers: current status and future prospects
Abstract: 
 In recent years, different international institutions have repeatedly called for states to enter into agreements on the transboundary aquifers they share. Nevertheless, very few agreements have been established. This article examines the few ad hoc legal mechanisms that are in existence, and identifies some possible reasons for states’ reluctance. Finally, this article suggests that there is a need for the international community to stimulate a more cooperative approach to the management of this natural resource based on the preventive and precautionary principles.

Title: Scottish Water: a public-sector success story
Abstract: 
 This article explores the governance and regulation of water services in Scotland, including the emergence of a single national provider, Scottish Water; the role of government and its novel Hydro Nation strategy; and the activities of the regulators – for prices, environment, drinking water quality and consumer protection – as Scottish Water moved from amongst the lowest, to amongst the best, of its benchmarked comparators. It examines the recent initiative of a Customer Forum; and draws conclusions on the potential for a public service provider to evidence private-sector efficiency whilst contributing fully to public policy goals.

Title: Adaptation in the Tisza: innovation and tribulation at the sub-basin level
Abstract: 
 This article explores the elements limiting adaptive governance in the Tisza sub-basin, considers policy options available to the sub-basin, and concludes that more attention must be paid to frameworks governing adaptation in transboundary sub-basins where resources are limited.The Tisza is the largest sub-basin in the Danube River basin, and faces increasing water management pressures exacerbated by climate change. The Tisza countries have experienced challenges with managing climate change adaptation in a nested, consistent and effective manner pursuant to the EU Water Framework Directive. This is due to inefficiencies in climate change adaptation, such as weakened vertical coordination.

Title: Adapting water laws to increasing demand and a changing climate
Abstract: 
 Stress on water resources throughout the world is increasing, challenging the institutions and laws that govern water use. Groundwater management efforts in Southern California have had remarkable success despite more than a half-century of strained water resources. This article explores the local, self-governing management tools that have functioned within California’s extremely complex water rights system and are responsible for water management success in Southern California, and suggests that these tools can be employed effectively around the world.

Title: Compulsory licensing under South Africa’s National Water Act
Abstract: 
 This article considers the statutory scheme for compulsory licensing in South Africa and examines its use in three case studies. Their evaluation reveals the complexity and time-consuming nature of the process. This, coupled with other challenges, particularly in relation to the achievement of equity (redress), is likely to result in the slow achievement of the National Water Act’s objectives through compulsory licensing. There are no realistic alternatives to licensing if the constitutionally required goal of equity is to remain critical.

Title: Governing water augmentation under the Watercourse Convention
Abstract: 
 This article evaluates how the UN Convention on the Law of the Non-navigational Uses of International Watercourses can be interpreted and implemented to facilitate responsible and equitable implementation of water augmentation technology. Innovation in technology that has the potential to augment water supplies, like desalination or cloud seeding, may aggravate or mitigate conflict over shared international rivers or lakes. On the one hand, international water disputes may arise due to water scarcity, and augmentation mitigates scarcity. On the other hand, wealthy nations may secure increased water supplies through technological innovations while externalizing the costs of those innovations to poorer nations.

Title: Joint infrastructure and the sharing of benefits in the Senegal and Niger watersheds
Abstract: 
 Riparian states of the Senegal and Niger watersheds have developed specific techniques for the management of water infrastructure. A common feature in both watersheds is the sharing of benefits from water facilities. Niger River basin states are still at the beginning of a shared vision process for jointly managed infrastructure and equitable benefit sharing, while Senegal River basin states have led the way in innovative forms of shared ownership and governance. Environmental protection and public participation are increasingly included in the development of joint infrastructure, but more could be done to strengthen these aspects of river governance.

Title: Water governance reform in the context of inequality: securing rights or legitimizing dispossession?
Abstract: 
 Secure and legally sanctioned access to water is gaining significance to farmers to cushion themselves against climate change and to participate in markets that are increasingly concerned with social and environmental responsibility. Nicaragua is among the countries which recently has introduced a new water rights regime as part of its water governance reform. The article analyzes the extent to which the reform has succeeded in providing water security for all. The article argues that due to selective and partial implementation, the water governance reform could lead to the concentration of enforceable water rights in the hands of the few.

Title: Flood hazard maps in the European context
Abstract: 
 The implementation of the EU Floods Directive by water authorities across Europe has generated a lack of consistency in the present situation, especially regarding the scales adopted, the hydrological scenarios and the elements represented on flood hazard and risk maps. From the EU-funded project HYTECH, this article presents a general overview of Floods Directive implementation in eight European countries, highlighting the differences between them, with particular attention to flood hazard maps. For the implementation cycle that started at the beginning of 2016, a minimization of such differences is necessary in order to manage flood risk in a better and more integrated way.

Title: Urban water pricing in Yemen: a comparison of increasing block tariffs to other pricing schemes
Abstract: 
 This study examines the viability of increasing block tariffs (IBTs) to achieve the right balance between efficiency, financial requirements and equity, and compares them to alternative pricing schemes. Using numerical examples, it analyzes the IBT structure of two water utilities in Yemen. The main conclusion is that IBTs exhibit remnants of old thinking among policy makers to promote cheap water for people. In view of similar results from other regions, the current practice of IBTs in developing countries has significant deficiencies and could be replaced by simpler pricing schemes such as a uniform price with a rebate or a discount.

Title: Managing resources through stakeholder networks: collaborative water governance for Lake Naivasha basin, Kenya
Abstract: 
 Stakeholder analysis and social network analysis were used to analyze stakeholders’ social and structural characteristics based on their interests, influence and interactions in Lake Naivasha basin, Kenya. Even though the Kenyan government and its agencies seem to command higher influence and interest in water resource management, the presence of influential and central stakeholders from non-government sectors plays a key role in strengthening partnership in a governance environment with multiple sectors, complex issues and competing interests. Interactions in the basin are guided by stakeholders’ interest and sphere of influence, which have both promoted participation in implementing a collaborative water governance framework.

Title: The political ontology of collaborative water governance
Abstract: 
 This article examines the various definitions of, and analytical approaches to, collaborative water governance (CWG). While the concept’s usage has increased over the past decade, there lacks any deep engagement with the concept of the political at the heart of CWG. This article argues that contemporary approaches to CWG risk emptying the concept of its utility and coherence. Correcting this deficiency requires a focus on the social and ideational constructions of water. This will strengthen future collaborative water arrangements and enable deeper appreciation of the ways the political makes and remakes what is possible in water governance.

Title: Engineered rivers in arid lands: searching for sustainability in theory and practice
Abstract: 
 Beginning in the early twentieth century and progressing rapidly since the 1950s, large-scale water works have created engineered rivers. In dry-land basins they control flooding and provide water and energy to farms, cities and industry. Yet, they face numerous challenges. In 2013 we formed an interdisciplinary team to study future conditions of nine river basins worldwide. This paper presents the methodology and interim results for two of our basins, the Rio Grande and the Euphrates-Tigris. We conclude with a new definition of the sustainability of engineered rivers in arid lands, using dependable reservoir yield under drought conditions as the central indicator.

Title: Harnessing the sun for an evergreen revolution: a study of solar-powered irrigation in Bihar, India
Abstract: 
 In 2012, the government of Bihar revived 34 non-functioning public tubewells using solar panels. The performance of 16 of these wells over 12 months was tracked and analyzed using data from tubewell operators and 240 farmers. Access to affordable irrigation from solar pumps led to a 9–10% increase in productivity of rice and wheat. Furthermore, in a severe drought, farmers could grow paddy in the entire area irrigated by solar pumps, when nearly 40% of other land was left fallow. Solar pumps can help increase crop productivity, reduce the cost of irrigation, and make agriculture more resilient to climate change.

Title: Towards best water management policies: how current irrigation reservoir operation practices compare with theory in Alberta
Abstract: 
 Improved reservoir operation policies based on river basin management simulations have typically not been implemented in the field. This article investigates this disconnect between reservoir operations theory and practice. Interviews with water managers in southern Alberta (Canada) reveal that reservoir operations are based on basin-wide cooperation, a focus on the current state of the system without hedging rules, and early-season announcements of water rationing. Model development should focus on multiple time-step optimization approaches that can produce optimal release decisions for various levels of risk, provide better insight into effects of alternative releases and potentially reduce supply shortfalls.

Title: A typology of water market intermediaries
Abstract: 
 Despite rising global interest in introducing water markets, only a small number of implemented markets function efficiently. Market intermediaries, by improving information flows and introducing market participants to trade, play a crucial role in initiating water markets. This article inductively generates profiles for different types of market intermediaries, which then can be applied to prevailing country contexts. The results demonstrate that generic criteria influencing the emergence or creation and success of market intermediaries can be inductively generated from existing water markets.

Title: A framework for strategic river restoration in China
Abstract: 
 In response to major water-related challenges, the Chinese government is preparing to significantly expand river restoration efforts. The high level of development in many Chinese river basins requires that this work be undertaken strategically. This article identifies current global challenges to river restoration and presents a framework for strategic river restoration, together with a set of eight ‘golden rules’. The framework and rules were developed specifically to address the Chinese situation, but are relevant elsewhere, particularly for heavily developed and highly contested river basins.

Title: Can water users’ associations improve water governance in China? A tale of two villages in the Shiyang River basin
Abstract: 
 A comparative study of two water users’ associations in the Shiyang River basin, north-west China, shows significantly different understanding and experiences among water stakeholders. Factors other than formal organization appear to be more important in participatory irrigation management. For water users’ associations to play a more significant role in water governance, they have to be context-specific, with better understanding of local perspectives, make strategic use of social capital, and cope with shared and/or conflicting interests among stakeholders.

Title: The cultural dimensions of household water security: the case of Kathmandu’s stone spout systems
Abstract: 
 This article contributes knowledge to the under-studied cultural aspects of household water security through the case of Kathmandu’s ancient stone waterspouts. It asks why and how ‘traditional’ water supply systems persist as a form of water provision, and examines governance arrangements that pose challenges to these systems. It demonstrates that spout systems are critical sources of secure water supply, particularly for underserved populations. Also, the religious, cultural and social significance of spouts enables community autonomy and facilitates their persistence. However, conflicts between cultural heritage and drinking water law and policy undermine spout revitalization efforts and the entire system’s integrity.

Title: OECD Principles on Water Governance in practice: an assessment of existing frameworks in Europe, Asia-Pacific, Africa and South America
Abstract: 
 Through the lens of the 12 OECD Principles on Water Governance, this article examines six water resources and water services frameworks in Europe, Asia-Pacific, Africa and South America to understand enhancing and constraining contextual factors. Qualitative and quantitative methods are used to analyze each framework against four criteria: alignment; implementation; on-ground results; and policy impact. Four main target areas are identified for improving water governance: policy coherence; financing; managing trade-offs; and ensuring integrity and transparency by all decision makers and stakeholders. Suggestions are presented to support practical implementation of the principles through better government action and stakeholder involvement.

Title: The evolution of water governance in France from the 1960s: disputes as major drivers for radical changes within a consensual framework
Abstract: 
 This paper provides a synthetic presentation of French water governance and its evolution since the 1960s. Through this French experience, it discusses the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) water governance cycle showing disputes as the main drivers of change. France has been a pioneer in introducing water river basin management some 50 years ago. It is also noted for its water services management by local authorities, leaving a significant role to private and public companies. But French water governance has not been frozen since the 1960s and continues to change radically within a framework based upon its unique history.

Title: Stakeholder engagement in water governance as social learning: lessons from practice
Abstract: 
 The OECD Principles on Water Governance set out various requirements for stakeholder engagement. Coupled with conceptualizations of social learning, this article asks how we define and enact stakeholder engagement and explores the actual practice of engagement of stakeholders in three fields of water governance. The results suggest that a key consideration is the purpose of the stakeholder engagement, requiring consideration of its ethics, process, roles and expected outcomes. While facilitators cannot be held accountable if stakeholder engagement ‘fails’ in terms of social learning, they are responsible for ensuring that the enabling conditions for social learning are met.

Title: Addressing the policy-implementation gaps in water services: the key role of meso-institutions
Abstract: 
 This paper reviews sources of misalignment between the institutional arrangements, incentives and resources mobilized in water policies. It is argued that the resulting policy gaps develop mainly at the implementation phase and are deeply connected to flaws in the ‘meso-institutions’ linking both the macro-level, at which general rules are established through laws and customs, and the micro-level, at which actors operate within the domain thus delineated. It is suggested that the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) Principles on Water Governance (2015) are primarily and rightly targeting these flaws. The discussion is substantiated with numerous examples, mainly from developing countries.

Title: Policy factors explaining the failure of delegated management in water supply: evidence from Ghana
Abstract: 
 In the 1990s, delegated management emerged as a promising public policy approach for improving the performance of the water supply sector in many developing countries. In many cases, however, the obligations of delegated management contracts reportedly have not been met, often leading to early termination or non-renewal. Drawing on theories in policy analysis and knowledge management, this article analyzes the management contract signed between Ghana Water Company and Aqua Vitens Rand to identify the policy-related factors underlying the failure of delegated management in water supply. Practical implications are discussed for more successful implementation of delegated management.

Title: The limits to participation: branch-canal water user associations in the Egyptian Delta
Abstract: 
 Egypt has valuable experience with water user associations in irrigated agriculture. Internationally funded irrigation improvement projects aiming to increase irrigation efficiency have introduced water user associations at the branch-canal level alongside improvements to the infrastructure in the Central Delta of Egypt. In this article we review those water management practices in which these associations are expected to participate. Our main finding is that their role in these areas is minimal and that they are generally weak organizations. Either such organizations should be genuinely strengthened legally and politically, and given real responsibilities and resources, or the entire idea of participation should be abandoned.

Title: An analysis of the framings of water scarcity in the Jordanian national water strategy
Abstract: 
 This viewpoint analyzes the Jordanian water strategy to investigate how water scarcity is framed, and what solutions are suggested. It also analyzes how the framings and discourses have changed in the two versions of the strategy, why, and their implications. The Jordanian national water strategy has been overlooked by the literature of hydropolitics.  The analysis here also contributes by showing the interplay between discourses of scarcity and policy solutions.

Title: Impact of agricultural development on evapotranspiration trends in the irrigated districts of Pakistan: evidence from 1981 to 2012
Abstract: 
 Understanding time-series evapotranspiration trends is critical for water-balance assessments and sustainable water management in arid regions. In this paper, an approach is presented to understand time-series evapotranspiration trends by combining remote sensing-based evapotranspiration and agricultural statistics data and applying them to understand district-level water-use trends in the Indus basin irrigation system of Pakistan. The evapotranspiration of most districts in the Punjab increased over the period, whereas in Sindh it generally remained about the same or decreased. The trends in Punjab suggests that the already unsustainable groundwater use in some areas may become more unsustainable.

Title: China’s transboundary river policies towards Kazakhstan: issue-linkages and incentives for cooperation
Abstract: 
 A significant aspect of China’s power is its position as upstream riparian on many of Asia’s international rivers. China participates in creating and building institutions with riparians of some of these rivers more than others. This article argues that China’s relatively higher level of institutionalized cooperation with Kazakhstan on transboundary water issues is due to the interdependence between the two countries, which facilitates linkages between water issues and a cluster of political, economic, security and strategic issues. China is incentivized to cooperate and accommodates Kazakhstan’s concerns over their shared waters because a reciprocal relationship exists between them.

Title: The dilemma of autonomy: decentralization and water politics at the subnational level
Abstract: 
 This article develops a framework for understanding the role of subnational states in water politics in decentralized federal systems. First, that role has increased worldwide as a result of decentralization. Second, the quest for autonomy sometimes leads subnational officials to prefer weak forms of cooperation. Third, the interaction of subnational states, central governments and non-governmental actors largely explains interjurisdictional conflict and cooperation in shared river basins. This framework is applied to the case of the Colorado River basin to help explain a long-term shift towards more cooperative relationships between the riparian states.

Title: Dam diplomacy? China’s new neighbourhood policy and Chinese dam-building companies
Abstract: 
 This analysis examines whether the Chinese state has transformed state dam-construction firms engaged abroad into agents of ‘hydro-diplomacy’ to reflect larger diplomatic initiatives to improve relations with neighbouring countries. It concludes that there is little evidence of strengthened direct oversight over Chinese dam-building companies in the region, which remain principally profit-seeking actors. In implementing projects, they prioritize the standards of host countries over the strategic concerns of the Chinese state. This suggests that either the ‘agency costs’ of hydropower firms’ behaviour remain acceptable to Beijing or there are other impediments to policy change.

Title: International water conflict and cooperation: challenges and opportunities
Abstract: 
 Though awareness of the nature of water conflict and cooperation has improved over time, the likelihood of water conflicts could increase as populations continue to grow and climate change continues to manifest. This article details the nature of water conflict and water cooperation. We discuss how water conflicts can be resolved, how water can be seen as a vehicle for change between states, and future directions that can be taken in transboundary water conflict research.

Title: The remarkable restoration of the Rhine: plural rationalities in regional water politics
Abstract: 
 The restoration of the Rhine basin is widely viewed as an exemplary case of international water protection. The river’s clean-up has been characterized by a number of puzzling developments. These include chemical companies reducing their toxic effluents by more than legally required, and riparian governments quarrelling internationally over environmental measures that each of them were undertaking domestically. It is argued that the plural rationality (or cultural) theory pioneered by Dame Mary Douglas offers an empirically valid explanation of these remarkable processes.

Title: Infrastructure development and the economics of cooperation in the Eastern Nile
Abstract: 
 This article employs a hydro-economic optimization model to analyze the effects of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on the distribution and magnitude of benefits in the Eastern Nile. Scenarios are considered based on plausible institutional arrangements that span varying levels of cooperation, as well as changes in hydrological conditions (water availability). The results show that the dam can increase Ethiopia’s economic benefits by a factor of 5–6, without significantly affecting or compromising irrigation and hydropower production downstream. However, increasing GERD water storage during a drought could lead to high costs not only for Egypt and Sudan, but also for Ethiopia.

Title: River activism, policy entrepreneurship and transboundary water disputes in Asia
Abstract: 
 This article examines the role of non-state actors – namely, ‘river activists’ – in the management of major transboundary rivers in Asia. Focusing on unresolved disputes over the utilization of the water resources of the Mekong, Nu-Salween and Brahmaputra Rivers, it argues that aside from riparian governments, these activists have contributed considerably to shaping the nature of socio-political contestation in these cases. Drawing upon a ‘policy entrepreneurship’ framework for analysis, civil society actors are revealed to play an important, if not leading, role in catalyzing and framing water disputes at the national and transnational levels, with cascading consequences for regional water governance.

Title: The exposure of a fresh fruit and vegetable supply chain to global water-related risks
Abstract: 
 We have combined estimates of the UK&#x2019;s supply of fresh fruit and vegetables (1996 &#x2013; 2015) with estimates of water requirements and water scarcity in producing countries, to identify where the supply is exposed to physical, regulatory and reputational water risks and how this has changed over time. Some 76% of the freshwater consumed in the supply of fresh fruit and vegetables to the UK is withdrawn overseas. The supply chain is particularly exposed to water risks in Spain, Egypt, South Africa, Chile, Morocco, Israel and Peru. Exposure has increased over time.

Title: Advising Morocco: adopting recommendations of a water footprint assessment would increase risk and impair food security for the country and its farmers
Abstract: 
 A water footprint assessment is not an appropriate guide for allocating water efficiently in water-scarce regions such as Morocco. Water footprints contain too little information to identify policies or investments that will achieve public goals regarding agriculture, natural resources and livelihoods. In fact, they would impair efforts to enhance food security and sustain economic growth. The better way forward for Morocco and other countries is to analyze the full range of economic, social and environmental issues pertaining to water use in agriculture and other sectors.

Title: Future crop yields and water productivity changes for Nebraska rainfed and irrigated crops
Abstract: 
 We assessed future rainfed and irrigated crop yield and water productivity changes in Nebraska across multiple climate and emission scenarios using an empirical modeling approach. We found rainfed crops showed slightly increased crop water productivity while irrigated crops showed no change or decreased water productivity. Contrary to U.S.-wide studies reporting declines in crop yields, we projected Nebraska crop yields to increase overall with greatest increases in current rainfed fields due to combined effects from maximum and minimum temperatures. However, the increased rainfed yields are not sufficient to fully close the gap between rainfed and irrigated yields.Abbreviations: USDA: U.S. Department of Agriculture; RegCM4.3: ICTP Regional Climate Model version 4.3; NCEP: National Centers for Environmental prediction; DOE: U.S. Department of Energy; CGCM: Canadian Climate Centre general circulation model; GFDL: Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory general circulation model; CRCM: Canadian Climate Centre regional climate model; CCSM: National Center for Atmospheric Research general circulation model; HRM3: Hadley Centre&#x2019;s Regional Model 3; HADCM3: Hadley Centre&#x2019;s general circulation model; WRFG: the NCAR Weather Research and Forecasting model; CCCma: Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis; CanESM2: Canadian Centre Earth System Model 2; ICHEC-EC: A European community Earth-System Model; IPCC: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change; RMSE: Root Mean Square Error

Title: Can Sub-Saharan Africa feed itself? The role of irrigation development in the region&#x2019;s drylands for food security
Abstract: 
 This paper assesses the potential role of investments in irrigation in Sub-Saharan Africa in improving food security and self-sufficiency in the region. Focusing on the region&#x2019;s drylands, the study identifies a potential for expanded irrigated area of 6&#x2013;14 million hectares (ha), depending on technology costs and other factors. Linkage of these results with a global agricultural trade model shows that accelerated irrigation investment can effectively reduce growing food import dependency from 54% under a business-as-usual scenario to a much smaller 17&#x2013;40%; and can also reduce the population at risk of hunger and child under-nutrition.

Title: Sustainability of aquifers supporting irrigated agriculture: a case study of the High Plains aquifer in Kansas
Abstract: 
 The only means of moderating alarming depletion rates in many of the world&#x2019;s major aquifers is to reduce pumping. We apply a new water-balance approach to assess the impact of pumping reductions in a portion of the High Plains aquifer in the United States. Although projected aquifer responses to pumping reductions vary, practically achievable reductions would have a large impact throughout the area. These findings demonstrate that modest pumping reductions could greatly enhance prospects for groundwater-supported irrigation in the High Plains aquifer and similar aquifers elsewhere.

Title: Irrigation variability and climate change affect derived distributions of simulated water recharge and nitrate leaching
Abstract: 
 Irrigation (&#x2018;blue&#x2019;) water has high value as municipalities seek water security under growing populations and projected climates, but spatial variability makes estimating return flows to groundwater challenging. We demonstrate a framework for simulating spatially variable infiltration and derived distributions of return flows using an agricultural and vadose zone model to simulate recharge and nitrate leaching under irrigated corn in semi-arid northeastern Colorado, USA. Derived distributions indicated increased historical recharge (2&#x2013;42%) as the spatial variability of applied irrigation increased. Projected climate in 2050 increased recharge above historical rates by up to 58%, but climatic effects decreased with increasing irrigation variability.

Title: The water footprint challenge for water resources management in Chilean arid zones
Abstract: 
 The water footprint concept is difficult to apply to water-shortage conditions because of private management and variability in the water balance. Chilean water law stipulates that water allocation depends on water rights and private organization criteria, according to the basin water supply and not necessarily crop irrigation demand, crop yield or irrigation technology. This paper explores the resultant complications.

Title: The effect of diet changes and food loss reduction in reducing the water footprint of an average American
Abstract: 
 We analyzed the consumptive water reduction of diet shifting along with food waste reductions in the case of the United States. We find that a dietary shift to healthy diet will not always lead to reduced water footprint. Dietary shifts to vegan and vegetarian diets provide larger reduction in the consumptive water footprint. Reducing food loss and waste produced the largest potential water footprint reduction in our analysis of the US food system. Our findings suggest that a combination of measures that include dietary shift, reducing caloric intake, and reducing food waste result in a significant decline in water footprint.

Title: Water footprint for Korean rice products and virtual water trade in a water-energy-food nexus
Abstract: 
 One possible approach for addressing water and food insecurity involves food production, trade, and water used elsewhere. In this study, we introduce a water footprint for Korean rice products and focus on the impacts of localized cultivation and water supply systems on the water footprint. In addition, we discuss several studies on the application of water footprint and virtual water trade in water and food management in Korea. Finally, we suggest the role of water footprint and virtual water trade in sustainable resource management through a water-energy-food nexus approach.

Title: Water footprint of beef production on Texas High Plains pasture
Abstract: 
 Depletion of the Ogallala aquifer in the U.S. Great Plains demands information on water usage in forage-fed beef production. We compared a summer grazing system for beef steers consisting of warm-season grasses vs. grasses growing with lucerne (Medicago sativa L.). The water footprint averaged 39 and 26&#xA0;m3 of water kg&#x2212;1 of beef liveweight gain, respectively, when water included rainfall, irrigation, and livestock drinking. Including lucerne reduced the water footprint of beef weight gain thanks to its ability to alleviate protein deficiency in the associated grasses, thus diminishing an important source of inefficiency in converting feed to meat.

Title: Tradeoffs in the water-energy- food nexus in the urbanizing Asia-Pacific region
Abstract: 
 In order to evaluate the potential benefit and negative impacts of urbanization on the water-energy-food nexus, analyses have been made in Asia-Pacific countries with production-consumption relationships of water-energy-food nexus. Negative correlations have been found between urbanization rates and energy consumption rates for water and food production. This is because of the difference in decision making processes of resource development as urbanization progresses. Some positive relationships have been found between water consumption for energy production and Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and between water consumption for food production and hydro-meteorological conditions such as dry or wet countries.

Title: A review of the current status of small-scale seawater reverse osmosis desalination
Abstract: 
 The current status of small-scale desalination (produced water capacity 100 m3/day or less) is reviewed to provide an overview of the market segment. The use of energy-recovery devices in this market segment is also reviewed. We find that the Middle East accounts for the largest market share worldwide at present, and reverse osmosis is overwhelmingly dominant among the desalination technologies adopted. Implementation of energy-recovery devices at small scale is rare, which leads to relatively high energy consumption for small-scale seawater reverse osmosis desalination systems.

Title: Assessing the environmental context of hand washing among school children in Limpopo, South Africa
Abstract: 
 Despite its simplicity and efficacy, the promotion of hand washing for disease prevention remains a challenge, particularly in resource-limited settings. This article reports on a quasi-experimental school-based study that aimed to improve habitual hand washing. Significant increases in hand washing occurred following improvements in hygiene and sanitation facilities (School A: t = 13.86, p = 0.0052). Smaller increases in hand washing occurred following education (School A: t = 2.63; p = 0.012; School B, no infrastructure improvements: t = 1.66, p = 0.239). Health policy and programming need to pay greater attention to the interplay of the structural, social and individual dimensions of unique contextual environments that influence habitual behaviours.

Title: Use of coal seam water for agriculture in Queensland, Australia
Abstract: 
 The development of the coal seam gas industry in Australia has led to the extraction of large volumes of relatively salty groundwater. Once treated, this coal seam water (CSW) is being made available for irrigation and it is an opportunity for landholders to increase the level and reliability of their agricultural production. This paper reviews the use of CSW and approaches to sustainable agriculture. The review suggests that, barring technical and economic constraints, re-injection of treated CSW into stressed agricultural aquifers may provide more equitable access to water and broader economic benefits than current location-specific irrigation schemes.

Title: Specification of a human right to water: a sustainability assessment of access hurdles
Abstract: 
 Any implementation of the right to water requires a sound specification. For that purpose, this article offers an innovative analytical framework. First, the object of the analysis should be the hurdles to access (pecuniary, spatial, temporal, qualitative), not least because they partly fulfil sustainability functions. Second, these hurdles need to be assessed on the basis of three criteria: functionality, reasonableness and non-discrimination. This framework allows the identification of supply situations that infringe upon the right to water, provides starting points for improving access, and honours the commitment of the Sustainable Development Goals to take equal account of social and sustainability concerns.

Title: Urban water demand, climatic variation, and irrigation-water insecurity: interactive stressors and lessons for water governance from the Angat River basin (Philippines)
Abstract: 
 Climatic variation and intersectoral water competition increasingly challenge the effective provision of irrigation services. This article explores their combined effects on irrigation allocation from the Angat Reservoir (Philippines), where domestic water use in Metro Manila has overtaken regional irrigation as the dominant right-holder. Rules protecting Metro Manila’s large right to water ‘interact’ with dry spells to affect irrigation security in wet and dry seasons. Historically, irrigators were uncompensated because re-allocation’s cause was contested as (1) an unforeseeable climatic event (releasing domestic utilities of liability), or (2) produced by urban demand (requiring compensation). Trade-off rules must be prepared to navigate combinatory effects.

Title: Quality matters: incorporating water quality into water access monitoring in rural Malawi
Abstract: 
 The Sustainable Development Goals offer an ambitious plan to achieve universal access to water that is safe and affordable. This article uses data from 139 household surveys from 13 villages in rural Malawi and Petrifilm quality testing of 27 drinking water sources to highlight areas where the goals’ proposed monitoring framework might not fully capture water quality. Households make complex water decisions and sometimes choose to use unsafe sources. Households generally do not use water treatment but universally practise water storage. This article argues for improved monitoring to more effectively and accurately measure sustainable water access.

Abstract: 
 A function model was used to quantify the vulnerability of the Haihe River basin on the basis of sensitivity, adaptability of the water resources system, exposure and drought disaster risk. Surface water resources vulnerability was assessed for a benchmark year (2000) using the function and indicator models and for modelled future climate scenarios using only the function assessment model. In the results, surface water resources vulnerability was greater when exposure, disaster risk and water quality factors were considered. Both models gave the result that vulnerability of water resources in study area was high; all the regions were rated ‘highly’, ‘strongly’, or ‘extremely’ fragile.

Title: Fighting over water values: diverse framings of flower and food production with communal irrigation in the Ecuadorian Andes
Abstract: 
 Water management studies often overlook community diversity, different stakeholders’ values, and frames to claim water rights. Using a political-ecology approach, this article examines an irrigation system in Ecuador’s highlands via Fraser’s principles of justice (recognition, representation, redistribution). Large flower companies and indigenous smallholders frame their arguments differently to legitimize water allocation claims. Framing is effective when it resonates with other stakeholders’ values. Some unexpected findings are explained: most of the water is still used by large companies since communities took control; rules regarding water use differ greatly among sectors in the system; and small flower producers have been appearing recently.

Title: The 1997 United Nations Convention on the Law of Non-navigational Uses of International Watercourses: what contribution to the development of the Water Charter for the Volta Basin?
Abstract: 
 In 2007, the six riparian countries of the Volta Basin adopted the Convention on the Status of the Volta River and the Establishment of Volta Basin Authority (Volta Basin Convention). This legal framework is strongly inspired by the United Nations Convention on the Law of Non-navigational Uses of International Watercourses (UNWC). However, the Volta Basin Convention merely states the major international river management principles without specifying either the terms or the procedures for their implementation. This article examines the potential contribution of the UNWC provisions to the development of a water charter.

Title: Evaluating knowledge and capacity development in the water sector: challenges and progress
Abstract: 
 As knowledge and capacity development (KCD) is increasingly acknowledged as crucial for development, the need to evaluate its impact increases, too. However, evaluating KCD in practice remains a challenge. This article aims to synthesize the current wisdom on the topic of KCD evaluation in the water sector. We discuss two leading approaches to KCD (positivist and complex adaptive systems) and their associated evaluation paradigms, the major methodological challenges facing KCD evaluation, and progress made in that respect. The article provides insights for KCD practitioners and policy makers in the water sector that can help them improve their KCD evaluation practice.

Title: Promoting and assessing water governance at subnational level: the experience of Brazil’s National Water Management Pact
Abstract: 
 Relying on previous experiences of goal-oriented initiatives, an inclusive method for classifying and evaluating subnational water management systems has been implemented nationwide to promote the effective participation of social actors in the establishment of water governance goals. Nowadays, the methodology has been fully adopted by all Brazilian subnational federative entities – 26 states and the Federal District – and, in most cases, it has been used as an instrument for orienting state action. This article describes this methodological approach in the light of Brazil’s legal and institutional framework for water resources management.

Title: The EU Water Initiative at 15: origins, processes and assessment
Abstract: 
 This article examines the activities and achievements of the European Union Water Initiative, a transnational, multi-actor partnership established in 2002 by the European Commission to support water governance reforms around the world. Two regional components of the initiative – (a) Africa and (b) Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia – are studied with a focus on their organizational structures, activities, policies and achievements. The analysis provides evidence for improved regional dialogue and cooperation in the water sector, but also points to persistent weaknesses, in particular a lack of resources, ownership and mutual understanding as to the overall aims of the Initiative.

Title: Issues and challenges of reclaimed water usage: a case study of the dragon-shaped river in the Beijing Olympic Park
Abstract: 
 Increased use of reclaimed water could be one of the solutions to Beijing’s growing water shortage, particularly for non-potable (e.g. landscaping) purposes. The dragon-shaped river, a large artificial waterscape built on the site of the 2008 Beijing Olympic games, offers a useful case study of the issues and challenges attendant on wastewater reclamation and reuse. Of particular interest is the use of phytoremediation techniques for bioremediation of nutrient loads. This article presents the results of ongoing monitoring which indicate that phytoremediation is succeeding in preventing eutrophication, though some challenges, notably management of aquatic biomass, remain.

Title: Future bottlenecks in international river basins: where transboundary institutions, population growth and hydrological variability intersect
Abstract: 
 Using global data, this article examines the nexus of transboundary flood events and future social vulnerability. Which international river basins are forecast to experience an increase in both hydrological variability and population in the future, but currently lack institutional provisions to deal with these shared events? Concentrations of elevated risk are found in several basins in Central Asia, Central America and Central Africa. The article ends by highlighting transboundary basins that merit further investigation and possibly additional institution building to reduce urban flood risk.

Title: Assessment of fog-water collection on the eastern escarpment of Eritrea
Abstract: 
 Fog can be considered a potential water resource for certain semi-arid and arid countries. In Eritrea, a fog-water collection project was implemented in 2007 in the villages of Arborobue and Nefasit. This study presents an assessment of the project after five years of implementation and identifies the main strengths to be technical viability, since it is simple and manageable by communities, and reasonable in areas where conventional water delivery systems are not feasible. The main limitations are that it is not economically viable unless its initial cost is subsidized; moreover, fog capture is seasonal, and net damage occurs during strong winds.

Title: Assessing the legitimacy of flood risk governance arrangements in Europe: insights from intra-country evaluations
Abstract: 
 Legitimacy has received comparatively less attention than societal resilience in the context of flooding, thus methods for assessing and monitoring the legitimacy of flood risk governance arrangements are noticeably lacking. This study attempts to address this gap by assessing the legitimacy of flood risk governance arrangements in six European countries through cross-disciplinary and comparative research methods. On the basis of this assessment, recommendations to enhance the legitimacy of flood risk governance in Europe are presented.

Title: A cooperative framework for optimizing transboundary hydropower development
Abstract: 
 Hydropower development may result in water conflicts among the riparian nations, which, however, can be resolved by benefit sharing. An optimization framework is proposed for a transboundary sub-basin following a cooperative game theoretical approach. A broad range of factors at different levels of cooperation between the riparian countries has been used in the optimization model. As an illustration, the framework is implemented in the Sesan and Sre Pok sub-basins of the Lower Mekong Basin. Higher levels of cooperation lead to greater total net benefits as well as greater benefits to individual countries.

Title: Trend and variability of rainfall in two river basins in Sri Lanka: an analysis of meteorological data and farmers’ perceptions
Abstract: 
 Selected rainfall characteristics derived by analyzing observed rainfall data in two Sri Lankan river basins (Malwathu Oya and Kalu Ganga) were compared with the perceptions of farmers. The rainfall characteristics used for this analysis are trends, onset and cessation dates, length of the growing period, number of rainy days, and length of the dry spell. Farmers’ perceptions of changes in those characteristics were collected through household surveys. The majority of farmers in both river basins failed to recognize the long-term upward trend in annual rainfall. They also failed to describe the adaptation measures they were currently practising.

Title: The politics of water reform and environmental sustainability in the Murray–Darling Basin
Abstract: 
 This paper examines three actions by national and state governments – the role of the Cap, the Living Murray (TLM) and the National Action Plan for Water Security/Water for the Future, embodying the Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) Plan – in the Murray–Darling Basin over a 20-year period. The three actions sought to address declining environmental conditions through water policy reform. All were significant in their own way, but only the third offers the prospect of improving environmental outcomes. Taken together, the case studies illustrate that in real life and in complex, multilevelled policy-making, politics is central to water policy decision-making.

Title: India’s water policy response to climate change
Abstract: 
 This article examines the formation process and strategic direction of the National Water Mission, the government of India’s water policy response to climate change launched in 2008. The policy development process is found to be largely an internal government affair. Numerous water supply and demand management strategies as well as institutional reform measures are advocated, constituting key elements of adaptive water management. However, it reconfirms the government’s commitment to a primary focus on large-scale supply-side infrastructure approaches, with the plasticity of climate change being mobilized as additional justification. Non-government actors instead advocate decentralized, smaller-scale supply and demand management strategies.

Title: Two decades of Brazil’s participatory model for water resources management: from enthusiasm to frustration
Abstract: 
 In January 2017, the water community in Brazil celebrated the 20th anniversary of the promulgation of Brazil’s National Water Resources Policy (Federal Law 9.433). However, Brazil’s participatory model has not delivered the expected policy outcomes yet. Inclusiveness in decision making has become pointless since mechanisms of social control and accountability are almost nonexistent. Despite the widely celebrated opportunities for stakeholder engagement and decentralized water management, implementation of water policies remains largely dependent on state actors. These findings indicate the need for carefully planned and evidence-based water reforms in Brazil.

Title: Service levels for the four billion people with piped water on premises
Abstract: 
 While more than half of the people in the world have access to piped water on premises, no global assessment has been made of the availability, safety, reliability and affordability of service levels. The range of situations is challenging, but assessments based on performance can raise awareness and equip officials to promote higher and safer piped water service levels. The article explores explanatory variables for service levels and uses descriptive information and expert opinion to triangulate towards conclusions about how service levels vary. Research needs are identified for development of protocols and data classes for a piped water services rating system.

Title: Water governance research in Africa: progress, challenges and an agenda for research and action
Abstract: 
 Africa has not received adequate attention in the growing number of studies on water governance. Using the Scopus database, 492 peer-reviewed articles published since 2000 on water governance across the continent were reviewed and informed the perspectives presented in this study. In addition to characterizing temporal and topical trends, our analysis highlights three dominant conceptual themes in existing studies – institutional, discursive and technical – and three crosscutting challenges of systemic, socio-environmental and research–policy divides. The study provides baseline information that can stimulate the development of scale-appropriate and policy-relevant research in the context of Africa’s unique water challenges.

Title: Understanding the non-institutionalization of a socio-technical innovation: the case of multiple-use water services (MUS) in Nepal
Abstract: 
 Multiple-use water services (MUS) have been promoted and piloted globally for two decades as a socio-technical innovation. Yet the MUS approach has hardly extended beyond donor-funded projects to public policies. We use a collective action framework to analyze the non-institutionalization of MUS in Nepal. We find that MUS has much cognitive legitimacy, but discourse fragmentation has reduced its socio-political legitimacy. Yet the latter is essential to overcome the institutional challenges of a fragmented public water sector and to mainstream MUS into policy debate.

Title: Federal reserved rights and California's Groundwater Management Act: resolving groundwater rights tensions in California and the western United States
Abstract: 
 California introduced its first comprehensive groundwater legislation (the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act) in 2014 to address the overuse of the state’s groundwater resources and to establish a pathway for sustainable groundwater use. However, a recent decision by the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit declaring the existence of federal reserved rights to groundwater could complicate the future implementation of California’s new groundwater legislation. This article explores the impact of the case and offers recommendations on how the tensions between the court’s decision and the existing legal framework for groundwater management in California could be reduced.

Title: ‘Hotel Middle East’: social shocks and adaptation in Jordan’s domestic water sector
Abstract: 
 While socio-ecological systems are susceptible to social shocks, a theoretical and empirical understanding of social-shock adaptation remains absent from the literature. This article investigates the Syrian refugee crisis in water-scarce Jordan, where historical waves of migration have shaped water governance. Findings suggest that water sector adaptation to social shocks fits within broader adaptation theory, and that frequent refugee crises in Jordan have perpetuated reactive water governance, shaping the sector’s resiliencies, vulnerabilities, and adaptation processes. Through examining adaptation processes in the acute water and refugee contexts of Jordan, we suggest that through planning and preparedness, socio-ecological systems could build resilience to social shocks.

Title: Why are there so few basin-wide treaties? Economics and politics of coalition formation in multilateral international river basins
Abstract: 
 Examinations of international water treaties suggest that riparian states are not heeding the advice to adopt IWRM. Theories suggest that the larger the number of negotiating states, the lower the cost (per state) of the joint operation of treaties, but the higher the transaction costs of negotiating and maintaining them. We model the trade-off between benefits and costs associated with the number of treaty signatories and apply it to a global treaty data-set. Findings confirm that the transaction costs of negotiation and the economies of scale are important in determining the paucity of basin-wide agreements, the treaties’ content and their extent.

Title: Participatory rural appraisal to assess groundwater resources in Al-Mujaylis, Tihama Coastal Plain, Yemen
Abstract: 
 A participatory rural appraisal (PRA) conducted in the Al-Mujaylis area, Tihama Coastal Plain, Yemen provided a contribution, as a bottom-up approach, to the assessment of the needs of communities and their views on how to avoid groundwater degradation.  It was found that PRA tools could be applied usefully in an area with data scarcity and a culturally different context. It is concluded that adopting a research approach between top down and bottom up is most valuable and effective.

Title: A user-centred approach to irrigation performance: drip irrigation in the Khrichfa area, Morocco
Abstract: 
 Conventional irrigation performance assessments narrowly confine the possible effects of using drip irrigation to what it is designed to do, i.e., improve efficiencies. While helpful in the design, such assessments leave little scope for the possibility that irrigators adopt the technology for reasons other than improving efficiencies. Using a case study about how irrigators in the farmer-managed Khrichfa Canal in Morocco engaged with drip irrigation, we propose a user-centred approach to irrigation performance. Use of this approach opens up the possibility that a technology is used and mobilized for other reasons than only those intended in the design process.

Title: Shipping water across the US–Mexico border: international governance dimensions of desalination for export
Abstract: 
 New public–private desalination projects along the Mexico–United States boundary have the potential to strengthen water security in this arid region. International bulk water commerce in this region is unprecedented and constrained by existing international agreements and regulations. This problem is examined from a multilevel governance perspective, focusing on two desalination projects with near-term export potential in Rosarito, Baja California, and Puerto Peñasco, Sonora. These projects add to the array of agencies and procedures in binational water management but will not displace the International Boundary and Water Commission, which is sure to have a role in managing such projects.

Title: Actual and perceived causes of flood risk: climate versus anthropogenic effects in a wet zone catchment in Sri Lanka
Abstract: 
 The Kalu Ganga Basin in Sri Lanka is generally flooded once a year. A network of low-lying lands acts as natural retention and storage that captures floodwater, minimizing damage. An increase in the flood frequency has been observed in recent years. It is commonly perceived that this increase is caused by a rise in the frequency and severity of ‘very wet’ precipitation events. We conclude that land-use changes may have played a larger role in generating floods.

Title: The effect of physical accessibility and service level of water supply on economic accessibility: a case study of Bandung City, Indonesia
Abstract: 
 Achieving equitable access to water, in the sense of both physical and economic accessibility, remains a challenge. The article evaluates these two types of accessibility across households of different income groups in Central Cikapundung Basin, Indonesia. Higher-income households are more likely to use piped water, bottled water, or combinations thereof and have higher water expenditures than their lower-income counterparts. We estimate the hidden mitigation costs of groundwater extraction and water boiling and highlight the importance of incorporating mitigation costs when assessing the impacts of poor service quality of water supply on household water expenditure and affordability.

Title: Effects of hydrological changes on cooperation in transnational catchments: the case of the Syr Darya
Abstract: 
 Water allocation along the Syr Darya River may be affected by climate change. Here we statistically model cooperation strategies, country profits, and sensitivity of cooperation, showing that the hydrological regime affects transboundary cooperation. Climate change in the twenty-first century may reduce glacial cover, and reducing stream flows, decreasing chances of cooperation and potentially raising conflicts. Comparison with other transboundary catchments in Central Asia indicates moderate-to-high risk of conflicts for the Syr Darya. A template is provided for assessment of the stability of cooperation in the Syr Darya basin, and in catchments similarly dependent on water availability.

Title: Is water security just? Concepts, tools and missing links
Abstract: 
 Both social and environmental justice overlap with water (in)security, but neither fully captures the nuances. This review extends a water justice framework by critiquing and further developing an existing environmental justice framework. Testing a reformulated understanding of water security through a case study reveals added insights derived from inclusion of scale and power dynamics.

Title: Contested access: improving water security through benefit sharing
Abstract: 
 This article examines the potential and limits of benefit-sharing regimes in improving water security. It draws on a case study of benefit-sharing regimes focusing on the non-consumptive use of the Zambezi River basin. It demonstrates how these regimes have transformed over time from hierarchical to egalitarian benefit-sharing arrangements through the application of conflict-resolution mechanisms. This case analysis is aimed at informing benefit-sharing policies for African river basins.

Title: Water security and the pursuit of food, energy, and earth systems resilience
Abstract: 
 This article addresses the emergence and interrelation of food, energy, and water security in terms of resource use and the ensuing societal and environmental outcomes. For decades, food security and energy security have been well-accepted, operational concepts. Water security is the latest entrant, yet the implications of water insecurity for food, energy and earth systems resilience have not been adequately considered. This article examines how and why this is so &#x2013; particularly with growing water scarcity and insecurity that may compete with energy and food security &#x2013; and emphasizes the critical need to link water-energy-food nexus approaches to earth systems resilience.

Title: Unraveling transboundary water security in the arid Americas
Abstract: 
 Transboundary waters are characterized by diverse and complex socio-politico-economic obstacles to effective water management. We examine five distinct cases in the arid Americas &#x2013; in locations from the US&#x2013;Mexico border to the Andes mountains &#x2013; employing water security as a conceptual prism to unravel the multiple and varied attributes of transboundary water challenges. We describe how borders complicate water security in arid regions and explore how institutional arrangements and practices &#x2013; within and across jurisdictions &#x2013; respond to these challenges. We find that institutional capacity is needed on multiple levels for effective water management, and institutions must be responsive and flexible to change.

Title: Why doesn&#x2019;t every family practice rainwater harvesting? Factors that affect the decision to adopt rainwater harvesting as a household water security strategy in central Uganda
Abstract: 
 This article investigates the reasons householders do, and don&#x2019;t, adopt domestic rainwater harvesting (DRWH). Using a mixed-methods research approach, we collected data in three districts in central Uganda. Factors that emerged as important with respect to uptake of DWRH to address water shortage, especially at the household scale, include the work of intermediary organizations, finance mechanisms, life course dynamics and land tenure.

Title: Water markets as coupled infrastructure systems: comparing the development of water rights and water markets in Heihe, Shiyang and Yellow Rivers
Abstract: 
 A Coupled Infrastructure Systems perspective is applied to three cases in north-western China to explain how and why water rights systems and water markets have changed since 1949. The evolution of water rights systems has been shaped by periods of water-supply projects and periods that emphasized regulatory and institutional measures to manage water resources. We argue that water supply infrastructure and water markets have been developed not in sequence but in parallel. The development of water diversion projects and nationwide market-oriented water allocation reform programmes will continue to co-evolve in the future as part of complex coupled infrastructure systems.

Title: Challenges in assessing the regional feasibility of local water storage
Abstract: 
 The regional effects of local water storage are largely unknown. This study identifies, categorizes and discusses the challenges in assessing the potential of local water storage. These are illustrated using a structured method applied to a Dutch case. We conclude that the focus must shift from storage ‘potential’ (the quantity of water that can be stored) to storage ‘feasibility’, which depends on exploitability, purpose and interactions between storage alternatives. Spatial and temporal scale also influence feasibility. Finally, farmers’ investment preferences are a factor, though these are shrouded in uncertainty. This overview is a first step towards improving storage assessment tools and processes.

Title: Social impacts of a large-dam construction: the case of Castanhão, Brazil
Abstract: 
 Castanhão Dam, a mega-water-management work in Brazil, was built – according to the official reasoning – to reduce water scarcity and boost the economy. It compulsorily displaced over 10,000 people, whose satisfaction with the new standard of living, a decade after the resettlement, was marginally negative, contrasting with the pre-construction expectations. The government invested almost exclusively in infrastructure, signaling that their focus was the corporations, not the displaced citizens. Despite the improved water availability, the quality of life did not improve for the directly affected societal groups, indicating that water scarcity is not the main development hindrance in the Brazilian semi-arid region.

Title: A comprehensive framework for analyzing co-production of urban water and sanitation services in the Global South
Abstract: 
 Co-production of water and sanitation services has become a widely discussed option for equitable and efficient service delivery, especially for cities of the Global South. Theoretical conceptualizations of service co-production mainly refer to the public management and governance dimension, while the techno-environmental and spatial dimensions are often disregarded in the literature. This article proposes a comprehensive framework for analyzing water and sanitation co-production based on cross-cutting literature, from public service management/governance to urban, socio-ecological and socio-technical fields. The proposed framework highlights the categories and factors to be considered when analyzing the background conditions and outcomes of unorthodox service delivery.

Title: Regulating the interactions between climate change and groundwater: lessons from India
Abstract: 
 Groundwater is often considered a largely local issue that is difficult to regulate. Further, groundwater regulation has often focused on use, rather than protection and conservation. There has thus been little integration of environmental concerns into groundwater regulation. Climate change calls for rethinking the regulatory framework for protecting and regulating groundwater. In India, the climate change regime has not given groundwater adequate prominence. Conversely, groundwater regulation remains largely detached from environmental challenges, including climate change. This needs to be addressed through regulation that links the two fields and is based on legal principles derived from the Constitution of India.

Title: Climate change, groundwater and the law: exploring the connections in South Africa
Abstract: 
 Projected impacts of climate change on water availability in South Africa are likely to result in the increasing use of groundwater, which is relatively underused at present. Several threats to groundwater, including acid mine drainage, pervasive water pollution (particularly from untreated sewage), and planned hydraulic fracturing will have to be addressed to protect the country’s groundwater reserves. This article considers the role that law can play in both managing groundwater and protecting it from these and other threats.

Title: Groundwater use in North Africa as a cautionary tale for climate change adaptation
Abstract: 
 The recent history of groundwater use in North Africa provides a cautionary tale for climate change adaptation. Even though the short-term threats of groundwater overexploitation are clear, and territorially bounded, and involve comparatively few players, in recent decades, agricultural intensification has consistently increased pressure on the available resources. Groundwater has been governed through a dynamic interplay between formal rules and informal practices that focused more on maintaining fragile socio-political compromises than on ensuring environmental sustainability. If it is to be effective, climate change adaptation will need to muster the sort of political legitimacy that sustainable groundwater management is currently lacking.

Title: Groundwater law, abstraction, and responding to climate change: assessing recent law reforms in British Columbia and England
Abstract: 
 In 2014, British Columbia enacted the Water Sustainability Act, a comprehensive overhaul of its groundwater and surface water regimes. Meanwhile, in England more piecemeal changes have been made to groundwater laws and policies. Through developing a framework from groundwater governance and climate change adaptation literature this article analyzes the effectiveness of these reforms, which have been carried out through different methods and from different starting points. The article goes on to consider how new processes and technologies, such as hydraulic fracturing (fracking), bring fresh challenges in aligning progress in groundwater law reforms with the wider policy framework.

Title: EU legal protection for ecologically significant groundwater in the context of climate change vulnerability
Abstract: 
 EU habitats law can provide robust protection for groundwater supporting legally protected habitats, such as wetlands. Court of Justice of the EU jurisprudence requires precautionary assessment of groundwater’s role in maintaining the ‘integrity’ of protected ecosystems. Precaution applies in cases of scientific uncertainty, such as that pertaining to groundwater ecology, exacerbated by the uncertain effects of higher climate variability. While EU habitats law may not address anthropocentric concerns, an expansive approach to the protection of groundwater, guided by precautionary assumptions concerning its ecological role, can safeguard essential water-related ecosystem services and thereby address human needs threatened by climate change.

Title: Assessing India’s drip-irrigation boom: efficiency, climate change and groundwater policy
Abstract: 
 This article draws on a case from the north-western Indian state of Rajasthan to examine whether drip irrigation saves water. Drip irrigation is being promoted to preserve groundwater and enhance resilience to climate change. However, the article finds that in the absence of regulations over groundwater abstraction, farmers acquire drip irrigation to intensify production rather than to conserve water. This occurs in a political and economic context where farmers are incentivized to do so, further exacerbating groundwater overdraft. The article concludes with a discussion of drip irrigation’s impact on farmers’ livelihoods and its implications for groundwater policy.

Title: Climate change considerations under international groundwater law
Abstract: 
 Most of the earth’s groundwater is in transboundary aquifers. This vital water resource will certainly be affected by climate change. This article reviews the global climate change framework to investigate how it considers water, and groundwater in particular. It then considers the international legal regime applicable to groundwater resources to explore how it deals with climate change and to what extent it is compatible with the UNFCCC framework. It concludes with identifying the limits and possibilities of the groundwater regime in addressing climate change.

Title: Global climate change and global groundwater law: their independent and pluralistic evolution and potential challenges
Abstract: 
 Although the climate and groundwater systems have close links, the international climate change regime and global groundwater laws have developed independently, despite being negotiated within a few years of each other. Hence this article addresses the question: Do global legal instruments on climate change and groundwater consider the geophysical links between the two systems, and how can their legal frameworks be improved? It argues that there are six geophysical links between groundwater and climate change which are presently inadequately accounted for in the legal regimes and there are four key contradictions between the two legal systems. It makes four recommendations to enhance the linkages between the systems.

Title: The levee effect along the Jamuna River in Bangladesh
Abstract: 
 The levee effect refers to the paradox that the construction of a levee to protect from flooding might induce property owners to invest more in their property, increasing the potential damages should the levee breach. Thus, paradoxically, the levee might increase flood risk. The levee effect was observed for high-income countries. We analyze whether it can also be observed in a low-income country, Bangladesh. In the Jamuna floodplain different levels of flood protection have existed alongside each other since the 1960s, so their effects can be compared.

Title: Managing flood risk in shrinking cities: dilemmas for urban development from the Central European perspective
Abstract: 
 We explore the mismatches in post-socialist Central Europe between the goals of urban renewal (to address urban shrinkage) and flood risk management (resulting from the EU Floods Directive). Taking as examples three declining urban sites significantly affected by extreme floods since the 1990s, we argue that the failure to adopt a multilevel approach to urban flood risk management arises from the persisting urban ‘development’ paradigm, and is accentuated in practice by weak institutional design and insufficient financial resources to manage urban decline.

Title: The effects of tailor-made flood risk advice for homeowners in Flanders, Belgium
Abstract: 
 Although flood risk management is traditionally regarded as a governmental responsibility, homeowners in Flanders (Belgium) have a crucial role in flood risk reduction. With this in mind, the Flanders Environment Agency executed a pilot study in which homeowners were offered free tailor-made advice on floodproofing. To evaluate the advice, we conducted interviews and a survey of the participating homeowners. On this basis we conclude that, to improve the homeowner’s contribution towards more effective flood-resilient (peri-)urban areas, there is a need for a more relational approach with other stakeholders.

Title: More than a one-size-fits-all approach – tailoring flood risk communication to plural residents’ perspectives
Abstract: 
 Many urban residences are insufficiently prepared for fluvial, pluvial or coastal floods, owing to a lack of accurate information on flood risk. This article analyzes how risk communication can improve disaster risk reduction by overcoming the expert–layperson gap. Building on interviews in three cities in the Netherlands, it applies Q methodology to identify four perspectives on flood risk communication. To promote greater private residential involvement in flood risk adaptation, communication should address all four rationalities.

Title: Deconstructing the legal framework for flood protection in Austria: individual and state responsibilities from a planning perspective
Abstract: 
 This article aims to analyze the legal framework for flood risk management in Austria, focusing on planning. Austria’s legal basis for flood risk management is fairly complex because its federal organization involves various administrative bodies and a fragmented legal framework. Regulations are numerous, as are competencies, which poses challenges. Implementation mechanisms vary between provinces; nevertheless, provincial regulations impose basic regulations regarding the building process. Regulations concerning private protection and mitigation measures for existing buildings are, however, limited.

Title: Too much water, not enough water: planning and property rights considerations for linking flood management and groundwater recharge
Abstract: 
 This article looks at the potential for connecting two circumstances present in California and elsewhere in the world: having too much water, in the form of flooding; and not having enough water, as evidenced by overdrafted groundwater. It describes reversing the historical practice of channelizing rivers to obtain a variety of integrated benefits: more effective flood management, improved recreational opportunities and habitat, better water quality, enhanced community vitality and improved groundwater recharge. It identifies planning approaches to connecting flood management and groundwater recharge and considers some of the potential legal issues if used with private property.

Title: Dealing with distributional effects of flood risk management in China: compensation mechanisms in flood retention areas
Abstract: 
 One of China’s flood protection strategies is to create flood retention areas. This article focuses on how China deals with the infringements of property use rights caused by the creation and use of flood retention areas. It describes the legal framework of flood retention areas, the associated compensation mechanisms and other mechanisms that may be used in the future to offset the adverse consequences of the rights of individuals in flood retention areas.

Title: Sticks and carrots for reducing property-level risks from floods: an EU–US comparative perspective
Abstract: 
 Post-flood policies and compensation regimes tend to focus on the resilience of public spaces and improving the adaptive capacity of future private property developments. This article focuses on the instruments associated with the resilience of existing privately owned residential buildings from the perspective of post-flood policies and compensation regimes. By reviewing the relevant legal and policy landscapes it aims to provide mutual lessons learned between the EU, its member states and the US and to set forth generally applicable recommendations for improving post-flood policies for existing buildings.

Title: China’s ‘old’ and ‘new’ Mekong River politics: the Lancang-Mekong Cooperation from a comparative benefit-sharing perspective
Abstract: 
 This article analyzes China’s Mekong River politics before and after the establishment of the Lancang-Mekong Cooperation (LMC) from a comparative benefit-sharing perspective. China’s pre-LMC approach focused too much on the creation of economic benefits from and beyond the river while neglecting ecological benefits to the river. Moreover, despite the problems this ‘old’ approach caused for China and its downstream neighbours, China’s current LMC strategy seems to essentially replicate its former approach. While sustainable water resources management is identified as a priority area, actual cooperation and benefit sharing in this field remain insufficient.

Title: Strategies for coping with inadequate domestic water supply in Abuja, Nigeria
Abstract: 
 This article explores household strategies for coping with inadequate domestic water supply in Abuja, and the factors that affect strategy choice. In-depth interviews found that water storage (90%), bottled and sachet water (82%), water vendors (78%) and fetching water from neighbours (60%) were prefered for coping with inadequate water supply over water conservation and recycling (38%), boreholes (23%), home water treatment (15%), and surface water (10%). The necessity of water, costs of coping strategies, housing characteristics, socio-economic factors and planning regulations influenced household choice of strategies.

Title: How does water information flow? Intersectionality in water information networks in a rural Ugandan community
Abstract: 
 This article presents evidence of a Ugandan community’s information network related to water services and argues that an intersectional perspective is key to understanding information exclusion processes. Using questionnaire data and social network analysis, the article compares access to water information channels by gender and education level. While men primarily share information with other men, women mainly exchange water information along educational lines. Less-educated women are least likely to receive information from other gender-education groups. Women are also underrepresented in the network of local government officials and consequently lack bridging ties, remaining more dependent on informal information channels.

Title: The Heilongjiang (Amur) River in Sino-Russian relations: from conflict towards cooperation
Abstract: 
 The Heilongjiang River has played the role of wind vane and barometer in the long history of Sino–Russian relations. From the seventeenth century, as a focus of disputes and conflicts, it has evolved to the present-day mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Russia. The current status of Sino–Russian interactions over the Heilongjiang River is basically cooperation due to the continuous improvement of bilateral relations. In the context of the Belt and Road Initiative, cooperation over the Heilongjiang River will provide an impetus to further deepen Sino–Russian relations.

Title: Coping with water supply interruptions: can citizen voice in transdisciplinary research make a difference?
Abstract: 
 Despite explicit legal and policy commitments, many South African residents do not have reliable access to potable water. Resident dissatisfaction with municipal water service delivery is evidenced by frequent civil protests. We consider how gathering and understanding the lived experiences of citizens could influence official responses to water interruptions. We take a transdisciplinary, problem-focussed, research approach to the experience of, and responses to, water interruptions, reflecting on the limitations of research to effect change in the lived experience. As transdisciplinary research praxis increasingly seeks expression in social outcomes, it is vital to confront both opportunities and limitations.

Title: Assessing the Indus Waters Treaty from a comparative perspective
Abstract: 
 The 1960 Indus Waters Treaty dividing the rivers of the Indus system between India and Pakistan has continued to  function through two wars and numerous political tensions. Nevertheless, given mounting pressures on the Indus’ waters due to population growth, climate change and mismanagement, many call for  abandonment or renegotiation of the treaty. This article situates these criticisms within the quantitative literature analyzing river treaties to demonstrate that the same critiques are applicable to many treaties. Comparative analysis also reveals that while some of the treaty’s weaknesses can be addressed, important structural obstacles render certain of its deficiencies difficult to correct.

Title: A participatory methodology for future scenario analysis of sub-national water and sanitation access: case study of Kisumu, Kenya
Abstract: 
 This study pilots a participatory methodology for sub-national spatial planning of urban and peri-urban water and sanitation services. Three groups of key informants were presented with evidence on national historic and future service provision trajectories and asked to map water and sanitation access in the city of Kisumu, Kenya, by 2030, assuming current trends continue. Comparison of the groups’ outputs suggests greater certainty among participants regarding service access in Kisumu’s urban core compared to peri-urban areas. We discuss extensions to this preliminary methodology, including the potential benefits of its application to Kenya’s rapidly expanding small towns as suggested by participants.

Title: Multi-track water diplomacy: current and potential future cooperation over the Brahmaputra River Basin
Abstract: 
 This article analyzes key factors affecting transboundary water cooperation in the Brahmaputra River basin at multiple scales. The analysis of multi-track diplomacy reaffirms the potential of actor-inclusive approaches, arguing for a need to go beyond purely focusing on formal legal norms and consider the possibilities of cultural norms of informal processes of cooperation. Various ‘windows of opportunity’ exist in the current phase of the Brahmaputra basin’s development, leading to exploration of a Zone of Possible Effective Cooperation, arising from the effort to scale up multi-track initiatives as well as broader geo-political-economic changes happening across and beyond the basin.

Title: Irrigation management transfer in sub-Saharan Africa: an analysis of policy implementation across scales
Abstract: 
 This article explores how irrigation management transfer policies were implemented in Mali, Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe. In Mali and Mozambique, where the irrigation bureaucracy controlled one large irrigation system, state agencies retained control over irrigation management despite reduced state funding. In Malawi and Zimbabwe, where the state irrigation systems and the irrigation bureaucracy were smaller, users have taken over irrigation management, but are having trouble sustaining irrigated agriculture. We show how irrigation management transfer policies were shaped by the interplay between international donors, macro-economic dynamics, national politics and the interactions with (and the nature of) irrigation infrastructure, bureaucracies and organized users.

Title: Problems and promise of managed recharge in karstified aquifers: the example of Lebanon
Abstract: 
 Managed aquifer recharge can store surface water as safe and reliable groundwater for later recovery. However, most options are problematic in karstic aquifers due to complex hydrodynamics reducing their effectiveness and hence general applicability. River bank filtration and urban stormwater infiltration systems are among the main managed recharge approaches to cope with this complexity. Experiences in Lebanon demonstrate the viability of these and other options in karstic domains.

Title: Drivers of groundwater utilization in water-limited rice production systems in Nepal
Abstract: 
 Most rice farmers in Nepal’s Terai region do not fully utilize irrigation during breaks in monsoon rainfall. This leads to yield losses despite abundant groundwater resources and ongoing expansion of diesel pumps and tubewell infrastructure. We investigate this puzzle by characterizing delay factors governing tubewell irrigation across wealth and precipitation gradients. After the decision to irrigate, different factors delay irrigation by roughly one week. While more sustainable and inexpensive energy for pumping may eventually catalyze transformative change, we identify near-term interventions that may increase rice farmers’ resilience to water stress in smallholder-dominated farming communities based on prevailing types of irrigation infrastructure.

Title: Measuring transboundary water cooperation within the framework of Agenda 2030: a proposal for a revision of SDG Indicator 6.5.2
Abstract: 
 Indicator 6.5.2 of the Sustainable Development Goals is defined as the ‘proportion of transboundary basin area with an operational arrangement for water cooperation’. While the establishment of such an indicator is most opportune and promising, its formulation and calculation raise technical, scientific and legal questions. This article primarily focuses on these legal issues. This manuscript assesses the indicator, addresses some of its key shortcomings, and offers a concrete and detailed proposal for an adjustment of its methodology and reporting mechanism, ahead of the 2020 revision of the SDG indicators by the Inter-agency and Expert Group on SDG Indicators.

Title: The role of irrigation associations and privatization policies in irrigation management in Turkey
Abstract: 
 In Turkey, the nearly total transfer of irrigation systems to the irrigation associations improved the collection of irrigation fees, but not water use efficiency. The Irrigation Associations Law initially accorded decentralized irrigation associations clear legal status as decentralized entities, but amendments to the law have restored significant government control over their administration. Privatization through service procurement and build-operate-transfer models was promoted by an enabling legal environment, but failed in implementation due to lack of consensus among stakeholders.

Title: Preferences for water treatment provision in rural India: comparing communal, pay-per-use, and labour-for-water schemes
Abstract: 
 Using a contingent valuation survey, this research identifies villagers’ willingness to pay towards the operation and maintenance of water treatment plants in 11 villages in Maharashtra with existing facilities. Preferences were elicited using three different payment mechanisms: a monthly fee, labour (time) contributions, and a pay-per-container mechanism. There was little support for the pay-per-container scheme (51% stated positive willingness to pay for this option), but the communal mechanisms were more popular (86.7% and 87.3%). We conclude that the long-term viability of water treatment in Maharashtra is weak, as few scenarios provide adequate revenue to properly operate and maintain the infrastructure.

Identifying the challenges in adopting desalination technology may help countries address water security concerns. In this article, we examine these challenges and present some of the solutions implemented in the Kingdom of Jordan, such as the creation of a cooperative water project to reduce financial investment and transportation costs and the coupling of renewable energy to desalination technology. Reverse osmosis desalination can play a role in promoting regional cooperation.

Title: Non-conventional resources for the coming drought: the development of rainwater harvesting systems in a Mediterranean suburban area
Abstract: 
 The city of Sant Cugat del Vallès (Spain) has made mandatory the installation of rainwater harvesting systems in new housing units with large gardens but also has provided subsidies to households to build these systems on a voluntary basis. We conducted a survey of households in both groups (mandatory and voluntary) to explore the effectiveness of these different types of policies. We see many similarities between the two groups, especially concerning satisfaction with the systems, and with their perceived environmental and economic benefits. The main difference was the preferred size of rainwater tanks.

Title: Water use characteristics and impact factors in the Yellow River basin, China
Abstract: 
 This study focuses on the water use characteristics and impact factors in the Yellow River basin. Water use increased from 1980 to 2000 and then stabilized. Water use in the eight regions of the basin varies significantly in both time and space. Water use in different sectors is sensitive to variations in the irrigation area, industrial added value, efficiency, population and urbanization. Change trends are the results of the joint effects of supply-and-demand relationship and water policy. Water use is insensitive to precipitation, because irrigation mainly relies on river water and groundwater.

Title: Smooth flows? Hydrosocial communities, water governance and infrastructural discord in Peru’s southern highlands
Abstract: 
 The article examines how the design and governance of Peru’s water infrastructure shape the social practices and cultural values stakeholders engage in and draw on when negotiating water rights in a year of drought. Reviewing ethnographic data on a large irrigation project in south-western Peru, we discuss how the project both perpetuates power relations between water experts, authorities and users and creates room to challenge its hierarchical organization. The project’s infrastructural assemblage of state and community canals offers an interesting case to explore how the stakeholder cooperation encouraged by Peru’s water law produces hydrosocial communities.

Title: When the river does not naturally flow: a case study of unsustainable management in the Tagus River (Spain)
Abstract: 
 This article assesses the main problems facing the Spanish Tagus River basin, and the management that has caused (or allowed) them. It examines the economic, social, environmental and political-institutional dimensions of Tagus River management in terms of sustainable development. We find that the institutions responsible for designing and implementing water policy in the Tagus basin have been unsuccessful in balancing the three classic dimensions of sustainability, resulting in systematic and recurrent failure to comply with the European Water Framework Directive and the principles of sustainable development.

Title: Women and WASH in Nepal: a scoping review of existing literature
Abstract: 
 The relationship between gender and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) services is an issue for many developing states. This scoping review demonstrates that in Nepal, women bear the major social burden of inadequate WASH services and are under-represented in WASH-related policies and programmes. Four themes emerge: gender and water projects; lack of equal female participation in WASH policy development and implementation; women’s access to water; and menstruation and menstrual hygiene. Major cultural barriers embedded in Nepali society limit women’s access, agency and participation in WASH-related policy and practice.

Title: Regulation reform process and perception in the Palestinian water sector
Abstract: 
 The study analyzes the regulation reform process of the Palestinian urban water sector. It introduces the holistic reform agenda and examines the water supply sector’s performance and regulation challenges. The study also evaluates the perception of water service providers regarding the regulation reforms. Collected evidence indicates a dominant interpretation of the regulation concept based on rules and legislation, coupled with a neglect of aspects like monitoring, economic regulation and managerial accountability. The lack of awareness of the benefits of these aspects for service providers can increase resistance to reform and reduce willingness to participate in implementing comprehensive sector regulation.

Title: Evaluating spatial and seasonal determinants of residential water demand across different housing types through data integration
Abstract: 
 This study used a new approach in data integration to fully evaluate water consumption across different housing types, income groups and seasons in Auckland, New Zealand. Using urban GIS-based databases, we developed a sample of 60,000 dwellings through integration of water consumption, land use and census microdata. We find that household size is the major determinant of water use across all housing types in Auckland. But household water consumption, and its seasonal and spatial variations, is significantly higher in detached houses than in apartments due to greater outdoor water use.

Title: Transboundary governance in the La Plata River basin: status and prospects
Abstract: 
 The La Plata River Basin’s transboundary institutional arrangement is a complex system with different geographical bases and scopes, including 14 international organizations, four technical committees and one groundwater commission (not yet implemented). This article examines this institutional architecture by outlining the characteristics of cooperative arrangements established under treaties as a way of analyzing how the process of water governance takes place between riparian states. The large number of institutions contrasts with the modest number of joint actions and projects, which prompts questions about their role in the governance process, especially considering the lack of transparency and information about their performance.

Title: Institutional factors affecting fish passage in the Columbia River Treaty renegotiation
Abstract: 
 The United States and Canada have begun renegotiating the Columbia River Treaty, which is an international model for transboundary water governance. This paper identifies six institutional factors that will affect negotiations pertaining to fish passage during the renegotiation of the treaty: geographical advantage, issue linkage, a basin commission, the duration of agreements, negotiating autonomy and side payments. These factors and the methods used to determine them can be applied to other transboundary river basins where basin states have a history of transboundary resource governance. This analysis also serves as a policy-relevant resource for Columbia River Treaty negotiators and stakeholders.

Title: Progress beyond policy making? Assessing the performance of Dutch-German cross-border cooperation in Deltarhine
Abstract: 
 This longitudinal study assesses the performance of the Dutch-German cross-border water regime using a combination of performance indicators. The regime has, despite many efforts over five decades, rarely progressed beyond policy making and hardly contributed to actual problem-solving for issues such as water pollution or river restoration. Stakeholder satisfaction is nevertheless high, showing that combined performance indicators are needed to assess cross-border cooperation, and performance cannot simply be equated with problem-solving and goal attainment. Practical policy advice is provided to progress beyond policy making, focusing on policy design, network management and the adequacy of resources (financial, human, legal) for policy implementation.

Title: Non-decisions are also decisions: power interplay between Bangladesh and India over the Brahmaputra River
Abstract: 
 This article shows how Bangladesh and India intentionally maintain the status quo for the Brahmaputra River at the transboundary level, using material and ideational resources. Results show that India wants to reduce its hegemonic vulnerabilities and Bangladesh aims to maintain its control over the Brahmaputra river, simultaneously building its technical and negotiation skills. We conclude that the underlying processes of maintaining the status quo can be comprehended as ‘non-decision making’. The analysis presented will help policy actors to push towards a forward-looking climate change adaptation planning for the Brahmaputra River.

Title: Transboundary water diplomacy among small states: a giant dilemma for Central American regionalism
Abstract: 
 Water diplomacy aims to shift water disputes from zero-sum games into positive-sum cooperation models though actor-driven approaches. Small states are often viewed as facilitators of diplomacy through a commitment to regionalism and consensus, which highlights their influence in international affairs. Responding to the research question, ‘How do “non-decisions” lead to status quo in water diplomacy?’ this article discusses how regional water diplomacy based on influence is weakened by the domestic shortcomings of small states’ political systems, where authorities use non-decision-making to maintain a status quo that guarantees their legitimized power.

Title: Energizing Mid–East water diplomacy: The potential for regional water–energy exchanges
Abstract: 
 This article presents a nongovernmental initiative to address asymmetric hydropolitical relations in the Jordan River basin through issue linkage. The initiative would develop desalination capacity along the Mediterranean to supply water to Jordan, with Jordan generating and distributing solar energy to Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Such a project could provide a range of economic, environmental and geopolitical benefits to the parties involved, though it would also increase national dependencies on critical resources, which may be a serious impediment to adoption. Still, such mutual dependencies may be preferable to the current unilateral and asymmetric relations.

Title: Engaging non-state actors in the negotiation and implementation of international watercourse agreements: experiences and lessons learned from Canada
Abstract: 
 Each nation-state has the discretion to decide whether, and to what extent, to engage ‘non-state’ actors in, and incorporate their interests into, the negotiation or implementation of international agreements. Through the prism of Canadian local governments along the Columbia River, we analyze some of the relevant practice in engaging non-state actors in the management of international shared watercourses. This article reviews the valuable role non-state actors can play in the negotiation and implementation of transboundary water agreements.

Title: Transboundary waters, conflicts and international cooperation - examples of the La Plata basin
Abstract: 
 This article details the case of the La Plata basin, a transboundary basin shared between Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. By addressing some cases of disputes between local and state actors in the La Plata basin, we show that even with an institutional framework for cooperation and transboundary water management, conflicts and tension might remain between riparian states.

Title: China’s water diplomacy in the Mekong: a paradigm shift and the role of Yunnan provincial government
Abstract: 
 This article examines the recent changes in China’s Mekong River policy and investigates the contributing factors. In the past few years, China has shifted from an upstream sovereignty stance to launch a multilateral transboundary water diplomacy initiative in the Mekong River basin through the Lancang-Mekong Cooperation Mechanism. We conclude that China’s adoption of water diplomacy in the Mekong River is partially attributable to international activism by the Yunnan provincial government and its associated actors.

Title: Analysis for water conflict transformation
Abstract: 
 This article proposes and fleshes out an analytical method designed to support efforts to transform inequitable and unsustainable transboundary water arrangements. Such ‘transformative analysis’ leverages socio-ecological thinking to critically evaluate the processes that have established and maintain an arrangement, including hydro-diplomacy itself. Transformative analysis facilitates the interpretation of strategies to deflect transformation, identification of destructive forms of cooperation, and strategic classification of opportunities for transformation. The assertions are premised on an understanding of the particularities of water conflict, and followed by a discussion of ways researchers may overcome the challenges inherent in the method.

Title: Knowledge, context and problemsheds: a critical realist method for interdisciplinary water studies
Abstract: 
 Understanding water issues as problemsheds addresses the narrowly water-centred framing of watershed and basin-focused water research and policy. In a critical realist approach problemshed also serves to identify the context-specificity of water knowledge, by navigating between the extremes of positivist generalization and interpretivist local specificity and bridging the divide between academic and applied research by identifying the structural similarity in their problem framing. Problemshed is operationalized by situating it in critical realism’s structures-mechanisms-events ontology, and by drawing on realist evaluation’s context-mechanism-outcome configurations. I use large-scale canal irrigation in India to illustrate how this is done.

Title: Informal water vendors and the urban poor: evidence from a Nairobi slum
Abstract: 
 In Kenya, informal urban water markets serve the poor in areas where public utilities have failed to deliver. They often charge high prices, sell low-quality water and perform water transactions in a way that is unfair to the buyers. They still remain one of the most popular alternatives for water provision, as they can offer flexibility of supply arrangements and payment systems which are beyond the scope of large-scale water providers. In the major restructuring of Kenya’s urban water delivery system towards commercialization and privatization, these private vendors are being regularized for better service delivery in terms of regulation of prices and quality of water.

Title: Reconceptualization of the Transboundary Water Interaction Nexus (TWINS): approaches, opportunities and challenges
Abstract: 
 Using a critical hydropolitics approach, we broaden the context of the Transboundary Water Interaction Nexus framework to provide a tool to analyze interstate relations on the sideline of selected water-related issues regardless of the legal status of actors; distinguish nuances between six intensities of cooperation and conflict; and simultaneously evaluate water events as a form of cooperation, conflict, or both.

Title: Does state capacity matter for foreign aid effectiveness? Panel data evidence on water from 87 countries
Abstract: 
 This study attempts to measure how the effectiveness of aid to the drinking water sector is mediated by state capacity. I use panel data on a sample of 87 aid-receiving countries, with the Bureaucratic Quality Index as a measure of state capacity. Employing random effects, fixed effects, and system GMM techniques, the study empirically and robustly finds that state capacity does not have a significant positive mediating impact on aid effectiveness in increasing access to improved water sources. I also find that the mediating impact of state capacity is contingent on the level of democracy in aid-receiving countries.

Title: Exploring the future impacts of urbanization and climate change on groundwater in Arusha, Tanzania
Abstract: 
 We combine satellite imagery, urban growth modelling, groundwater modelling and hydrogeological field expeditions to estimate the potential impacts in 2050 of rapid urbanization and climate change on groundwater in Arusha, Tanzania, and by extension similar areas in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our analysis suggests that a reduction of groundwater recharge by 30–44% will cause groundwater levels to drop by up to 75 m, mainly due to increased evapotranspiration and to an expansion in paved surface. If this scenario becomes reality, we predict that wells will run dry, creating health, social and environmental risks.

Title: Smart water management: can it improve accessibility and affordability of water for everyone?
Abstract: 
 By improving the operational capacity of utilities, smart water systems may enable utilities to improve access to water services and their affordability. Use of smart technologies is increasing in leading-edge utilities for this purpose. However, water access may be problematic where utilities perform poorly or when utilities do not choose to extend universal service, and smart tools can address both problems with increased effectiveness of operations and improved customer interfaces. In either setting, effective governance is required, and security and privacy issues will be of concern. To explore the feasibility of smart tools, demonstration projects will be needed with political and financial support. An example of using smart tools to facilitate service extension in collective housing is presented. While this is one way to use smart tools, other pathways are available, especially their use to improve overall effectiveness of utility operations.

Title: Institutional innovation and smart water management technologies in small-scale irrigation schemes in southern Africa
Abstract: 
 This paper reports on the introduction of SWM technology, soil moisture and nutrient monitoring tools, alongside Agricultural Innovation Platforms (AIP) in three small-scale irrigation schemes in southern Africa. Quantitative and qualitative data are presented on the changes and benefits that have resulted, including increased yield and profitability. The findings emphasize that information prior and subsequent to adoption is needed, and the importance of understanding and enhancing the incentive framework for behavioural change, including both economic and physical returns. The findings illustrate SWM technology is strengthened when introduced with credible multi-stakeholder processes, such as an AIP, that facilitate institutional innovation.

Title: A GIS-based solution for urban water management
Abstract: 
 Water management systems have an increasing impact on the development of sustainable urban services. The development of a geographic information system applied to water management is presented in this article after taking the priorities of smart cities into account. This system has been fully developed with free open source software to create a main system based on an efficient and specific proposed data model, along with four smart tools that have been developed for the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria: water network validations, visual trace simulation, historical data navigation and smart supply cuts. Thanks to this system, the water management company will be able to adapt its policies to offer a better customer experience and consumption plans based on predictive tools. The advantages for managers of water management companies are highlighted and discussed.

Title: SWM and urban water: Smart management for an absurd system?
Abstract: 
 Only a very small fraction of the potable water produced by urban centres is used for a need requiring the highest-quality water. Urban water infrastructure has evolved over the past century without considering whether past practices make sense for a future with stressed ecosystems and a changing climate. Smart water techniques are vital to optimize existing infrastructure. However, for urban water servicing of the future, guiding principles developed through consultation, a long-term vision, and tailor-made plans for local conditions are needed. A coordinated research agenda to address many common challenges could support implementation of the plans and the vision.

Title: The moral hazards of smart water management
Abstract: 
 Smart water management (SWM) brings technological sophistication to water governance by providing monitoring, operational and communications capacities through real-time information. SWM’s quantification appeals to metric-driven governance but, we argue, also perpetuates a technocratic and instrumental-rationalist mindset. The peril of this mindset is that it sees technology as a solution for sustainability problems caused by deep-seated structural and behavioural faults. This essay reflects on this dynamic by siting the SWM concept within discussions about technocracy, moral hazard and power dynamics. It suggests that SWM’s rhetorical positioning undermines its own goals while naively seeking universal applicability, resolvable by embracing the precautionary principle.

Title: Mercury pollution in Colombia: challenges to reduce the use of mercury in artisanal and small-scale gold mining in the light of the Minamata Convention
Abstract: 
 The Minamata Convention on Mercury, which entered into full force in August 2017, was signed by more than 100 countries, including several where artisanal and small-scale gold mining is practised, such as Brazil, China, Ecuador, Ghana, Peru and Colombia. Focused on Colombia, the country that likely faces the most difficult challenges to implement this convention, this paper discusses the extent of mercury pollution in the water sources of the country and the barriers Colombia must overcome to comply with the Minamata Convention. Many of these same barriers are also present in other countries impacted by artisanal and small-scale gold mining.

Title: An adaptation pathways approach to water management and governance of tourist islands: the example of the Southern Aegean Region in Greece
Abstract: 
 Approaches to decision making for adaptation need to be place-centred and to consider the interacting changes that occur at different spatiotemporal scales. Τhe adaptation pathways approach provides an interesting input to this end. In this article, we fine-tune the adaptation pathways considerations to the management and governance of water in tourist islands vulnerable to water stress. We base our analysis on literature on climate change, adaptive Integrated Water Resources Management and governance, water and tourism, and social-ecological systems. We illustrate our theoretical analysis with the example of the Southern Aegean islands in Greece, based on secondary sources and interviews with stakeholders.

Title: The shifted ownership regime of a common-pool resource: the case of water exploitation in Sanandaj County, Iran
Abstract: 
 In this article, we reveal how a shift of water ownership regime has affected overexploitation of water resources in Sanandaj County, Iran, since the nationalization of water resources and centralization of the water policy in the 1960s. The shift was subject to structural changes concerning monitoring, the size and type of user groups, and the actors involved, and we conclude that the state has unintentionally turned a communal ownership regime into a regime of open access to common-pool resources. The article adds to the knowledge on how a communal ownership regime could successfully sustain water as a common-pool resource.

Title: Water and sanitation in Dhaka slums: access, quality, and informality in service provision
Abstract: 
 Slum populations are commonly characterized as having poorly developed water and sanitation systems and may access services through informal channels. However, there are limited representative profiles of water and sanitation services in slums, making it difficult to prioritize interventions that will make services safer for residents. This cross-sectional study examines the quality of and access to water and sanitation services in government-defined slums across Dhaka, Bangladesh. Access is generally high but is subject to quality issues related to safety, reliability and liability. Services are often operated by informal middlemen at various stages of provision.

Title: Radiation knowledge and willingness to buy bottled water from regions near the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant
Abstract: 
 The study determined whether consumers informed about radiation have a higher willingness to buy (WTB) bottled water from regions near the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (Fukushima Daiichi). The study also investigated what types of radiation knowledge are effective in mitigating negative images about bottled water from these regions. We found that consumers with radiation knowledge have a higher WTB than those uninformed about radiation, and some types of radiation knowledge have a positive effect on WTB. Our study indicates the importance of enhancing radiation knowledge to improve WTB bottled water from regions near the Fukushima Daiichi.

Title: Water: consumption, usage patterns, and residential infrastructure. A comparative analysis of three regions in the Lima metropolitan area
Abstract: 
 This study examines the impact of infrastructure and residents’ water usage patterns (internal factors) and climate (external factor) on household water consumption. Through quantitative information from the service provider and qualitative data from 900 surveys in three areas with different socio-economic levels (high, middle and low) in the Lima metropolitan area, an average user profile is determined for each area. The results are further assessed and compared to establish the impact of internal and external factors on water consumption. These results help in establishing water handling policies and developing residential infrastructure design for efficient and sustainable use of water.

Title: Mapping and navigating ontologies in water governance: the case of the Ganges
Abstract: 
 The foregrounding of economic interests to the exclusion of broadly termed ‘cultural’ interests in water governance has been challenged by the grant of legal personality to rivers, including the Ganges. In this article, we explore the 2017 Ganges judgment of the High Court of Uttarakhand, which conferred legal personality on the river, as a case study which exemplifies the recognition and negotiation of different ontologies of water. We explore the judgment’s simultaneous mobilization of the Ganges as socio-economic resource, ecosystem and spiritual being. Our analysis engages with possible tensions between water ontologies, and we ask how ontological conjunctures may be foregrounded, and disjunctures navigated, in practice.

Title: A methodology to identify vulnerable transboundary aquifer hotspots for multi-scale groundwater management
Abstract: 
 Thirty-eight aquifer units are shared between Malawi and its neighbouring countries. It is essential to prioritize those transboundary aquifers that require immediate attention. A methodology of identifying hotspots in the transboundary aquifers of Malawi that may be at risk of depletion or contamination has been developed. There are 11 local-scale and three national-scale hotspots of transboundary concern in Malawi. Fiscal and planning measures can now be taken to assess these areas in more detail, fostering transboundary cooperation between stakeholders at both local and national scales.

Title: The devil’s in the details: data exchange in transboundary waters
Abstract: 
 Data exchange in transboundary waters is fundamental to advance cooperative water management. Nonetheless, the degree to which data are shared is not well understood. To gauge this degree, an assessment framework was developed and applied in 25 international river basins. The framework captures the degree to which a set of data parameters is exchanged among countries. A reasonable proportion of surveyed basins exchange some data, but the breadth of such exchange is often limited, and not regular. This paper highlights where data exchange can be improved and provides guidance on how indicators used in global assessment frameworks can motivate this improvement.

Title: Women’s lived-experiences of water infrastructure in Gressier, Haiti
Abstract: 
 Using semi-structured interviews and ethnographic investigation, this paper provides information about the status of water infrastructure in a region of Haiti where records of existing infrastructure are not otherwise accessible. This research explores perceptions of water quality, common infrastructure barriers to accessing water sources and community-led solutions to water insecurity. The results indicate that water resource provision frequently lacks sustainability and documentation, placing the burden of access and maintenance on local actors. Individual attempts to secure household water resources, such as piped water to the house or yard, also demonstrate a significant risk to the efficacy and durability of water infrastructure.

Title: Assessing the operational efficiency of wastewater services whilst accounting for data uncertainty and service quality: a semi-parametric approach
Abstract: 
 Wastewater services involve complex technical and environmental processes. Conventional performance assessments often disregard the service quality aspects of the sector. This article applies an advanced semi-parametric modelling framework based on data envelopment analysis to measure the economic efficiency of wastewater service provision in Australia whilst accounting for service quality. We find that the volume and type of sewer treatment, the number of treatment plants, and population density are among the exogenous factors that influence the operational efficiency of wastewater utilities. Inclusion of service quality parameters can make a significant difference in efficiency evaluations.

Title: Sino-Kazakhstan transboundary water allocation cooperation study: analysis of willingness and policy implementation
Abstract: 
 During the process of bridging conflicting water interests, cooperation and conflict tend to co-exist. The main aim of this research is to identify the reason behind the intensified water relationship between China and Kazakhstan. In this regard, the main research question is: what are the barriers hindering the implementation of Sino-Kazakhstan water allocation cooperation? In order to answer this question, the research applies a qualitative analysis approach to assemble the crucial descriptors that allow the main barriers to be categorized, such as appreciation of water, initial willingness, institutional conflict resolution, and bureaucratic system constraints. This is intended to provide an assessment of the motivation, organization, and implementation of Sino-Kazakhstan transboundary water management, based on interdisciplinary literature on water management and international law. This research ultimately finds that the opposite interests, reluctance, ambiguity in the legal framework, and poor intra-governmental coordination negatively impact the implementation of Sino-Kazakhstan water allocation cooperation.

Title: Community response to the provision of alternative water supplies: A focus on chronic kidney disease of unknown aetiology (CKDu) in rural Sri Lanka
Abstract: 
 Until recently, households in the most chronic kidney disease-affected rural areas of Sri Lanka used untreated groundwater for drinking and cooking, but, by 2018, that share was only 35%. About 50% of households consume water treated by reverse osmosis; others rely on piped water, water delivery by tanker and rainwater harvesting. Based on a new and representative survey of 1500 households, households’ propensities to treat drinking water and adopt improved water sources are shown to be associated with their perceptions of water safety and trust in the institutions that provide alternatives to untreated well water.

Title: Livelihood security enhancement though innovative water management in dryland India
Abstract: 
 Locally nuanced community-based shallow groundwater management interventions have proven important in saline and sodic monsoonal regions. A mixed methods approach characterizes achievement of regeneration of the formerly degraded socio-ecological system of Laporiya village in the semi-arid Salt Lake region of Rajasthan state (India), with a focus on locally adapted chauka systems. Local people are key participants and agents as well as principal beneficiaries of innovative nature-based management interventions. Technological innovations and governance are adapted to environmental processes and local livelihood priorities, resisting imposed engineered solutions. Findings are transferrable to dryland areas facing similar challenges of declining water and livelihood security.

Title: The practical challenges of achieving sustainable wetland agriculture in Nigeria’s Cross River basin
Abstract: 
 The practical challenges of achieving sustainable wetland agriculture in Nigeria are examined. Three wetland communities were studied with observations, meetings, focus groups, interviews, a workshop and a review of the literature. We find that the available wetlands are greatly under-utilized due to meteorological and climate-related challenges, poor human capacities, absence of science–policy collaboration, complex land tenure regimes and a lack of supportive infrastructure. Climate change impact manifests in either excessive seasonal flooding or prolonged drought, with consequences for livelihoods. Improving the utilization and productivity of the wetlands will require strong public policies, appropriate investment, human capacity building, science–policy–society cooperation and supportive infrastructure.

Title: Can a ‘modern’ irrigation system and a traditional smallholder gravitational system coexist? A view from Marakwet, Kenya
Abstract: 
 Irrigation and improved agricultural inputs have been promoted by the New African Green Revolution to close yield gaps in Sub-Saharan Africa. Can this approach coexist with local indigenous irrigation systems? We examine an irrigation scheme financed by both the Kenyan and Canadian Red Cross and put in place in 2015 in Marakwet, Kenya, where a gravity irrigation system has been operated by local people for three centuries. Grounded on ethnographic data, we show how the current rhetoric and operationalization of top-down irrigation projects disregard, instead of harnessing, local agricultural knowledge which would ensure sustainable farming in the context of resource-poor and climate-challenged communities.

 Through a case study of farmers in India we examine the relationship between drip irrigation subsidy policies, farmer adoption and technological choice. We examine changes in the subsidy design and the implications that these have for farmers. We show how the negotiation of multiple interests influences the kind of technology promoted and the design of the subsidy programme. This creates barriers to adoption, particularly for relatively resource-poor farmers. For these famers, the relative advantages of low-cost alternative technologies appear to be significant.

Title: Building foundations for source-to-sea management: the case of sediment management in the Lake Hawassa sub-basin of the Ethiopian Rift Valley
Abstract: 
 This article discusses experiences of applying the source-to-sea approach, contextualized to source-to-lake, in the Lake Hawassa sub-basin of the Ethiopian Rift Valley, particularly for the purpose of generating in-depth knowledge on sediment flows, building a geographically relevant comprehensive stakeholder and governance analysis and using this to design impactful interventions that can reduce sediment flux into Lake Hawassa. The source-to-sea approach has proven to be a useful and flexible for evaluating sediment management in the context of a sub-basin such as that of Lake Hawassa.

Title: Environmental management in the Bohai and Baltic seas from a source-to-sea perspective: challenges and opportunities
Abstract: 
 There are many important linkages between land, freshwater and oceans. Source-to-sea (S2S) management has been proposed to support environmental management that considers interests along the S2S continuum. This study takes the Bohai and Baltic seas as examples to analyse the legislation system, administrative structure and stakeholders of freshwater and marine management in China and the European Union and presents the related challenges and opportunities for S2S management. The results of this study can provide a basis for designing initiatives to support healthy ecosystems and sustainable green and blue economies, reduce the burdens on water-related ecosystems, and improve economic opportunities and livelihoods.

Title: Success and sustainability of nutrient pollution reduction in the Danube River Basin: recovery and future protection of the Black Sea Northwest shelf
Abstract: 
 The nutrient loads transported by the Danube River to the Black Sea peaked around the late 1980s, causing massive hypoxia that was accompanied with a severe algae growth. Since then, emissions and loads have declined in response to the measures implemented in the Danube River Basin, together with the declining intensity of agriculture. The International Commission for the Protection of the Danube River (ICPDR) initiated Basin-wide activities to support national water policy-making to ensure both the sustainable development of wastewater infrastructure and agricultural production, and the effective protection of freshwater and marine ecosystems.

Title: A source-to-sea approach to emerging pollutants in freshwater and oceans: pharmaceuticals in the Baltic Sea region
Abstract: 
 This study highlights the transport of emerging pollutants through the source-to-sea hydrological cycle. Based on a UNESCO–HELCOM study on pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment in the Baltic Sea region, it presents information on pharmaceutical sales and the detection of different types of pharmaceuticals in wastewater, sludge, river water, seawater, ocean sediment and marine biota. It highlights the new science-based policy developments and commitments to reduce the discharge of emerging pollutants into aquatic environments in the Baltic Sea region that have been developed in the framework of HELCOM. It concludes with recommendations for future research and policy responses.

Title: A visualization tool for citizen-science marine debris big data
Abstract: 
 We describe the design and structure of a web-based visualization tool for an Australian marine debris database and its application in environmental research, management and science communication. We give examples of its use in generating hypotheses regarding processes driving the distribution of marine debris, identifying source reduction opportunities and communicating science to the public and stakeholders. We suggest this as a model for utilizing other latent environmental data sets, enabling users to implement the five ‘source-to-sea’ steps to characterize, engage, diagnose, design, act and adapt when addressing leading environmental concerns.

Title: Community-of-interests across source-to-sea systems: an international law perspective
Abstract: 
 The paper examines source-to-sea (S2S) systems under international law from the perspective of the community-of-interests doctrine. It positions S2S systems alongside the drainage basin approach, which delimits the Doctrine’s primary biogeographical scope. Community-of-interests is based on the physical unity of a drainage basin, which creates multidimensional interdependence between states, and thereby gives rise to common interests that tend to require catchment-wide joint cooperation. On the basis of treaty and case law, the paper investigates the extent to which the Doctrine, premised chiefly on the basin, may contribute to the sustainable management of S2S systems.

Title: Governing resilient landscapes across the source-to-sea continuum
Abstract: 
 The source-to-sea continuum links the interconnected ecosystems of the water cycle with the associated socioeconomic processes, demands and pressures. Maximizing benefits and protecting existing resources through integrated water management and governance at scale capitalizes on existing institutional and governmental asymmetries by developing an outcome-driven management that builds on existing local, national and transboundary legal frameworks to enhance connectivity. This paper presents how to action this through focusing on three areas of governance: benefit-sharing dialogues for shared visioning; a multi-stakeholder platform to increase coordination in decision-making both up- and downstream; and improved agency coordination between basins and coasts.

Title: When the water runs dry: supporting adaptive governance in transboundary river basins
Abstract: 
 Impacts of global climate change will primarily be felt through the water cycle. Adaptation to changing conditions in transboundary basins is an important precondition to ensure regional sustainable development and political stability. However, adaptation measures in one basin country can affect water resources and adaptation options elsewhere, therefore often requiring coordinated or joint responses by riparian countries. The paper examines the potential of climate policy instruments in strengthening adaptation to changes in transboundary river basins in North America’s Colorado River Basin and Southern Africa’s Orange-Senqu River Basin. It finds that climate policy instruments are yet rarely employed to jointly manage adaptation in shared rivers but nonetheless harbour great potential.

Title: Agri-vector water: boosting rainfed agriculture with urban water allocation to support urban–rural linkages
Abstract: 
 We propose the concept of ‘agri-vector water’ (AVW) to refer to water allocated to towns to maintain urban-based agricultural services that support rainfed farming in surrounding areas. AVW captures the idea that highly scarce ‘blue water’ can be productively used in this way to support rainfed ‘green water’ rather than be applied as consumptive irrigation, especially when the latter exacerbates water shortages during drought and dry seasons in arid and semi-arid regions. To illustrate, we present two case studies from Ethiopia.

Title: The political economy of coordinating water, sanitation and hygiene management policies and programmes for Nigeria
Abstract: 
 Improving access to water, sanitation and hygiene (WaSH) is at the core of the Global 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, but achieving this goal depends on the extent to which policy decisions reflect local science and circumstances. We examine the extent to which the WaSH sector is coordinated in Nigeria through interviews, workshops and literature reviews. Findings demonstrate that WaSH related agencies pursue conflicting goals shaped by international agenda, preferences of donors as well as economic and political interests of actors. These and related factors limit the capacity for coordination, innovation and knowledge sharing for evidence-based and home-grown policies.

Title: Impact of land use and occupation on potential groundwater recharge in a Brazilian savannah watershed
Abstract: 
 This study evaluates the impact of land use and occupation changes on potential groundwater recharge in a Brazilian savannah watershed. The results show that potential groundwater recharge was directly influenced by changing scenarios in the watershed. The impact of land use and occupation changes was assessed by considering current land use and the replacement of all agricultural crops by soybeans (scenario 1) and natural savannah (scenario 2). We conclude that the processes of land occupation of the watershed should be understood in order to minimize reductions in the potential groundwater recharge in a watershed located in the Brazilian savannah biome.

Title: Economy-wide assessment of potential long-term impacts of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on Sudan
Abstract: 
 The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) is expected to double Ethiopia’s electricity generation and impact River Nile flows to Sudan and Egypt. We analyse potential economy-wide impacts on Sudan of the GERD’s long-term operation using a computable general equilibrium model and outputs of previous studies from biophysical models. Based on a 20% increase in hydropower and an assumed rapid irrigation expansion timeline, the results show that the GERD could help increase Sudan's accumulated gross domestic product (GDP) by US$47-83 billion over the period 2020-60 (excluding initial investment costs and other GERD negative and positive impacts). The choice of crops in new irrigation schemes is key to increasing Sudan’s macro-economic benefits.

Title: The implications of social and economic barriers to safe drinking water for municipal level policy in Ghana
Abstract: 
 This study explores the experiences of poor households who have been ‘left behind’ in their access to safe drinking water in Ghana. Using a cross-sectional survey of seven communities in the Offinso-North District, we identify physical and economic barriers that make it difficult for households to collect sufficient water for use. Efforts to leave no one behind in water access and use should target these barriers.

Title: Diffusion of small-scale pumped irrigation technologies and their association with farmer-led irrigation development in Malawi
Abstract: 
 The adoption of small-scale pumped irrigation technologies was evaluated using field surveys in Malawi. Four pumped systems were identified, distinguished by ownership (group versus individual) and technology (treadle versus motorized). Farmer access to pumps was either through organizational support (incentivized) or privately (self-motivated), with progression depending on the mode of access and farmers’ attributes. Self-motivated farmers had better socioeconomic status and access to knowledge supporting the pumps’ continued use. Conversely, incentives drive the uptake of other pumps, and the provision of continued external support reinforced their continued use. Farmers need to be supported beyond affordability by safeguarding the availability and maintenance of pumps.

Title: Testing an open app-based water management information system and its uptake among stakeholders in the Upper-Comoé river basin (Burkina Faso)
Abstract: 
 Managing sustainably natural resources in an increasingly populated world is challenging, even more so when information asymmetries and conflicting interests exacerbate tensions among stakeholders. We used a principal–agent framework to analyse these dilemmas while testing the development of an open-source information platform for water users in the Upper-Comoé river basin (Burkina Faso). Information on water retrieval and delivery was shared through schematic maps in a WhatsApp water user group. By reducing information asymmetries, the system enhanced water delivery and distribution, and attenuated water-related conflicts. The study suggests that an open-source, low-cost application can enhance information access and sharing, reducing common principal–agent problems.

Title: Groundwater policies and irrigation development: a study of West Bengal, India, 1980–2016
Abstract: 
 After a prolonged agrarian impasse, agricultural production in West Bengal, India, grew at an unprecedented rate in the 1980s, a process in which the expansion of groundwater irrigation played an important role. The growth of groundwater irrigation and agricultural production, however, decelerated from the early 1990s. This paper argues that the deceleration in groundwater irrigation development in West Bengal since 1995 is primarily attributed to the adoption of different regulatory policies in two ways: directly, through controlling the overall installation of tubewells or decelerating tubewell electrification; and indirectly, through high electricity pricing for water use in agriculture.

Title: Strategies for climate change adaptation: lessons learnt from long-term planning in the Netherlands and Bangladesh
Abstract: 
 This paper evaluates long-term climate change adaptation strategies in the Netherlands and Bangladesh using the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) Principles of Good Water Governance. Deltas face complex challenges, and adequate long-term planning is essential for these regions. However, experience with these long-term planning efforts and linkages with theoretical frameworks on water-related policy and strategy development remain limited. Both countries politically approved significant investment portfolios for a durable adaptive strategy. This paper highlights the similarities and differences in the resulting strategies. Using the learning assessment methodology, we propose to add risk-based approaches and long-term strategic perspectives as additional OECD Principles in the conclusion.

Title: Got a minute for the future of the Rio Grande? Considering the prospects for a sustainability minute in the wake of the Colorado’s Minute 323
Abstract: 
 Despite tensions between Mexico and the United States, the countries continue to develop cooperative strategies to manage shared water resources under the Treaty on the Utilization of Waters of the Colorado and Tijuana Rivers and of the Rio Grande. These strategies include agreements in 2012 and 2017 to advance sustainable management of the Colorado. Unfortunately, these advances have not been mirrored by improvements for the Rio Grande. We consider Minutes 319 and 323, examine the potential for a minute to create similar benefits for the Rio Grande, and offer recommendations to improve stakeholder engagement, binational cooperation and sustainability in that basin.

Title: Managerial, clientelist or populist? Lake governance in the Indian city of Bangalore
Abstract: 
 Lakes in the Indian city of Bangalore face conservation challenges. In order to analyse these conservation challenges, the article uses DiGaetano and Strom’s framework on urban governance to identify and analyse the different modes of lake governance which are at play within the city. Using data from semi-structured interviews and secondary research, this research argues that three modes of governance (managerial, clientelist and populist) characterize the city’s lake system. Conflict amongst these modes of governance, which often act at cross-purposes to each other, may be one of the reasons why Bangalore has been unable to protect its lakes.

Title: Unpacking wastewater reuse arrangements through a new framework: insights from the analysis of Egypt
Abstract: 
 Wastewater reuse is identified as strategic to help ameliorate scarcity in water-stressed regions around the world. However, to develop it, there is a need to better understand the social, institutional and technological contexts in which it takes place. This article develops a novel socio-technical framework to inform such an analysis and applies it to current wastewater reuse in Egypt. Our analysis highlights the different actors, management activities and practices that shape wastewater collection, transfer, treatment, discharge and/or reuse in different social, technological and environmental contexts in Egypt. It points out bottlenecks of current wastewater reuse policies and programmes.

Title: Producing energy, depleting water: the energy sector as a driver of seasonal water scarcity in an extractive frontier of the upper Orinoco watershed, Colombia
Abstract: 
 The headwaters of the Orinoco are being transformed into an extractive frontier and experiencing drastic water depletion in the dry season. We use the concept of water metabolism to illustrate the impact of the energy sector in a region typically identified with agriculture. Results indicate that oil palm irrigation for biofuel production together with the disposal of production water from oil extraction account for surface water availability being fully allocated during the dry season. We use ranges in water data and generate scenarios to account for the uncertainty generated by inadequate water-use regulation and limited data availability.

Title: A semi-qualitative approach to the operationalization of the Food–Environment–Energy–Water (FE2W) Nexus concept for infrastructure planning: a case study of the Niger Basin
Abstract: 
 The countries sharing the Niger River suffer from poor access to clean water and energy as well as food insecurity. The Niger River Basin Authority is tasked with advancing progress in all these areas while also reducing environmental degradation. To help the basin authority and its investors prioritize portfolio activities that support multiple securities of interest, we developed a mixed-methods approach that engaged basin countries in qualitatively ranking projects to meet energy, environmental and food security goals, complemented by quantitative modelling for the more complex ranking of water and environmental sustainability goals, necessitated by complex upstream–downstream linkages.

Title: To intervene or not: strategic choices of the central government in China’s sub-national hydropolitics
Abstract: 
 China’s decentralized system explains the reasons for its sub-national inter-jurisdictional collaboration and conflicts in watershed issues. However, few studies have discussed the central government’s role as a strategic actor in sub-national hydropolitics. Existing research ignores the reason for central government intervention in inter-jurisdictional collaboration. This study discusses why central government intervention in sub-national inter-jurisdictional collaboration is a strategic choice performed after repeated trade-offs. The significant impediments to collaboration among jurisdictions and the low propensity for self-enforcement are core conditions for intervention. Central government intervention does not occur when inter-jurisdictional collaboration is easy to achieve, even if direct intervention conditions exist.

Title: Resolving the problems of commensurability in valuing water
Abstract: 
 In this paper a framework is presented for comparing the values derived from the different dimensions of water, without incurring the problems of commensurability. The framework is based on the concept of opportunity cost, which values any good by what one is willing to sacrifice to get it, which is a way of comparing seemingly different things. By simulating changes to a water resource and then measuring the economic, social and environmental impacts in metrics common and accepted by each dimension, a curve of the trade-offs between each metric can be derived. This makes trade-offs intrinsic to decision-making explicit.

Title: Exploring water access in rural Kenya: narratives of social capital, gender inequalities and household water security in Kitui county
Abstract: 
 Access to water and sanitation as a basic human right is still limited within resource-poor rural settings of Africa, including Kitui, Kenya. This is exacerbated by prevailing gender inequalities which can be mediated when communities leverage on social capital. Qualitative methods were used to examine how values embedded in social capital enable women and vulnerable groups to cope with household water insecurity. How communities exploit the bonding and bridging dimensions of social capital to cope with water insecurities has gendered implications. Understanding the role of social capital is important in advancing public policy to reduce gender inequalities in water access.

Title: A comparative analysis of urban and rural household water insecurity experiences during the 2011–17 drought in Ceará, Brazil
Abstract: 
 This article compares urban and rural household water insecurity experiences during the last major drought period (2011–17) in the semi-arid interior region of Ceará, Brazil. Using data from a household survey (N = 322), we determined that households in small urban areas are more and differently water insecure than rural counterparts. Factor analysis and an ordinal logistic regression pinpoint key dimensions, such as water distress, water-sharing and intermittency, contribute differently to water insecurity in rural and urban households. Policy recommendations are made.

Title: Advancing urban water security: The urbanization of water–society relations and entry–points for political engagement
Abstract: 
 We seek to advance a critical and relational concept of urban water security that theorizes urban processes in relation to the hydro-social dynamics that produce experiences of water securities and insecurities at multiple scales. Our intention is to set out an analytical framework that both examines the social relations that underpin water insecurity and goes beyond the urban as merely the context in which water provision and risk take place. We seek to mobilize this concept to envision meaningful water policies and hydro-social practices to enhance social equity and empowerment for urban communities.

Title: Governing water insecurity: navigating indigenous water rights and regulatory politics in settler colonial states
Abstract: 
 Indigenous peoples experience water insecurity disproportionately. There are many parallels between the injustices experienced by racialized and marginalized populations and Indigenous peoples. However, the water insecurity experienced by Indigenous peoples is distinctly shaped by settler colonialism. This article draws on examples from Canada and the United States to illustrate how jurisdictional and regulatory injustices along with the broader political and economic asymmetries advanced by settler colonial States (re-)produce water insecurity for Indigenous peoples. We conclude by engaging with how Indigenous peoples are pushing back against these arrangements using State and non-State strategies by revitalizing Indigenous knowledge and governance systems.

Title: The optics of ‘Day Zero’ and the role of the state in water security for a township in Cape Town (South Africa)
Abstract: 
 Cape Town (South Africa) provides a unique setting to critique the myriad forces producing the varied, contextual conditions of water security. In post-apartheid Cape Town, water is considered a constitutional right and all citizens are guaranteed free minimum access. Despite this progress, water security is often fragmented and personalized. This paper examines the perspectives and experiences of residents in Langa township following the ‘Day Zero’ event of 2018. Embedded in the optics of the crisis we found differentiated dimensions of security more reflective of the apartheid era. Our findings illustrate the need for adaptive water governance to promote water justice.

Title: Anticipating elite capture: the social devaluation of municipal tap water users in the Phoenix metropolitan area
Abstract: 
 Characterizing subcultural models of tap water derived from interviews from 154 respondents in four neighbourhoods in the urban Southwestern United States, we identify sources of public discourses that support and anticipate passive elite capture. In accord with predictions, social devaluation of those who use tap water is situated with residents of a privileged exclusive community sector. This suggests the value of a broader conceptualization and an empirical model of elite capture in water resources: not just as a physical deviation of resources, but also as a discursive devaluation of public resources by specifically elite populations.

Title: Rural water provision at the state-society interface in Latin America
Abstract: 
 Across Latin America, improved water access in rural areas has primarily been secured by residents themselves, bolstered by myriad state and nonstate, domestic and international, entities. In recent decades, the state has lent increasing attention to the rural sector. This article examines recent state interventions towards understanding the evolution of the state’s role in rural water provision vis-à-vis community-based water service providers in Costa Rica, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Recognizing the tensions inherent in a call for state engagement in rural water provision, we propose roles that directly engage the challenges facing community-based water management organizations, emphasizing state engagement with national and transnational water committee governance networks and state-society accountability mechanisms.

Title: Water insecurity and patchwork adaptability in Bangalore’s low-income neighbourhoods
Abstract: 
 This paper explores the ‘patchwork adaptability’ of low-income residents living in south-eastern Bangalore in India to demonstrate the socially embedded ways that city dwellers patch their water supply gaps. Drawing upon site visits and semi-structured interviews in three neighbourhood enclaves, the discussion highlights how residents cope with difficult and water-insecure contexts despite the municipality’s resource governance failures. While we encourage appreciation of the remarkable resilience that low-income populations in Bangalore exhibit, the evidence lays bare the need for more government support to help low-income residents navigate water insecurity in ways that require less time-intensive labour and social networking.

Title: Persisting narratives undermine potential water scarcity solutions for informal areas of Mexico City: the case of two settlements in Xochimilco
Abstract: 
 In Global South megacities, hazards related to climate change – such as water scarcity – are exacerbated by informal urban development. Limited access to public services, particularly those such as water which are considered human rights, require alternative solutions, each with its own trade-offs and costs. Cities’ decisions are often guided by socially constructed narratives.  This research explores three existing narratives on promoting water scarcity solutions in two informal communities of the Xochimilco municipality in Mexico City: (1) ‘formalizing informality’ (e.g., promoting grey infrastructure development); (2) ‘enhancing informality’ (e.g., improving the current system of delivery by water trucks); and (3) greening informality (e.g., capturing rainwater).

Title: Water security in two megacities: observations on public actions during 2020 in São Paulo and London
Abstract: 
 This paper discusses water security and wellbeing within a public health perspective and focuses on urban areas with high population density. It analyses access to safe water and the multiple challenges to water security in two megacities: São Paulo and London, comparing differences and similarities. It illustrates how water security and health are related to Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG6): universal and equitable access to safe drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene, and SDG3: healthy lives and well-being for all, focusing on the problem exacerbated by the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, during 2020.

Title: Autogestión and water sharing networks in Puerto Rico after Hurricane María
Abstract: 
 Puerto Rico’s residents were left without water services for up to nine months in the wake of hurricanes Irma and María (2017). Further, it was clear that there were no viable plans for addressing water provision gaps in anticipation of future hazards. In response, Puerto Ricans initiated autogestión, a strategy to secure survival through self-provisioning. Utilizing mixed methods, we reveal two different emergent forms of autogestión water self-provision in three differently serviced Puerto Rican communities. These provide an informed reflection on the trade-offs and pitfalls of reliance on autogestión for water security in the wake of disaster.

Title: Mobilization of bias: learning from drought and flood crises in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Jakarta
Abstract: 
 This article examines water crises in three megacities (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Jakarta) in the Global South. While crises can delegitimize the dominant water policy and lead to policy change, this does not necessarily come about in all cases. Drawing data from key informant interviews, newspaper articles and policy documents, and using Steven Lukes’ three faces of power framework, we observe how crisis framing has reinforced large infrastructures for water supply and flood protection. In the three case studies, powerful actors combined the three faces of power to shape public opinion in pursuit of their own agendas.

Title: The future of piped water
Abstract: 
 While the past decades have seen substantial gains in access to safe drinking water around the world, the challenge over the next 50 years will be to maintain and expand these gains. Ageing infrastructure, deferred maintenance and financial woes, combined with shifting demands and climate change, threaten the functioning and long-term sustainability of water systems. This article examines three facets of piped water supply – infrastructure, management and financing – assessing the stressors, drivers of change and paradigm shifts affecting each. The review sheds light on the future of piped water, the successes that may be found and the remaining gaps to be addressed.

Title: The water–man eristic dialectics for sustainable hydro-governance
Abstract: 
 Eristic and dialectics are used in their original meaning in Greek to describe conflicting relations between man and water (eristic) and their logical reconciliation (dialectics). A historic peregrination shows a dysfunctional relationship between humans and water. It became human-dominated, creating huge externalities in the state-of-the-art integrated water resources management (IWRM) model as well. The eristic–dialectical symbiosis of humans with water unifies harmoniously their contradictory relationship of conflict and cooperation. It has been used to develop a new policy model of water resources management that is illustrated here with two real case studies and can lead to a sustainable hydro-governance.

Title: Water governance indicators in theory and practice: applying the OECD’s water governance indicators in the North American Great Lakes region
Abstract: 
 In the past decade there has been growth in the use of water governance indicators to assess and deepen our understanding of water policy. This article presents research that applies the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) water governance indicators at the transboundary scale in the North American Great Lakes region. Findings reveal the OECD’s water governance indicators provide some diagnostic value, however there are some important limitations when adapting and applying the indicators at the transboundary scale. The article concludes with insights and outlines challenges of using water governance indicators in research and practice while at the same time embracing complexity in water governance.

Title: A critical review of the transboundary aquifers in South-Eastern Europe and new insights from the EU’s water framework directive implementation process
Abstract: 
 The object of the research is an advanced review and comparative analysis of the last two decades’ main international programmes and initiatives on the management of Transboundary Aquifers in South-Eastern Europe. The aquifers’ delineation and occurrence, identified pressures, and water quality and use are compared with those derived by the EU’s Water Framework Directive implementation process. The final outputs reveal a solid conceptual follow-up of the programmes and initiatives with a gradual enrichment of information related to the status of transboundary aquifers over the years. Groundwater bodies’ data analysis validates the initial outputs and provides enhanced information at finer scales.

Title: Binational reflections on pathways to groundwater security in the Mexico–United States borderlands
Abstract: 
 Shared groundwater resources between Mexico and the United States are facing unprecedented stressors. We reflect on how to improve water security for groundwater systems in the border region. Our reflection begins with the state of groundwater knowledge, and the challenges groundwater resources face from a physical, societal and institutional perspective. We conclude that the extent of ongoing cooperation frameworks, joint and remaining research efforts, from which alternative strategies can emerge, still need to be developed. The way forward offers a variety of cooperation models as the future offers rather complex, shared and multidisciplinary water challenges to the Mexico–US borderlands.

Title: Water resource prospects for the next 50 years on the water planet: personal perspectives on a shared history from Earth Day, the Fourth Industrial Revolution and One Health to the futures of alternative energy, bioconvergence and quantum computing
Abstract: 
 The history and the future of water resource management as well as the endeavours that it influences are inextricably woven into the fabric of the past, current and future states of all life on our watery planet. From the first Earth Day in 1970 and the founding of the International Water Resources Association (IWRA) in 1971 to the development of modern biotechnology applications and alternative energy sources across subsequent decades, this paper reflects on these and other historical underpinnings of how we manage the use of our essential water resources now and might hope to in the future.

Title: Changing the development paradigm in African agricultural water management to resolve water and food challenges
Abstract: 
 Meeting growing demand for water and food in Africa, and other parts of the Global South, presents a significant and critical challenge over the next 50 years. This paper draws on an ongoing project in Africa to outline the research-for-development work that is urgently required to facilitate a paradigm shift in agricultural water management. Such work should lead to increased productivity and profitability of agricultural water use to allow agriculture to release some water to meet the growing needs of other sectors, while still meeting food security needs and contributing to a prosperous rural population.

Title: Learning from the past to build the future governance of groundwater use in agriculture
Abstract: 
 The use of groundwater is increasing worldwide, particularly in agriculture. This leads to pumping races (from which the poorest farmers are often excluded), environmental disasters and the degradation of groundwater quality. Based on discussions between scientists and operational experts in two workshops held in 2018 and 2020, this paper, after taking stock of the dynamics and motivations of groundwater use in agriculture, reviews the solutions most commonly proposed, in particular by public authorities, to regulate the access to and use of this resource and to limit its over-exploitation. These (often optimistic) solutions generally combine regulatory or economic instruments, or indirect measures linking water to other issues, and mechanisms based on the participation of all users. However, they rarely question the intensive agricultural systems driving groundwater demand and fail to recognize the multifunctional nature of groundwater. To overcome these hurdles, we draw up possible ways forward for policymakers and resource users to develop negotiated solutions.

Title: Urban potable reuse: contrasting perspectives of water industry professionals and elected politicians in Sydney, Australia
Abstract: 
 Through interviews of 20 sitting politicians and water practitioners in New South Wales, Australia, this article explores the underlying perceptions of the viability of potable water reuse for Sydney in decision-making practices to explore how politics and water management expertise can come into conflict. In particular, politicians’ stances on the issue of water reuse are affected by the wider politicized but unrelated issue of climate change. Three key themes emerged as barriers to the implementation of water reuse schemes: existing water governance arrangements, limited community support and the perceived lack of a water crisis.

Title: Integrating spatial and social characteristics in the DPSIR framework for the sustainable management of river basins: case study of the Katari River Basin, Bolivia
Abstract: 
 The drivers–pressures–state–impact–responses (DPSIR) framework has been used widely to support environmental policy developments. However, we argue that DPSIR tends to oversimplify the complexity behind socio-ecological systems. Based on the Katari River Basin in Bolivia, we explore how the incorporation of spatial and social considerations may enhance DPSIR applications. The results reveal a spatial mismatch between driving forces/pressures and policy responses, and severe impacts on the vulnerable communities. Moreover, we also show that local levels tend to be neglected. The study concludes that integrating spatial and social characteristics in the DPSIR may result in valuable implications for river basin management practitioners.

Title: The Information Strategy Model: a framework for developing a monitoring strategy for national policy making and SDG6 reporting
Abstract: 
 Representatives from 14 countries worldwide worked together on improving their monitoring and ultimately their water management to reach the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 goals by 2030, thereby testing the Information Strategy Model (ISM). This model is developed to support identifying the need for information for water management. In a workshop setting, participants were instructed and subsequently developed the ISM for their own situation. The results show that the ISM fulfils its task of structuring the development and improvement of a monitoring network, but can be enhanced by adding detailed information for specific elements and needs explanation and assistance to be of use.

Title: Layers of regulation in transboundary water governance: exploring the role of third states in the Lancang–Mekong
Abstract: 
 The non-navigational uses of transboundary freshwaters are regulated by global frameworks, general and regional customary international law, regional treaty-based frameworks and/or watercourse-specific agreements. These layers of regulation intersect and overlap, and only bind those states that have chosen to become parties to the relevant legal agreements. This paper first provides a theoretical tour d’horizon of this legal problématique, identifying a series of problems and possible solutions based on the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties. The practical consequences of this problématique will then be explored in the context of the Lancang–Mekong River, and the interaction between the various legal frameworks at play.

Title: Performance analysis of Chilean water companies after the privatization of the industry: the influence of ownership
Abstract: 
 This study examines the efficiency and productivity of the Chilean water and sewerage industry over the period 2010–2017 using a stochastic cost frontier model. This methodological approach allowed us to evaluate the impact of water companies´ ownership on their productivity. This is very relevant for the Chilean water and sewerage industry which involves a public, full private and concessionary water companies. The results evidenced that the Chilean water and sewerage industry improved its productivity across years. However, the increase in the productivity of full private and concessionary water companies was larger than the one experienced by the public water company.

Title: Thinking beyond domestic water supply: approaches to advance multiple-use water systems (MUS) in the rural hills of Nepal
Abstract: 
 The development of multiple-use water systems (MUS) in Nepal has mostly relied on international/non-governmental organizations. Despite the growing interest in MUS within the country, the approach has not yet received space in government policy and programmes, limiting its wider implementation. We seek to understand both the challenges to, and strategies for, scaling-up MUS, especially with regard to how MUS could be incorporated into Nepali institutional and policy processes arising from the adoption of a three-tier (federal, state and local) federal governance system. Our recommendations are informed by a study of MUS in the middle hills of Nepal.

Title: Institutions for reoperating reservoirs in semi-arid regions facing climate change and competing societal water demands: insights from Colorado
Abstract: 
 Reservoir reoperation is analysed from the perspective of institutions (rules) governing water resources. A new definition is provided, going beyond ‘modifying dam operations’ found in the literature to instead focus on changes to the allocation of water stored and released from a reservoir. Through interviews and archival research, we assess 32 large reservoirs in the US state of Colorado. Using tools from institutional analysis, we find that reoperation is often the result of institutional ‘crafting’ by reservoir managers and water users, that property rights strongly influence outcomes, and that well-designed policy can promote water sharing in otherwise rigid institutional settings.

Title: Mismatches between policy planning and implementation on the actively living with flood approach in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta
Abstract: 
 Based on a qualitative case study in An Giang province, Vietnam, we mapped the understanding of the ‘Living with Floods’ (LWF) concept and the implementation of three projects to explain the effectiveness of water governance in Vietnam. We have demonstrated how perceptions on the LWF concept differ per government level and the limits of water governance effectiveness. Diverging perceptions undermine the effectiveness of water governance. A framework and a list of indicators are proposed to measure the effectiveness of floodwater governance. Integrating local and social aspects in LWF policies and vertical coordination may help align short-term benefits with long-term adaptation.

Title: Evaluating the effectiveness of land and water integrative practices for achieving water sustainability within the Colorado River Basin: perceptions and indicators
Abstract: 
 Principle 12 of the OECD Principles on Water Governance calls for the evaluation of sustainable water policies, which to be effective must be salient, credible and legitimate. Using a 2021 survey of land and water managers within the Colorado River Basin, we examine the salience, credibility and legitimacy of two approaches to evaluate policies that integrate water and land management: using practitioners’ perceptions of policies effectiveness to achieve water sustainability goals, and the importance of indicators to assess the water sustainability of a community. Results show perceptions of policy effectiveness and indicator importance vary with the context of organization and place.

Title: Patterns in transboundary aquifer governance: comparative analysis of eight case studies from the perspective of efficacy
Abstract: 
 We performed a comparative analysis of eight case studies worldwide from the perspective of transboundary aquifer governance efficacy. First, we mapped variation in institutional design, applying institutional design criteria in four dimensions linked to The OECD Principles on Water Governance. We then identified explanatory factors: (1) physical variables, including aquifer size and hydrogeological characteristics; (2) watershed variables, including groundwater exploitation capacity and water transfer infrastructure; and (3) political factors, including international donor support. We found that transboundary aquifer governance efficacy is closely linked to problem structure and less attributable to institutional design in the presence of specific contextual variables.

Title: Institutional challenges to efficient governance: water, sanitation and wastewater in Egypt
Abstract: 
 Recent contributions to network infrastructures pay increasing attention to the key role of ‘intermediate’ or ‘meso-institutions’ linking the level at which rules and norms are established and the level at which operators and users proceed. Building on these contributions, this article examines the institutional setting that underlies water, sanitation and wastewater services in Egypt. Referring to the OECD Principles on Water Governance of 2015 as a benchmark, it shows the impact on governance of biases and obstacles created by intricacies in roles and responsibilities spread over different meso-institutions. The analysis throws light on how inadequate institutional design might derail well-intentioned policies.

Title: France’s performance vis-a-vis the 12 OECD Principles on Water Governance
Abstract: 
 This paper shows that the evolution of French water governance since the 1960s is globally consistent with the OECD Principles on Water Governance. It covers simultaneously what concerns resources, services and eventually policies that bridge both types, per groups of governance principles. The paper illustrates that, beyond this overall positive assessment, a lot of shortcomings and weaknesses and therefore of potential improvements can be identified. It proposes a preliminary reflection about the impact of governance changes and about indicators needed to measure these impacts.

Title: Transparency, regional diversity, and capacity building: cornerstones for trust and engagement in good water governance
Abstract: 
 This article discusses how coherent policy supports ongoing engagement and enables improvements in water governance over time. Our analysis departs from the conclusions and recommendations of a previous published work, OECD Principles on Water Governance in Practice – An Assessment of Existing Frameworks in Europe, Asia-Pacific, Africa, and South America. We reference this analysis against three cases and policy practices in Southern Europe, Latin America and Asia-Pacific. We use the regional differences and similarities to discuss how the dimension of ‘trust and engagement’ can explain the major impediments or achievements towards more effective implementation of ‘good’ water governance in practice.

Title: Governance failures and knowledge asymmetries in the state river basin committees and their impacts on water resource management in Brazil
Abstract: 
 This study reports the results of a nationwide survey of how representatives of the state river basin committees in Brazil perceive their involvement in the decision-making process. The survey revealed failures in governance caused by a lack of understanding of the water management system, limited technical knowledge and a deficit of accountability by committee members. These flaws weaken the exchange of ideas and the fair balance of members’ participation, whilst reflecting particularistic interests of certain groups or individuals in decision-making. Unless these problems are addressed, the OECD Principles on Water Governance cannot be implemented in Brazil’s river basins.

Title: Tracking water governance impacts: an example from the Kenyan water sector
Abstract: 
 In 2015, the Kenyan Water Services Regulatory Board (WASREB) introduced a corporate governance indicator for the Kenyan water sector to measure the extent to which water service providers contribute to enhanced sector performance and the realization of the human right to safe drinking water and sanitation. An assessment shows that a utility that performs well on governance is very likely to perform well on the nine key performance indicators. Overall, the governance indicator serves to inform the public and guide utilities to improve their governance. It also provides guidance to partners and development institutions which may support the utilities in the future.

Title: The effect of policy incoherence on the emergence of groundwater-related subsidence phenomena: a case study from Iran
Abstract: 
 Land subsidence due to overexploitation of aquifers is often attributed to incoherent public policies. Taking the case of the Mahyar valley in Iran as an example, and based on a mixed-method research design, this study analyses the effects of policy incoherence on well use for agricultural irrigation and the resulting groundwater levels. Results show how an accumulation of policy incoherence over time results in an increased construction of wells, ultimately leading to a groundwater table drawdown, with a significant decrease of 7.61 m in the last 16 years.

Title: Assessment of the failure to implement a much-needed rural water and sanitation project in Brazil
Abstract: 
 The National Rural Water and Sanitation Project was implemented in Brazil in the 1980s. It did not succeed because it did not become an institutionalized public policy that reached the entire national territory, and it was discontinued a few years later. This article assesses the factors explaining this failure using the 5C Protocol. The results show that the flaws in the implementation impaired the sustainability of the established systems. Political reasons compromised the principles idealized during the conception of the project. Also, technical and institutional limitations constrained the implementation of the recommended innovations, such as social participation, and adaptive technologies.

Title: Organizing support through interactive governance within flood risk management
Abstract: 
 Flood risk management nowadays affects landowners behind dikes, broadening the group of stakeholders. Interactive governance provides an approach to negotiate and balance the diverging interests of stakeholders involved. One of the benefits of interactive governance is creating satisfaction through involvement, making stakeholders less prone to taking legal action against implementation. This paper tests this assumption through standardized quantitative longitudinal research, demonstrating a statistically positive correlation between interactive governance and stakeholder satisfaction.

Title: Stalemate of the hydrological master variable? The challenge of implementing environmental flows in the Orange–Senqu basin
Abstract: 
 In the face of declining rivers globally, the flow regime as the key hydrological determinant for healthy freshwater ecosystems is receiving unprecedented attention. This study investigates the challenge of implementing environmental flows in the Orange–Senqu basin in Southern Africa by assessing progress and its key factors during 1998 and 2013. Based on 22 interviews, the study shows that despite an advanced understanding of e-flows and its requirements, there have been effective implementation actions in only a few river systems to give effect to these e-flow requirements. Ineffective implementing institutions and a challenging basin context are more responsible than largely sufficient policies and legislation.

Title: The evolution of markets for water pollution allowances in China: a case study of Jiaxing
Abstract: 
 The central question this paper asks is: How can we understand the evolution of markets for water pollution allowances? To answer, we have conducted an in-depth study of the development of water pollution allowance markets in Jiaxing, China, which was one of the first cities to experiment with these markets. We have completed a longitudinal analysis and conclude that market design is a continual learning process, with adjustments to solve issues and to respond to external changes.

Title: Advances in monitoring transboundary water cooperation? Reflecting on the development and implementation of SDG indicator 6.5.2
Abstract: 
 The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicator framework marks the first time that a specific indicator on transboundary water cooperation (indicator 6.5.2) has been adopted within an inter-governmental process. Achieving the political and technical support for this was not easy. However, through widespread consultation, and by building upon existing practice relating to water cooperation, the indicator was ultimately approved. The 2017 and 2020 reporting exercises demonstrated the robustness and value of the indicator. Having operational arrangements in place is critical to ensuring that transboundary waters are managed in an equitable and sustainable manner. SDG indicator 6.5.2 offers great potential in supporting that effort.

Title: Beyond barriers: the fluid roles young people adopt in water conflict and cooperation
Abstract: 
 Most people on this planet are under the age of 35. They have been raising their voices in discussions on climate change in recent years, while this is well documented, their roles in water cooperation are not. Drawing on examples from desk research, an online survey, and action research alongside young water leaders, this article seeks to map out various ways young people engage in water conflict and cooperation. This paper contributes to literature on water leadership by recognizing the fluid and adaptive roles of young people in water conflict and cooperation.

Title: Supply chain water-reporting practices in the food, beverage and tobacco sector: a comparative study
Abstract: 
 Companies are responsible for reporting not only their own water practices but also those of their suppliers. An evaluation of the supply chain water information in the sustainability and integrated reports of 49 food, beverage and tobacco firms listed on the JSE (South Africa), ASX (Australia) and Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) exchanges, respectively, was conducted. It was found that the companies fall short in their disclosure of consumption of water-related supply chain information. The firms listed on the DJSI and JSE outperformed the Australian companies. This paper presents and applies a novel water disclosure index of supply chain information.

Title: A multifaceted quantitative index for sustainability assessment of groundwater management: application for aquifers around Iran
Abstract: 
 This study developed a groundwater sustainable management index including components of environmental, social, economic and institutional responsibility. Four significant indicators: integrated groundwater footprint, population density, percentage of groundwater used for agricultural and industrial sectors, and density of observation wells were adopted and executed for 443 of Iran’s aquifers. The results indicated that the groundwater sustainable management for 32% of Iran’s aquifers is poor–very poor, and this index is more sensitive to economic and social indicators. Finally, an inverse correlation was observed between the groundwater sustainable management index values and the coefficient of variation of normalized difference vegetation index (R2 = −0.437).

Title: Promoting water conservation habits in shower use: review of water utility websites in OECD cities
Abstract: 
 Personal hygiene accounts for 30–45% of water use in households in Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries, and of this water, the greatest proportion is used for showering. More efficient showers can be achieved by using efficient technologies – mainly efficient showerheads – as well as through the adoption of sustainable habits, such as reducing shower frequency and duration. A review of the websites of water utilities in cities of OECD countries shows little effort to promote water-saving shower habits. Addressing this shortcoming would improve the sustainability of water use, compared with the current focus on efficient technologies.

Title: Addressing water security through catchment water stewardship partnerships: experiences from the Pangani Basin, Tanzania
Abstract: 
 The rolling out of integrated water resources management (IWRM) in the Pangani Basin, Tanzania, faces several implementation and participation challenges. Building on experiences from GIZ–NatuReS stewardship partnerships, we argue that meaningfully engaging stakeholders and involving the private sector can help overcome these challenges and improve water security. We analyse data collected through interviews with partners and beneficiaries, and data stemming from partnership documents. Our analyses show that stakeholders are in support of creating an enabling environment based on IWRM by including tangible, results-based private–public–civil society partnerships which offer alternative and innovative solutions to address risks facing people, economies and ecosystems.

Title: Mixing waters: stakeholder influence in transboundary water conflict and cooperation
Abstract: 
 Understanding the factors that contribute to transboundary water conflict and cooperation is critical to improve governance and protect water resources. State interactions are shaped by multiple pressures and multi-scalar actors. This research assesses how local stakeholders influence the state through an analysis of power, water quality-related vulnerability and risk. Based on the findings, local stakeholders directly and indirectly support high-intensity cooperation over transboundary lakes and can foster low-intensity conflict to enable a greater representation of needs. Local actors also mutually influence state and international processes causing a multi-scalar impact and response to the states’ transboundary water quality interactions.

Title: Assessing the soundness of water governance: lessons learned from applying the 10 Building Blocks Approach
Abstract: 
 Sound governance is needed to address water issues, but soundness is a contested concept that should be further specified in societal debates. These debates can benefit from interdisciplinary knowledge. The 10 Building Blocks Approach, a tool developed to generate such knowledge, has been widely applied in research and teaching. In this paper, we draw on the literature and reflect on the experiences of using this approach by elucidating the strengths and weaknesses identified during its applications. Based on our reflections, we propose a revised version of the approach.

Title: Draft legal framework for shared water resources in the Arab World: is it really needed?
Abstract: 
 Attempts to establish a regional water convention covering shared water resources in the Arab world have been ongoing for more than a decade. During this time, a Draft Arab Water Convention has been proposed, and the content of this has been subject to a debate that did not gain much attention at the international level. This article seeks to examine this topic to determine whether such an instrument is really needed in the Arab world. The article highlights the advantages and disadvantages of establishing such a convention, on the basis of which specific recommendations are made.

Title: Groundwater governance through institutional bricolage? Participation in Morocco’s Chtouka aquifer contract
Abstract: 
 Controlling groundwater use has become one of the most urgent and difficult issues in common-pool resource governance. This article analyses an aquifer contract in Morocco as an innovative, participatory approach to the problem. Cleaver’s concept of institutional bricolage allows us to understand how its implementation affected and interacted with existing social institutional arrangements for water use. The findings confirm that an awareness of insufficient rules is a precondition for new governance arrangements. They reveal how power relations and social institutions influenced the implementation of the aquifer contract. Finally, they show how social and cultural affiliations shape the implementation.

Title: Public banks and the remunicipalization of water services in Paris
Abstract: 
 We investigate the role of public banks in the remunicipalization process in Paris, France, in addressing the financial needs of the new public municipal water company, Eau de Paris (EDP). We find that EDP has, until recently, eschewed reliance on debt financing, which explains the peripheral role of public banks in the transition from private to public. We emphasize that the financial ecosystem for water utilities established by the water basin agencies in France accounts for a reduced need to borrow from credit institutions, but that declining water consumption and climate change are making debt financing necessary.

Title: Untapping the sustainable water bank’s public financing for Dutch drinking water companies
Abstract: 
 The Dutch Water Bank (NWB), which was created in the 1950s, still provides long-term, low-cost, low-risk patient and appropriate financing to public entities. It is a model that has worked, but not without room for improvement. The NWB has an opportunity to untap its support of Dutch drinking water companies’ sustainability transitions. To do so, it needs to embrace its ‘publicness’: leveraging its position within the Dutch public sector to catalyse water investments in the public interest. The NWB offers important lessons for global debates on public banks and sustainable transitions.

Title: Squeezed by austerity and pressured to recover costs: Portugal’s municipal water operators in need of public bank finance
Abstract: 
 This article maps the relationship between public banks and municipal water operators in Portugal. Multilateral public banks play a central role in financing the sector. However, access to public banking finance plays out unevenly across Portugal’s heterogenous water landscape. While the state-owned bulk system appears to face no shortage of finance, there is evidence of a financing crisis at the municipal level, where austerity and pressures to recover costs through tariffs serve as obstacles to bank borrowing. With a new public financial institution in the making, the article argues that new public–public financing relationships should be explored.

Title: The European Investment Bank and its role in financing public water
Abstract: 
 The European Investment Bank (EIB) emerged as the world’s largest multilateral public development bank from the 1990s. We explore the logic of EIB lending to the water sector in general, and to public water in particular. Water lending from the EIB’s establishment until 1990 reflected its core mandates, then, from 1991 to 2021, slippage occurred, as a process of levelling up meant the EIB distributed water lending more evenly among member countries. We find EIB water lending went to both public and private water, illustrating this using the case of the UK, the leading recipient of lending throughout the period.

Title: Boldly boring: public banks and public water in the Nordic region
Abstract: 
 Public banks in Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark have played a critical role in financing the costs of public water services in the Nordic region for over a century. A pooled banking model, collectively owned and operated by municipal and/or national governments, has allowed public water operators to obtain financing at the lowest possible rates, improving services and protecting their public status. It is not without its challenges, including threats of privatization and commercialization of public water operators and public banks, but this Nordic model has much to offer global debates about public financing of public water services.

Title: ‘No one can compete since no one dares to lend more cheaply!’: Turkey’s Ilbank and public water finance
Abstract: 
 As a midsized public development bank in Turkey, Ilbank is crucial in financing water provision. It provides cheaper loans to municipalities and serves as an intermediary for accessing international funds. Being owned by municipalities and designed to serve them, Ilbank is unique in Turkey’s banking sector in terms of financing water provision. However, the potential of Ilbank to expand its role is limited due to recent revisions of its mandate, the attempts to divert its resources and its undemocratic structure. A reformed and democratized Ilbank could be a crucial player in building an integrated water and sanitation system management for Turkey.

Title: Public banks, public water: exploring the links in Europe
Abstract: 
 Public banks have played an important role in financing public water and sanitation services in Europe for over a century, but these activities have been largely ignored in the academic literature. This special issue is an initial corrective to this research gap, providing conceptual insights and empirical information on eight countries and regions in Europe, covering a wide range of public banks working with public water operators. This introductory article provides background rationale for the research, outlines our methodologies, frames the theoretical potentials of public banks in the water sector, highlights key findings and points to future possible research directions.

Title: Between development and banking: the KfW Development Bank in Latin America’s water sector
Abstract: 
 This paper sheds light on the question to what extent public development banks can, and do, contribute to achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 on water and sanitation under the current political economic conditions, drawing on the case of the German KfW Development Bank and its activities in Latin America. It concludes that bankable, large water supply and sanitation services (WSS) infrastructure projects based on cost-recovery models can hardly deliver the WSS systems needed in Latin America in a sustainable manner. Achieving SDG 6 requires long-term subsidies for public water utilities and addressing the political conditions of WSS governance on the ground.

Title: Public water without (public) financial mediation? Remunicipalizing water in Valladolid, Spain
Abstract: 
 We discuss the water remunicipalization process in the city of Valladolid (Spain), focusing specifically on its public financing model. Valladolid water remunicipalization has been a politically driven process, but implemented and managed in a technical way, through a public 100% municipality-owned company. As we show, it does not require the additional participation of financial intermediaries, public or private. The Valladolid remunicipalization process has been largely successful, with efficient financial and technical management, including some equity and environmental considerations, although it is not free from financial challenges that could cause it to totter in the future.

Title: Egypt’s water balancing act
Abstract: 
 Egypt’s 2007 National Water Resources Plan projected that water supply and demand would still be in balance by 2017. However, in 2010, the National Water Resources Plan – Coordination Project found that agricultural demands were far higher than previously estimated and demand already exceed the officially available resources. The first part of this paper deals with the estimation of the Nile water balance in 2010; the second discusses measures, including actions in the wider economy, that would allow Egypt to manage the situation and cohabit with its co-riparians as they implement their own plans to use Nile waters.

Title: Contested baselines and transboundary water resources management, with illustrations from the Nile
Abstract: 
 The effect of a policy intervention is estimated as the difference between a state of the world without the intervention – the dynamic baseline – and with the intervention. Negotiations on managing transboundary water resources confront three kinds of problems in specifying the dynamic baseline: unexamined baselines, uncertain baselines and contested baselines. This paper focuses on contested baselines. Controversy may arise from different ethical or political assessments of the appropriate choice of the state of the world without the policy intervention. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on the Nile highlights the importance of understanding contested baselines involving transboundary water resources.

Title: Locating the channel and other tales from the river bank: constants and change in river boundary delimitation
Abstract: 
 Nowhere is the contrast between the top-down process of drawing a boundary and the ground-up reality of living with it so obvious as in delimitations along rivers – live features not just physically but also, potentially, navigable arteries. Illustrations are drawn from the chequered history of two famous colonial river boundaries along the Shatt al-Arab and Jordan rivers; and in the invocation of history in legal settlements of the status of Kasikili/Sedudu Island in the Caprivi Strip (1995–99) and the Abyei region on the Bahr al Arab between Sudan and South Sudan (2008–09).

Title: Power plus: Tony Allan’s contributions to understanding transboundary water arrangements
Abstract: 
 We trace the development of a theory and analytical frames within international political economy that originated from Tony Allan’s mainstreaming of power as a determining factor in the control of transboundary flows. These include the Framework of Hydro-Hegemony, coexisting conflict and cooperation and Transboundary Water Interaction Analysis, counter-hegemony and virtual water rivers. These contributions are exemplified briefly through cases from around the globe and in particular the Nile. To ensure that this aspect of Tony’s legacy lives on, we propose a research agenda that includes the analysis of power interactions at substate levels between central governments and non-state actors.

Title: Water and complex problemsheds in Karamoja, Uganda
Abstract: 
 A complex political economy revolves around shared land and water use between Kenyan Turkana and Ugandan Karamojong pastoralists. In response to growing pressure on resources, donors and the Ugandan government are investing in new surface water sources. However, power and political economy issues embedded within societal relationships are rarely factored into water infrastructure development. Drawing on Tony Allan’s teaching, we examine studies of two dams recently constructed in Karamoja and argue that a wider view encompassing power and politics within the Karamoja–Turkana Complex would help ensure more sustainable and effective future water supply development. Allan’s idea that catchments are part of much wider social, political economic and integrated livelihood systems, or problemsheds, is a key concept. Here we argue that adopting this concept in a complex of pastoral systems can improve future water resources planning and intervention in Karamoja, Uganda and similar contexts.

Title: Scalable Water Balances from Earth Observations (SWEO): results from 50 years of remote sensing in hydrology
Abstract: 
 Strategic planning of water management at the river-basin scale requires (1) measurement and accounting of individual hydrological processes, (2) quantification of water resources, and (3) their optimal allocation. Scalable Water Balances from Earth Observations (SWEO) is an open-access parameterization enabling automated reporting of water footprints and Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators. We present its systematic arrangement and input datasets, and demonstrate its accuracy by independent riverflow measurements. We also review some achievements in remote sensing for hydrology during the last 50 years in quantifying hydrological and water management processes, flows, fluxes and changes in storage from various independent sources; and append mathematical formulations.

Title: The problem with water footprints outside of irrigated drylands
Abstract: 
 Virtual water – embedded in an agricultural commodity by virtue of evapotranspiration during crop growth – is effectively consumed by the purchaser. In water-poor economies, it breaks their dependence on local water-for-food and acts as a political stabilizer. Tony Allan’s concept remains highly relevant in the irrigated drylands for which it was developed, but calculating water footprints for agriculture elsewhere should take account of the non-agricultural counterfactual – which may consume more water than the agriculture that replaces it. Otherwise, use of water footprinting, for example, in trade policy, will be misleading and counterproductive.

Title: When the virtual water runs out: local and global responses to addressing unsustainable groundwater consumption
Abstract: 
 Given the growing importance of groundwater in irrigated crop production, policies aimed at restricting groundwater use create fears of intensified food insecurity. Yet, a comprehensive quantitative analysis is required to evaluate the impacts of groundwater sustainability restrictions on food system. Using a multi-scale multi-system framework integrating economic and biophysical determinants of sustainability, we find that the local economic impacts of a groundwater sustainability policy are often substantial. However, due to market-mediated responses, including surface water substitution, expansion of rainfed production, relocation and virtual trade in blue water, the final impact on global food prices and production is surprisingly modest.

Title: The role of virtual-water decoupling in achieving food–water security: lessons from Egypt, 1962–2013
Abstract: 
 Since the 1970s, many economies increasingly rely on ‘importing’ water embedded in food imports, a process referred to here as virtual-water ‘imports’. In water-scarce countries, virtual-water ‘imports’ are used to protect the economy’s own water which would otherwise be consumed in food production to meet the growing population and economy food needs, or to support the population’s food needs beyond that sustainable by internal water resources. This process is referred to here as virtual-water decoupling. This paper examines the role of virtual-water decoupling to achieve a version of food–water security for water-scarce societies, with a particular focus on Egyptian virtual-water decoupling policy during the period 1962–2013.

Title: Virtual water, international relations and the new geopolitics of food
Abstract: 
 Food security and virtual water considerations interact in a corporatized third food regime, particularly in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), the world’s largest grain importing region. Globalization has created asymmetric trade interdependence that can be weaponized by states that control global economic hubs, yet countries in the Global South have actively exploited the rivalries of big powers, temporarily capturing chokepoints and entering new alignments. The virtual water paradigm that Tony Allan first coined can be applied creatively to international relations that are increasingly characterized by ‘weaponized interdependence’.

Title: Chronic crisis: 30 years on from the Dublin Principles and still no market to value water
Abstract: 
 Solving the global water crisis requires water to be economically mobile. Well-regulated water markets that can allocate scarce water resources to their best economic, social and environmental uses will require rigorous water accounting; access to the resource by legal, transparent and enforced permits; and a market where permitted water can be sold by users that have more than enough to other potential users that can make better use of it. This will involve exclusion of the weaponization of water for the exercise of power and dismantling market distortions such as agricultural subsidies that are rarely aimed at better water management.

Title: Irrigated agriculture: more than ‘big water’ and ‘accountants will [not] save the world’
Abstract: 
 Two of Tony Allan’s phrases – big water and accountants will save the world – invite me to argue that irrigation is poorly served when its hydrology is seen solely as big or via accounts. While big applies because irrigated areas deplete considerable volumes of water, irrigation systems contain many more water relations, behaviours and puzzles. In this problematic, environmental, social and governance (ESG) and water accountants and accounts will become a dominant force. This is worrying for the degree to which individual irrigation systems are rendered into catchment-level accounting abstractions, removing us from a more vital, multidisciplinary, cross-scale and action-oriented approach.

Title: ‘We were displaced several times since 1956’: the Tonga– Goba involuntary resettlement experiences at the Kariba Dam
Abstract: 
 This article critically discusses the secondary displacements of the Tonga–Goba people that occurred after their initial resettlement in the late 1950s. It considers the factors that engendered these displacements; as well as the socio–economic effects of these displacements. These factors include the Zimbabwe Liberation War of the 1970s, the independence of 1980, politico-economic crises of the 2000s and human–wildlife conflicts. These multiple displacements negatively impacted the lives and livelihoods of the affected people. These forms of displacements are regarded as long-term impacts of their initial resettlement of the 1950s.

Title: Assessing the capacity gaps of decentralized rural water management: qualitative evidence from Ghana
Abstract: 
 This paper examines the capacity gaps in decentralized rural water management in Ghana across five dimensions: institutional, financial, human resource, technical and social. Using household and informant interviews and focus group discussions, qualitative data from the selected rural communities and water management agencies show that while institutional capacity forms the backbone of effective rural water supply and management, financial capacity is required to implement and sustain the other forms of local capacity. To achieve sustainable rural water services, the study recommends a shift in management approaches that ensures a progressive transfer of water management responsibilities to beneficiary rural communities.

Title: The environment comes later: when and how environmental considerations are included in transboundary water agreements
Abstract: 
 Until recently, most transboundary water agreements largely focused on utilization, frequently leading to environmental impacts. We examine under which circumstances are environmental considerations included in transboundary water agreements, how are they included and whether they address environmental effects of previous agreements. We analyse 75 treaties, many of which occur within (sub)basins with previously established water agreements. Human water stress, upstream large dams, OECD membership and previous water treaties (particularly those concerning utilization) are the most prevalent conditions where environmental degradation is considered. Our results also suggest that aridity incentivizes negotiating relationships to develop, thereby facilitating environmental water cooperation.

Title: The evolution of the modern dam conflict on the Snake River, USA
Abstract: 
 As dams age and values shift, communities face dam removal decisions that involve navigating complex social, economic and ecological interactions. Sometimes, this results in decades-long conflicts, such as that over the removal of the four lower Snake River dams (LSRD) in Washington State, USA – the focus of this study. We apply a broad analytical framework to understand how key factors in this conflict perpetuate it. We find that western science and economic expertise are politicized, and that while venues and geographies for stakeholder engagement are expanding, these shifts are not powerful enough to interrupt the cycle of litigation sustaining the LSRD debate.

Title: Water consumption and economic growth: evidence for the environmental Kuznets curve
Abstract: 
 This research investigates the relationship between economic growth and consumption of fresh water in Iran using the environmental Kuznets hypothesis. In this study we used per-capita water consumption and per-capita gross domestic production of 31 provinces of Iran from 2005 to 2018. The results showed the inverted ‘U’-shaped relationship between water consumption and economic growth and that the environmental Kuznets hypothesis existed between water withdrawal and economic growth in the agricultural and service sectors, and that the water–production relationship in the industrial sector followed an inverted ‘N’-shape. The results can help policymakers with policy implementations related to sectorial water consumption.

Title: The current legal framework for pollution control in the Niger River Basin relative to SDG 6.3
Abstract: 
 Numerous laws and regulations have been adopted by the Niger Basin Authority (NBA) and its member countries against pollution of the Niger River from runoff, waste disposal and sewage discharges. Participating countries also subscribe to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6.3. Yet legal instruments for effluent discharge are not defined for a core set of parameters used to monitor basic ambient water quality for attaining SDG 6.3. We provide recommendations for addressing this problem.

Title: Understanding institutional changes in irrigation management: a comparative case study of two communities in the Venezuelan Andes
Abstract: 
 This paper explores institutional changes in two water users’ associations (WUAs) in the Venezuelan Andes. The methodology is based on ethnographic work. The results show that both WUAs have modified the rule systems in irrigation management to respond to economic, institutional and environmental changes. They have implemented a better organization of water sharing, adopted more efficient irrigation technologies, restored infrastructure and preserved high-altitude wetlands. The comparative approach adopted allowed us to show not only the similar factors that promoted institutional change, such as social capital, but also the differences related to the characteristics of the resource.

Title: Water supply in Covid-19 times: the role of public operators, housing associations and informal providers in Arequipa, Peru
Abstract: 
 We explore responses of water supply providers during the first stage of the Covid-19 pandemic in Arequipa, Peru, contrasting actions by the public water company, dominant in the city core, and by neighbourhood associations, dominant in the unplanned periphery. The water company implemented instalment payments, the suspension of water shutoffs and the distribution of free water giving priority to the core districts. On the periphery, neighbourhood associations continued to depend mostly on water trucks under irregular and expensive service. The pandemic made more evident the fragmented nature of water supply in cities of the Global South such as Arequipa.

Title: Managed aquifer recharge in Mexico: proposals for an improved legal framework and public policies
Abstract: 
 In Mexico, groundwater availability has been decreasing, especially in arid and semiarid regions; this can be addressed by boosting aquifer recharge, known as managed aquifer recharge, with stormwater or treated wastewater. In this paper, we use qualitative approaches to analyse three managed aquifer recharge projects in the country and discuss the related achievements, limitations and lessons learned. We argue that the Law of Nations’ Waters lacks precise rules for water storage and recovery of recharged water, making the planning of significant investments to implement these projects unlikely. We present legal, management and financial proposals to improve the relevant legal water framework.

Title: Stakeholders in Ghana’s water sector development and implications for rural water tariff payment: a review
Abstract: 
 Despite the separation of rural and urban water services under models of service delivery suitable to rural and urban areas in Ghana, there is still evidence of urban water service extensions to some rural communities. Using content analysis of the mainstream literature and documentary report, the study reveals that there are overlapping stakeholder roles as some rural communities are still connected to urban water services, yet not given preferential treatment under water tariff regulation and policy provisions. This leads to water tariff arrears in affected rural areas compared with their urban counterparts.

Title: Economies of water in Delhi: a neo-Polanyian analysis
Abstract: 
 The paper describes the emergence of multiple economies of water in India’s capital Delhi, using a neo-Polanyian approach of instituted economic process. It analyses the systems of provision, distribution, appropriation and consumption of water, and the formation of scales of these economies of water. The paper systematically compares and analyses the spatially divided and partially overlapping economies of water in the planned colonies and slum-designated areas in the city. It describes the dynamics of growth and stagnation of the different economies of water within the waterscape of the capital and its implications for sustainability.

Title: Political ecological perspectives on an indicator-based urban water framework
Abstract: 
 Water security is a key challenge in the 21st century. Consequently, several indicator-based frameworks exist to evaluate this issue along with water management. We use a political ecological perspective to identify if the City Blueprint Approach (CBA) integrates aspects of hydrosociality to assess urban water security. Aiming to critically examine the CBA through the lens of political ecology and different concepts of hydrosociality, we identify three problems – hybridity, spatial scale and power structures – hindering the representation of hydrosocial relations within the CBA. Finally, the benefits of integrating hydrosocial and political ecological conceptualizations into quantitative urban water frameworks are discussed.

Title: Saving water by returning to a constant water supply in Chihuahua
Abstract: 
 A sustainable drinking water system is essential to ensure the availability of water. Efficient management is developed by maintaining a positive and continuous pressure. However, in developing countries, the conception is that a constant water supply is unsustainable and the preferred alternative is to modify to an intermittent water supply. In this paper, a methodology for gradually transforming several sectors to a constant supply to decrease the quantity of water supplied is developed. Network sectorization and pressure management were achieved, indicating that the operation of 19% of the households under this methodology generates 24% of the water-saving of the city.

Title: Water insecurity, water borrowing and psychosocial stress among Daasanach pastoralists in northern Kenya
Abstract: 
 This article quantifies Daasanach water insecurity experiences in northern Kenya, examines how water insecurity is associated with water borrowing and psychosocial stress, and evaluates if water borrowing mitigates the stress from water insecurity. Of 133 households interviewed in seven communities, 94.0% were water insecure and 74.4% borrowed water three or more times in the prior month. Regression analyses demonstrate water-borrowing frequency moderates the relationship between water insecurity and psychosocial stress. Only those who rarely or never borrowed water reported greater stress with higher water insecurity. The coping mechanism of water borrowing may help blunt water insecurity-related stress.

Title: Economic analysis of public investment in alternative agricultural water management schemes: a case study from northern Ghana
Abstract: 
 This study assesses the institutions and economics of public investments in three agricultural water management infrastructure and technologies: rehabilitation of small reservoirs, fuel-powered motorized small pumps and electricity-powered large pumps. We find that all three technologies yield positive returns on investment, but their applicability varies spatially and across community due to differences in capital costs and environmental feasibilities or conditions. Sensitivity analyses indicate the base decision parameters – net present value, benefit–cost ratio and internal rate of return – remain stable despite potential changes in the flow of future benefits or costs. This provides further evidence about the worthiness of investment in irrigation infrastructure and technologies. However, significant under-utilized infrastructural capacities exist that warrant complementary investment in human and institutional capacities. Based on the findings policy recommendations are provided.

Title: Land reclamation projects in the Egyptian Western Desert: management of 1.5 million acres of groundwater irrigation
Abstract: 
 This study examines the primary issues that Egypt’s irrigated agriculture faces in the land reclamation project in the Western Desert and potential solutions to ensure groundwater sustainability. Reduced groundwater quantity and quality, low adoption rates of precision irrigation systems, and increased energy for groundwater abstraction were recognized as challenges. Irrigation efficiency improvements, transitioning to high water-use efficiency crops, wastewater reuse, and groundwater monitoring have all been mentioned as viable water management options for maintaining irrigation well-planned use during the project’s age (100 years). Adoption and acceptance of these ideas by farmers in the impacted agricultural regions will determine their success.

Title: Analysing water provision in the critical interface of formal and informal urban water regimes
Abstract: 
 Science and technology studies and urban political ecology have made important contributions to the understanding of water provision in the Global South. In this article we develop insights from these fields with the aim to understand the blurring boundaries of urban water regimes and their power relations mediated by actors, institutions and technology. Furthermore, we explore how urban water regimes can form a critical interface which is a form of institutional–actor space where formal and informal water regimes encounter each other through conflict and cooperation.

Title: Different regulatory approaches to enhanced water protection in selected European jurisdictions
Abstract: 
 This paper presents the results of the analysis of initiatives taken by selected European Union member states concerning enhanced water protection with respect to ownership and management of water resources and water distribution systems. Two of the countries studied have recently enacted their constitutional protection of water (Slovakia and Slovenia), one country is planning to reinforce the protection of water in its constitution (Czech Republic) and one state found the constitutional protection of water unnecessary (Finland). Whereas the reasons for (not) protecting water at the constitutional level vary widely, the common denominator is a strong support for protecting water as resource.

Title: Spatial heterogeneity of household water insecurity in rural Uganda: implications for development
Abstract: 
 Little is known about the micro-scale spatial patterns of household water insecurity and their implications for community water interventions. This cross-sectional study analyses the location data of 250 households surveyed in Arua, Uganda, in August–September 2017 to evaluate correlates and geospatial clustering of household water insecurity, that is, geographical patterns in how water insecurity is experienced. The spatial cluster analysis identified clusters or outliers in every community, though with different spatial patterns. Household water insecurity was positively associated with food insecurity, round-trip fetching time, and water-related conflict within households and with neighbours. The observed spatial heterogeneity provides a new view of how household water insecurity experiences may vary in space and time, and can help practitioners understand the heterogeneity of impact that is often observed in water interventions.

Title: International water law and hydropolitics: an enquiry into the water conflict between India and Nepal
Abstract: 
 Despite an open border, shared culture, religious ties and strong people-to-people connectivity, governance of transboundary water resources has often led to diplomatic conflicts between India and Nepal. It is not unusual for hydro-development projects between the two to run into delays or opposition, despite great domestic need for water and electricity in both countries. Using fieldwork in Delhi and Kathmandu, this paper illustrates the factors that impede cooperation between the two sides on shared rivers and how the inadequacies of international water laws manifest themselves in bilateral negotiations on water governance. The paper locates the benefit-sharing framework in international water law using the case studies of the Pancheshwar and the SaptaKoshi–SunKoshi Project in the Mahakali and Koshi basins.

Title: Science mapping of water governance research in retrospect
Abstract: 
 This study employs, for the first time, a science mapping approach for understanding how water governance science is socially, intellectually and conceptually structured. The research collaboration, co-citation and keyword co-occurrence networks were illustrated by these steps: data retrieval, preprocessing, network extraction, normalization, mapping, analysis and visualization. The Netherlands, the United States, Germany, the UK, Canada and Australia were found to be major countries collaborating on water governance. Three groups of water governance research were identified to be focused on governance, management and policy, respectively, and water governance research mainly studied issues such as poverty, privatization and institutions.

Title: Model application for monitoring and locating leakages in rural area water pipeline networks
Abstract: 
 Monitoring and locating leaks in water supply pipelines are critical to the safety of rural drinking water, which is a highlighted issue in China. To meet this need, an XGBoost-based model was developed and applied to the rural water supply network in Dingyuan, China. It could diagnose water leakage while overcoming the obstacles caused by the limited scale and incompleteness of data. In a comparative case study, the proposed model outperformed the probabilistic neural network models, which require large-scale data, in terms of both F1-score and accuracy, thus demonstrating its capability to accurately locate leakage in rural water supply pipelines.

Title: Assessment method of urban domestic sewage treatment plant-network integration based on current drainage management
Abstract: 
 The main hindrance to implementation of domestic sewage treatment plant-network integration in China is the separated assessment method. The assessment method of plant-network integration links payment for sewage treatment to incoming pollutants, and payment for maintenance of the pipe network to the concentration of pollutants in incoming water. It helps establish an interactive link between the city and district, and motivates operation and management stakeholder groups. The method contains index system formulation, target value determination, assessment payment plan specification and city-district payment proportion clarification. It provides a solution for the current drainage management by promoting plant-network integration.

Title: Can sponge city construction in mainland China restore the river basin hydrology to an undeveloped state?
Abstract: 
 This paper explores whether the sponge city construction implemented in China can restore the hydrological condition of the river basins through runoff depth. The annual runoff depth was calculated based on the volume capture ratio of annual rainfall (VCRAR) and compared with undeveloped and before sponge city construction. The results conclude as follows: the current rainwater source control standard benefits the hydrology recovery in China. But the difference between before sponge city construction and undeveloped is large in 12.9% of the regions. The adjustment recommendations of the VCRAR proposed in this paper are favourable to restoring the river basin hydrology.

Title: Risk assessment and leakage prediction system of the water distribution system of Changzhou, China
Abstract: 
 In order to improve the application efficiency of intelligent monitoring equipment, leakage early warning system and water loss estimation methods under flow monitoring in different water supply areas are explored. Pressure monitoring provides risk alerts regarding unusual activity in the water distribution system in an effort to lessen or prevent catastrophic pipe bursting incidents. The location of leak points can be more accurately identified with the help of hydrophones or leak noise loggers. Furthermore, on the basis of the continuous improvement of hydraulic monitoring, a technical way to predict water quality changes through hydraulic monitoring is being developed.

Title: Sewage system diagnosis based on online monitoring technology
Abstract: 
 External water (such as rainwater, mountain water and groundwater) will decrease the inflow contaminant concentration in urban sewage plants, and pose challenges in improving the wastewater treatment quality and efficiency. Therefore, removing the external water is vital for this target. A sewage plant in Zhuhai, China, was considered as an example. By performing online flow monitoring, water quality testing, on-site survey and data analysis, the rainfall-derived inflow and infiltration of the sewage system were quantitatively analysed through the pollutant balance method. By proposing key emphases of severe problems, the presented findings will aid in sewage system maintenance and pipeline network renovation.

Title: Gender and social inclusion in community water resource management: lessons from two districts in the Himalayan foothills and the Terai in Nepal
Abstract: 
 Despite decades of concerted efforts to address the problem, Nepal’s rural water supply sector continues to be laced with gender and social exclusion. This study provides insights from community water-user groups in two geographically and socially diverse contexts to better understand, from a gender and social inclusion perspective, and through institutional bricolage, how some water-user groups adapt to local contexts, shaping varied group dynamics that are not always equitable. Findings reveal that policies promoting social inclusion are difficult to implement amid the complex web of social and economic factors associated with community-managed water supply systems.

Title: Multiple-use water systems and rural livelihoods in north-western Ghana: adjusting to a failed hope
Abstract: 
 This study examines the sustainability of multiple-use water systems (MUS) and the associated livelihood issues among women gardeners in north-western Ghana. Focus group discussions and observation techniques were used as part of a qualitative approach to data collection. We found that the MUS strategy has the ability to improve livelihoods. However, the viability of the strategy necessitates technical assistance and innovative fund-raising strategies. The MUS facility (the hope of the people) failed because these conditions were inadequate. Due to the beneficiaries’ worsening situation, alternative livelihoods were adopted, such as the migration of married women to southern Ghana, the production of charcoal and the harvesting of wild fruits.

Title: The international and historical dimensions of Chilean water bureaucracy
Abstract: 
 This article explores the global dimension of Chilean water bureaucracy through the lens of its peripheral global position. The study relies on historical sources and identifies three periods. The first period extends from the end of World War II to the 1973 military coup. During this time, the establishment of water policies, influenced by multilateral and direct US aid, resulted in the formation of a water bureaucracy. US influence persisted during the dictatorship (1973-1990) due to support for the military junta. Since the transition to democracy, the water bureaucracy has relied on foreign capital to implement various water policies.

Title: The marketization of water: environmental movements’ narratives and common experiences on water transfer projects in Colorado and western Iran
Abstract: 
 This comparative study explores how environmental movements in two different political economies, the US state of Colorado and western Iran, have experienced and framed water transfer projects as a mechanism for the marketization of water. It applies Polanyi’s and Harvey’s theories, using interviews with diverse social groups and various secondary data sources. The results show that, according to both social movements, water’s marketization has some similarities in terms of the commodification and commercialization of water. Still, different processes, means and mechanisms are used. The article highlights these similarities and differences by looking at the state’s role in two different contexts: a capitalist democracy (the United States) and a capitalist centralized statist system (Iran). The study finds that while some outcomes might be the same in Colorado and Iran for achieving the marketization of water, the means that the state/market uses to achieve those ends are different.

Title: Motivations, procedures and stated values for municipal flood plans: experiences from Central Europe
Abstract: 
 Municipal flood plans represent the lowest administrative planning instrument for flood risk management. Their value for local representatives in coping with floods remains unclear, however. We present a survey of municipal flood plans among 356 municipal representatives in Czechia. Our results indicate that legal and financial incentives are key motivations for adopting the plans; there is a rather weak collaborative effort from private companies when preparing the plans; and the trust in value of the plans is rather low. This calls for stronger integration of local and national expectations regarding flood planning instruments and for new frameworks of their assessment.

Title: Exploring cooperation over transboundary wetlands: the Hamoun Wetlands, Okavango Delta and Wadden Sea
Abstract: 
 Where wetlands transcend country borders, cooperation is key for their management, comparable with transboundary rivers and lakes. Building on existing research on rivers, lakes and groundwater, this paper uses document analysis and interviews to understand how countries work together on transboundary wetlands. First, indicators of cooperation are identified based on the water diplomacy literature. These are then applied to three wetlands, finding strong evidence of cooperation in the Wadden Sea, moderate evidence in the Okavango Delta and no evidence in the Hamoun Wetlands. Wetland cooperation seems highest where it is institutionalized.

Title: Does financial inclusion improve household drinking water source? An application to the case of Togo
Abstract: 
 This study investigates the impact of financial inclusion in bringing the financing gap of water infrastructure in developing countries using Togo as case study. Using a number of robust estimation techniques, we found that financial inclusion is associated with an increase in access to improved drinking water and a decline in the travel time to the water source, especially among the rural poor areas, female heads households and the northern part of the country. The influence of formal inclusive finance is higher and significant in contrast to informal financial inclusiveness, which has no significant impact. Policy implications are discussed.

Title: Irrigation and its wider regional impacts in Australia
Abstract: 
 Is the evidence sufficiently strong enough to justify the belief that irrigation (water applied) has a beneficial socio-economic impact on people in regional Australia? Using correlation coefficients, it was found that while a strong relationship existed between water applied and irrigators’ incomes (0.91) and production (0.87), the links were much weaker to dryland farmers’ incomes (0.49), the wider total regional income (0.41) and total employment (0.42). Weak links were found to exist with employment density (0.24), per capita incomes (0.03) and a measure of well-being (0.11) of people living in regions where more water was applied.

Title: An evaluation framework for localized groundwater supply systems at critical facilities
Abstract: 
 To survive the 2017/18 water crisis in the Western Cape Province of South Africa and to prepare for a challenging water future, the Western Cape Government developed and implemented plans to ensure water supply to certain of its critical service delivery facilities through the use of localized groundwater supply systems. The case study research of this programme provides both current and future disaster preparedness planners with an improved understanding of the levels of water resilience achievable through this strategy and the methodology to best achieve it. This also enables the critical success factors in pursuing this strategy to be distilled.

Title: On contingency, confidence and trust: how international water law stabilizes expectations under conditions of uncertainty
Abstract: 
 How is international water law able to stabilize expectations amid uncertain conditions? We use modern systems theory to hypothesize using the Lancang–Mekong River context. We propose: Hypothesis 1: Equitable utilization norms incorporate variant possibilities to solve the problem of contingency; Hypothesis 2: No significant harm norms select expectations worth protecting to solve the problem of confidence; Hypothesis 3: Cooperation norms retain learning opportunities to solve the problem of trust. Our aim is not to test correspondence with reality, but to stimulate understanding of international water law. Specifically, we evaluate how system problems of contingency, confidence and trust shape laws’ function.

Title: Socio-political barriers to sustainable urban water governance: the case of Cartagena, Colombia
Abstract: 
 Socio-political factors shape urban water insecurity, yet are often not incorporated into urban water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) planning. WASH service coverage rates in Cartagena, Colombia, suggest high water security, yet the history of water policy and governance in the city from 1991 to 2019 reveals a more complex reality of water insecurity that is not reflected in service coverage indicators. This case study bridges scientific enquiry with policy to demonstrate how weak institutions and governance at municipal levels undermine local water security and the implementation of national sustainable development policy.

Title: Governance in the La Plata River Basin and OECD principles: an opinion survey of transboundary water professionals
Abstract: 
 This article analyses how La Plata River Basin experts perceive the process of setting up the governance of transboundary waters and determines whether the principles of good governance are adhered to, as established by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). A questionnaire was developed and submitted to experts with demonstrated expertise in the field. The results suggest that transboundary water governance needs to be strengthened. Critical issues include principles related to policy coherence and coordination among sectors, integrity and transparency, stakeholder engagement, and balanced commitments between consumers, rural and urban regions, and generations.

Title: Does bilateral trade in cereals within SADC reflect virtual trade in water between countries with different water endowments?
Abstract: 
 This paper examines intraregional bilateral trade in virtual water embedded in cereal flows between the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) states. A gravity model is employed to examine whether annual bilateral trade depends on differences in water endowments, but also includes socio-economic and political determinants that affect trade. There is evidence that the abundance of water resources in a country influences trade for a product that is water dependent. Thus, the adverse effect of water scarcity in a country may be ameliorated by encouraging exports of water-intensive cereal crops where water is in abundance and imported where water is scarce.

Title: Re-inventing the underprivileged irrigation tenant? A socio-historical perspective on irrigation rights in Zimbabwe as defined by the 2021 Irrigable Areas (Control) regulations
Abstract: 
 Both colonial and post-colonial administrations in Zimbabwe identified irrigation as important for climate-proofing the agriculture sector, and put measures to this end. The 2021 Regulations are the most recent, but are based on colonial-era 1970 Regulations that deprived the majority Black farmers of their irrigation rights. The regulations, just like their predecessor, espouse the notion of irrigation as a privilege. This raises the question whether they provide a solid basis for restoring irrigation rights of Black farmers, and enhancing the rights of all irrigators in the country. If fully implemented, the regulations will reduce all irrigators to underprivileged irrigation tenants.

Title: Governance attributes for building water resilience: a literature review
Abstract: 
 Resilience has gained prominence in many fields of research and practice globally. In the water sector, efforts to build resilience have become a central feature of water governance. However, current scholarships frame resilience interventions in socio-ecological systems through adaptive governance. There is limited knowledge about what the adaptive governance agenda means as a technical approach to water governance in achieving resilience. This paper clarifies these linkages through a review of the literature. It identifies key attributes of adaptive governance for building resilience of socio-ecological systems and suggests the benefits of better articulating ‘good governance’ with ‘adaptive governance’ to foster water resilience.

Title: Liminal waters, contested imaginaries: Andean comunas and Ecuador’s new water law
Abstract: 
 This article examines the impacts of Ecuador’s 2014 water law on comunas ancestrales (traditional communal Andean villages), highlighting a disconnect between formal legal frameworks and day-to-day implementation. We focused on the case of Oyacoto, a peri-urban, Indigenous and Mestizo comuna struggling to maintain water management practices and identity while updating critical infrastructure. Using a qualitative approach, we studied the political and gender dimensions of responding to new water policy. Our findings highlight the challenges that small agricultural communities face to preserve community-based water planning within the constraints of centralized national policy.

Title: Data-sharing and decision support system to improve governance in transboundary waters in the La Plata River basin
Abstract: 
 Since 2016, the Intergovernmental Coordinating Committee of the La Plata Basin Countries has developed and implemented a decision support system (DSS) aimed at articulating, processing and integrating information. This system facilitates the availability of information to institutions and the public, supporting decision-making for integrated water resources management. Through document analysis and a bibliographical review, this technical note scrutinizes the DSS, emphasizing its pivotal role in La Plata governance. We contend that effective and efficient data-sharing should be considered a key goal in transboundary water governance, fostering collaborative regional initiatives for the sustainable management of transboundary water resources.

Title: Does data lead to cooperation? Lessons from Water Accounting Plus in the Cauvery basin, India
Abstract: 
 As the number of studies on remote sensing data for water management and governance increases, few articles reflect on their application in practice. This article shares learnings from the application of Water Accounting Plus (WA+) in a federal river basin in India. WA+ was applied to the Cauvery basin to contribute to solving transboundary water-sharing issues by providing a source of transparent data obtained through reproducible methods. By analysing how WA+ results and methodology were received, we show how data and models are also political and question the assumption that more data automatically lead to more equitable decision-making.

Title: Open-access remote sensing data for cooperation in transboundary water management
Abstract: 
 Open-access remote sensing products provide data for transboundary water management. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the applications, uncertainties and implications of these remote sensing data products in the context of transboundary water management. Focusing on different stages within the transboundary cooperation continuum, we delineate the potential role and application of remote sensing data at the various stages of this cooperation. Despite the uncertainties and capacity requirements for data acquisition, processing and interpretation, we argue that remote sensing broadens opportunities to monitor, assess, forecast, track or validate compliance in transboundary basins, thereby challenging traditional notions of water data exclusivity.

Title: Developing the transboundary Long Term Vision of the Scheldt Estuary – an untold story
Abstract: 
 The development of the bilateral Long Term Vision for the Scheldt Estuary between 1999 and 2001 reveals that it is possible to move from a history of conflict to cooperation in just two years. A retrospective, insider perspective is used to analyse the integrated three-layer hybrid modelling at the heart of this groundbreaking agreement. We tell an untold story of the collaborative eco-morphological modelling activity that served as a boundary object supporting communication and contributing to a model-based metaphor of the intrinsic character of the estuary – its most lasting contribution.

Title: Using data collection to build trust and ownership in transboundary water allocation planning: a case study from the Mara River Basin
Abstract: 
 Following a 2015 Memorandum of Understanding, efforts began to develop a transboundary water allocation plan in the Mara River Basin between Kenya and Tanzania. Many lessons were learned along that way, including the importance of involving basin and national water authorities in all phases of data collection, planning and decision-making; understanding existing water management structures to promote communication and cooperation within countries; and using locally collected data whenever possible. Applying these concepts to future efforts can promote, although not ensure, ownership of the process within each country, trust between countries, and productive discussions around transboundary water resources.

Title: Basin-wide knowledge exchange for the sustainable management of the Colorado River
Abstract: 
 The Colorado River is facing a crisis resulting from demands that have outstripped diminishing supplies, exacerbated by a severe multi-decadal drought and the effects of climate change. As participants directly involved in recent agreements seeking to address this challenge, we describe how a critical basin-wide lens has been developed through information transparency, including the evolution and voluntary exchange of computational models. To achieve greater sustainability, further resolve and commitment from water managers in the United States and Mexico is necessary to ensure the required enhancement of the knowledge systems that will be used to inform extremely difficult and critical decisions.

Title: Dam operation using satellite data and hydrological models: the case of Roseires dam and Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam in the Blue Nile River
Abstract: 
 The unexpected drop of the Blue Nile water in July 2020, attributed to the sudden closure of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) during the first filling in 2020, significantly interrupted the water supply for Khartoum, Sudan. This incident pursued using satellites and hydrological models to estimate inflows into Roseires dam. A hydrological model was developed to predict GERD inflows, while reservoir levels were extracted from Sentinel-1, -2 and Jason-3. A water balance model was developed to predict GERD releases and the dates of overtopping during subsequent fillings events. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of satellite data and models for transboundary reservoir management.

Title: Do needs motivate the exchange of data in transboundary waters? Insights from Africa’s shared basins
Abstract: 
 Despite widespread recognition of the importance of data exchange in transboundary waters’ management, there is growing evidence that data exchange is falling short in practice. A possible explanation may be that data exchange occurs where and when it is needed. Needs for data exchange in shared waters, nonetheless, have not been systematically assessed. This paper evaluates data exchange needs in a set of transboundary basins and compares such needs with evidenced levels of data exchange. Our findings indicate that it may be possible to accelerate data exchange by identifying and promoting the exchange of data that respond to palpable need and serve practical use.

Title: Lake Victoria water levels declining (2000-2006): the role of absent and uncertain data in a transboundary water controversy
Abstract: 
 Access to accurate and trusted data for transboundary water management is important but not always sufficiently appreciated. Based on the Lake Victoria water levels decline, this technical note demonstrates that when a water crisis unfolds, tensions can arise because of absence of relevant data and uncertainty over data that are available. These may hamper the process towards agreeing on actions to be taken, thus delaying crisis resolution. This technical note demonstrates the importance of reliable data in a sensitive transboundary water situation. Countries therefore should allocate sufficient resources for adequately monitoring the state of transboundary water resources within their territories.

Title: Water-food-energy nexus assessment for major agricultural crops and different irrigation methods of Lake Urmia basin, Iran
Abstract: 
 In this study, the water-food-energy nexus in the Lake Urmia basin was investigated to establish a balance between water and energy consumption, aiming to protect the environment and ensure food security. The research was conducted on 17 farms located in different parts of the Lake Urmia basin, encompassing the predominant crops in the region as well as a variety of irrigation systems. An integrated water-food-energy nexus index was developed, which included irrigation application efficiency, water productivity, energy ratio, energy efficiency, various water footprints and the carbon footprint. The implementation of drip irrigation systems can significantly reduce potential harm to water and energy resources, and the environment.

Title: Participatory analysis of water-related conflict risks in complex adaptive systems – the case of the Inner Niger Delta in Mali
Abstract: 
 To avoid negative societal implications from water management actions, the complex interrelations between water and conflict need to be understood. Assessment of such links in complex adaptive systems, characterized by various factors which mutually influence each other, is challenging. This paper explores how the use of participatory methods can support the identification of water-related conflict risks in one such complex adaptive system: the Inner Niger Delta in Mali. We find that participatory analysis not only facilitated the identification of systemic risks in a complex adaptive system, but also shapes the perceptions of these interlinkages.

Title: Access to water and COVID-19: a regression discontinuity analysis for the peri-urban areas of metropolitan Lima, Peru
Abstract: 
 This paper presents the results of a quasi-experimental study using information collected through a survey conducted in peri-urban areas of metropolitan Lima and applied to households residing close to and on both sides of the geographic boundary of piped water supply. We find that access to piped water was associated with a reduction in the probability of contracting COVID-19. Furthermore, the results suggest that a minimum consumption level must be guaranteed to lower infection probability. These results highlight the need for investment in infrastructure to close access gaps and the importance of ensuring quality and affordable services for the population.

Title: Sanitation in a changing world: the need for a paradigm shift in the mindset of development agencies
Abstract: 
 National and international agencies have struggled to address sanitation challenges for over a century without groundbreaking evidence of success. The context of sanitation management has changed over the last two centuries. In this changing world, the viewpoint calls for development agencies to move from a fixed-growth mindset towards a ‘benefit mindset’. Such a perspective is about purposefulness, adaptability and flexibility by developing context-specific approaches. In this respect, improvised community-led total sanitation (CLTS) could offer a way forward.

Title: Housing inadequacy and income in Brazil: water supply and sewage in metropolitan areas
Abstract: 
 This article analyses how households in Brazil, in urban areas of metropolitan regions, with distinct income ranges, can or cannot access adequate housing services, especially water supply and sanitation. In order to conduct the analysis, the concept of household inadequacy was developed. Besides descriptive analyses of the data, tests of association were conducted between household income and the existence of inadequacies. The results indicate that, besides being concentrated among low-income households, frequent and significant inadequacies are also found in high-income households. This aspect reduces the degree of association between household income and the inadequacies analysed.

Title: Agriculture and the ideals of urban modernity: the case of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Abstract: 
 This article studies the policy dynamics of irrigated agriculture in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, based on stakeholder interviews and a literature review. We found that irrigated urban agriculture receives a positive reception supported by a discourse that values productivity, but this is increasingly challenged by a discourse that focuses on health and modernity. Whereas authorities aim for modern farming models, most urban farmers contribute to the city’s economy and food system based on informal and insecure access to land and water. These two types of urban agriculture exemplify the tension between planning ideals and urban reality.

Title: Irrigated urban agriculture: a mixture of farming scales, water flows and actors in Nairobi, Kenya
Abstract: 
 Irrigated urban agriculture (IUA) is important for urban food systems and livelihoods but has many unknown socio-technical configurations. This article examines the dynamics of farm irrigation and associated sociotechnical arrangements in the Nairobi catchment. The research shows that there are five principal forms of IUA, differentiated according to land sizes, water sources and suitability, technicality, actors, and market orientation. The city service does not provide arrangements for hydraulic infrastructure or agricultural extension, and state agencies do not take IUA practices into account. The complexity of the socio-technical configurations calls for flexible governance arrangements that go beyond the established models.

Title: Faecal contamination on lettuce irrigated with different water sources in Maputo, Mozambique
Abstract: 
 Faecal contamination across the lettuce value chain was assessed in Maputo, Mozambique. Escherichia coli was used as an indicator of faecal contamination, with concentrations ranging from 3.4 to 5.7 log units/100 ml in groundwater, river water and partially treated wastewater. Municipal tap water used to wash lettuce heads in the markets had lower than 1 log unit/100 ml. Irrespective of the source of irrigation water, the lettuce heads were contaminated throughout the value chain, with concentrations ranging between 6.5 and 7.8 log units/100 g. Interventions and awareness raising should be applied at every stage of the value chain.

Title: Farming and the city: the changing imaginary of the city and Maputo’s irrigated urban agriculture from 1960 to 2020
Abstract: 
 Irrigated urban agriculture using various water sources has been consistently present throughout Maputo’s history. Grounded in Infulene Valley, we delve into how urban planning has evolved since 1960 and trace the implications of these policies on urban farming and the livelihoods dependent on it. Documenting the imaginaries of the city over four eras of Maputo’s development, we find that agriculture occupied a prominent place in the post-colonial city, and continues to be significant, despite its vague recognition within urban planning, after the shift to neoliberalism. We advocate for acknowledging urban irrigated agriculture as an intrinsic feature of the city.

Title: A tale of service regimes in irrigated urban agriculture: evidence from two cities in the Global South
Abstract: 
 This paper presents a service regime perspective on irrigated agricultural practices and their governance in cities of the developing world. Findings of the governance of irrigated urban agriculture and adjacent practices in Arusha (Tanzania) and Khulna (Bangladesh) show how service regimes bridge the gap between (formal) governance institutions and practices around irrigated urban agriculture. They cross-cut the different institutional layers in urban society and boundaries between agricultural and urban water systems. By acknowledging, facilitating and aligning service regimes, scholars and practitioners can strengthen governance arrangements for enhancing irrigated urban agriculture while safeguarding water quality and food safety.

Title: Technological solutions for harnessing the urban water potential in the Bengal Delta – a scenario planning approach
Abstract: 
 Given the future uncertainties regarding the availability of irrigation water in the Bengal Delta, planned water reuse in agriculture is a viable alternative. Using scenario planning, this paper depicted technological solutions to ensure the safe reuse of urban water in agriculture. A systematic literature review and expert interviews were conducted to identify the factors for appropriate technology selection. Results indicated that local conditions, resource recovery, energy consumption, initial investment and land availability are the notable factors for technology selection. Taking economic growth and demand for irrigation water, centralized (activated sludge) and decentralized technological (pond-based) solutions are envisioned to facilitate reuse.

Title: International Meuse Commission: 20 years of cooperation
Abstract: 
 Following the adoption of the Water Convention in Helsinki in 1992 and the Water Framework Directive in 2000, states located within a transboundary river basin were invited to set up basin organizations. The International Meuse Commission (IMC) was set up in 2002, under an agreement between France, Luxembourg, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. Over the last 20 years, the IMC has been a forum for exchange, coordination and cooperation between the riparian countries, leading to improvements in the water quality of the Meuse, reduction of obstacles for migratory fish, and establishment of cross-border systems to prevent accidental pollution and flooding.

Title: Scalar politics in international water law
Abstract: 
 This paper examines the shift in international water law from traditional nation-state governance to embracing hydrological units such as watersheds through the lens of scalar politics. It scrutinizes how the United Nations Water Conventions, by advocating various legal principles such as equity and no harm, have triggered rescaling in transboundary water governance globally. Through an extensive survey of legal documents, this paper further uncovers diverse scalar reconfigurations that permeate bilateral, multilateral and regional water treaties and interface with existing social, political and legal structures across different regions, highlighting the multiplicity of rescaling processes.

Title: The ICPR measuring programme chemistry and its monitoring approach – a look back and a glimpse of the future
Abstract: 
 The Rhine measuring programme chemistry dates back to 1953, and its monitoring network as well as procedures have changed significantly over time. Next to pressures from industry and household wastewater loads, catastrophes such as the Sandoz chemical spill in 1986 fostered international cooperation along the Rhine. By integrating technical trends and innovations, the programme has managed to keep pace with societal and regulative demands. It remains a programme with one foot in its long history and one in the present, facing the challenges to come, with its strength based on a multilevel international cooperation based on trust.

Title: Towards effective cooperation dynamics in transboundary river basins: a case study of the Nile and Orontes rivers
Abstract: 
 Currently the Nile and the Orontes River basins are in the international spotlight as tension escalates between Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia in the former and between Syria and Turkey in the latter. In this article we investigate the cooperation dynamics between nation states in the two basins. We analyze the obstacles to cooperation that prevent the improvement of these dynamics through a novel analytical framework that enables researchers and policymakers to understand the cooperation dynamics in these transboundary river basins through a common set of terminologies and definitions.

Title: Provisioning of water ecosystem services in the Kapingazi River Basin in Kenya: can prospects of willingness to pay improve water quality and quantity?
Abstract: 
 The Kapingazi River Basin in Kenya is home to a range of ecosystem services. Agricultural and industrial activities have negatively impacted water quality and flows. This study assesses the willingness to pay for improving water service provision. Two-thirds of the respondents are willing to pay for improved water quality and quantity. The respondents were willing to pay an average of US$9.10 per annum for improved water services, not counting water connection fees. Logistic regression analysis revealed that age, education and household size were factors influencing respondents’ willingness to pay.

Title: Institutionalizing groundwater management and transboundary aquifer cooperation in sub-Saharan lake and river basin organizations
Abstract: 
 Groundwater is a major source of water supply and supports many ecosystems in sub-Saharan Africa. According to Integrated Water Resources Management principles, institutionalizing groundwater management and transboundary aquifer cooperation within lake and river basin organizations has long been on the agenda. Although progress has been made at the institutional and operational levels over the last decade, the capacity of these organizations has not been structurally augmented. While this calls for broad structural changes, a few practical solutions are proposed, such as hiring hydrogeologists in regional institutions, adopting open water data policies, and prioritizing intervention areas in transboundary aquifers.

Title: Reflections on transboundary water conflict and cooperation trends
Abstract: 
 This article explores major findings and evolutions in understandings of transboundary water conflict and cooperation over the last three decades, focusing on the trends emerging from the Transboundary Freshwater Diplomacy Database. It is found that since the 1940s, countries tend to cooperate over shared water resources, in contrast to media portrayals of ‘water wars’. Water conflicts, which have increased slightly since 2000, are mostly fuelled by water quantity disputes or unilateral infrastructure developments. Institutions play a role in facilitating cooperation and reducing conflict over shared waters, but their growth and adoption have slowed over the last few decades.

Title: Integrating water charges policies and watershed plans for improved investment and financial sustainability in water resources management
Abstract: 
 This paper proposes a dual-feedback process that links watershed plan actions with raw water charges. A dedicated decision support model is created to implement this process and allow long-term financial sustainability analysis. The model offers real-time analysis of various watershed actions using customizable prioritization criteria integrated with different water pricing configurations, including user-polluter pays and beneficiary-pays principles, as well as other funding sources. Application to the Piracicaba–Capiravi–Jundiaí Basins in Brazil shows how important water management and water quality improving actions can be funded through water charges and how finance gaps can be resolved through a shared Vision Modelling approach.

Title: Governance and management of large US river basins in diverse regions under a federal government model
Abstract: 
 How water governance mechanisms differ is evident in three diverse basins in the United States: the Colorado River, the Missouri River, and the linked Apalachicola–Chattahoochee–Flint and Alabama–Coosa–Tallapoosa basins. Climate change is a major stressor in all three and requires flexibility to adapt. The roles of compacts, coordination mechanisms, allocation formulas, courts, and intergovernmental relationships are different, except the federal government’s operation of large reservoirs. Ambiguities in relative powers of the federal and state governments inhibit coordination and negotiation. A major feature of the federal system is importance of legal mechanisms for dispute resolution to supplement collective action.

Title: Governance of the binational basin of the Bermejo and Grande de Tarija rivers between Argentina and Bolivia (1995–2019)
Abstract: 
 The transboundary basin of the Bermejo and Grande de Tarija rivers, shared between Argentina and Bolivia, is a key area in the water system of the La Plata Basin. The governance of this basin presents particular challenges in its socio-environmental and economic-productive dimensions. The objective of this article is to analyze the Argentine-Bolivian governance in the integrated management of this binational basin during 1995–2019, within the institutional framework of its Binational Commission and the participation of the stakeholders in decision-making. The theoretical framework uses the neo-institutionalist perspective of International Relations, from the international regimes and governance theories.

Title: The Portuguese dams of the international Douro, climate change and adaptation strategies: perspectives within the framework of the Albufeira Convention and the Water Framework Directive
Abstract: 
 The Douro international region in Portugal is vulnerable to reduced water availability due to climate change. By using spatial data, it is possible to synthesize the hydrometeorological effects in the medium and long term on water storage volume. Given the importance of the Douro River for hydroelectric power generation in Portugal, it is crucial to ensure that adaptation strategies align with international agreements that provide guidelines for managing transboundary water resources.

Title: Expectations and reality of IWRM implementation across 30 years of water management in Poland
Abstract: 
 In Poland, starting from the early 1990s, political, economic and social transformations have also included water management. This case study analyses the changes in legislation in Poland over the last 30 years. After implementing IWRM assumptions at the turn of the century, Poland reverted to centralized administrative centres, making it difficult to manage water resources with IWRM principles.

Title: How does a master plan contribute to strengthening transboundary water management? A case study in West Africa
Abstract: 
 The first Masterplan for the Gambia River Basin Development Organisation (OMVG) was recently co-constructed through extensive consultation, participatory workshops, and hydro-economic modelling. Regional stakeholders and experts elaborated sectoral plans reflecting national priorities and defined five development scenarios. Participatory modelling led through iteration to agreeing to a sixth trade-off scenario capable of irrigating 64,000 ha, producing 4180 GWh/year of hydropower while satisfying low flow requirements to maintain ecosystem services. Combined with continuous training on water modelling, the development of this masterplan enhanced regional knowledge of water resources and supports OMVG in its ability to make informed water allocation and management decisions.

Title: Take it as a compliment: integrating complementary measures as the next chapter of Murray–Darling Basin water management
Abstract: 
 The Murray-Darling Basin has undergone significant reform, primarily focused on rebalancing water shares between diversions and the environment. The Murray-Darling Basin Plan and earlier reforms have reduced diversions to an annual average 28% of inflows, within acceptable impacts in global frameworks for the ecological limits of hydrologic alteration. However, non-water components, known as complementary measures, have received little attention, despite being considered equally important to deliver all anticipated environmental benefits. The lessons learned about the value of integrating both flow, and non-flow, measures to achieve ecological objectives are an important case study for basins globally attempting ambitious environmental reforms.

Title: Up close and personal: an essential ingredient in transboundary water basin agreements
Abstract: 
 While the media is filled with accounts of water scarcity and threats to water quality, abundant examples of effective transboundary water resource agreements exist throughout the world. This article discusses how consensus was reached between diverse stakeholder groups in the Canterbury Plains District on the South Island of New Zealand. The interdisciplinary, trans-sector water users included the Indigenous Ngāi Tahu. Interviews indicated successful water agreements were positively facilitated by face-to-face interactions during meetings, meals, field trips, and casual interaction, intentionally implemented by the Ngāi Tahu. When encouraged during the stakeholder process, this interpersonal aspect has repeatedly broken through intractable stalemates.

Title: Reduction of micropollutants in the Rhine catchment area – monitoring and assessment system
Abstract: 
 The programme ‘Rhine 2040’ of the International Commission for the Protection of the Rhine (ICPR) states that the ‘influx of micropollutants into waters from municipal waste water collection and treatment systems, industry and commerce as well as agriculture is to be reduced by at least 30% in comparison to the period 2016–2018’. In order to be able to numerically check the input reduction in influx at regular intervals, the ICPR developed an evaluation system for the reduction across the three areas. The assessment approach for agriculture was considered separately, as the input situation here differs significantly.

Title: Benefit-sharing dialogue to promote and guide investment decisions in the Sio-Malaba-Malakisi (SMM) transboundary basin, shared between Kenya and Uganda
Abstract: 
 As climate change impacts and competition for water increases, sharing of water resources is becoming a challenging endeavour. This becomes harder in a transboundary setting where a basin is shared by different countries in a region that is 60% arid and semi-arid areas, such as the Horn of Africa where tensions due to water scarcity are high. Stakeholders in the transboundary settings often represent varied interests, drawn from different sectors and levels from local to national to regional scales in the riparian countries. Hence the need for a benefit-sharing dialogue.

Title: Local institutional adaptation to groundwater overexploitation challenges: case study from Copiapó aquifer, Chile
Abstract: 
 Chile’s approach to water management, based on a private property regimen combined with a period of extreme drought, had led to the overexploitation of groundwater. To address this issue, groundwater communities have formed and implemented management actions beyond the functions assigned to them by law. This article focuses on the experience of groundwater communities in the Copiapó Aquifer in Chile, highlighting their innovative actions such as incorporating environmental protection goals, promoting participation in decision-making, facilitating temporary water transfers, and conducting studies for improved management. The adaptive capacity demonstrated by groundwater communities shows the potential for innovation in Chilean groundwater management.

Title: Multistakeholder regional dialogues as catalysers for transboundary water cooperation
Abstract: 
 Multistakeholder dialogues (MSDs) provide unique opportunities for partners and key stakeholders to meet in a neutral space, get to know each other, and build trust and mutual understanding before getting into the issue of water cooperation. The study identifies four key enabling factors stimulating regional MSDs: (a) balancing inclusion and role of facilitators, (b) utilizing existing regional political and economic processes, (c) using thematic anchoring and strategic design, and (d) leveraging sustainable finance. An examination of transboundary regional MSDs in South East Europe, Southern Africa, and South Asia reveals the pivotal role played by these four factor.

Title: Rethinking urban water management: a case study of vulnerability in the Kingston Basin
Abstract: 
 Climate change has created much uncertainty about the future sustainability of freshwater resources. This study presents a hydro-social approach to vulnerability reduction within the Kingston Hydrological Basin as a critical aspect of advancing sustainable water management in Jamaica over the next 30 years. The study identified vulnerability measures across the basin’s natural, social, technical and political components using a vulnerability assessment and risk-based analysis. The methodology involved an integrated and multi-stakeholder approach. The results revealed 21 measures constituting the basin’s vulnerability to observed and projected societal and environmental change, 11 of which present a high to very high risk level.

Title: Critical analysis of the river basin management system in South Korea since 2018
Abstract: 
 The study analyses the newly established river basin management system in South Korea since the 2018 Framework Act on Water Management. Several river basin organizations have been introduced in Korea. Most of the responsibilities related to water policy have been transferred to the Ministry of Environment. There has been almost no transformation in water policy supporting river basin organizations despite the enshrinement of the principle in the 2018 Act due to the apparent lack of interest by the ministry. Good awareness and measures both local and nationwide are warranted to ensure that the system is operational and successful.
