This book is a compilation of original research articles that apply a variety of techniques to identify and evaluate water resource management policies. These papers cover a wide range of topics and methodologies applied across the world, from a local to a continental scope. They illustrate open challenges in water resource management, such as the quantitative assessment of policy impacts, trade-off analyses, understanding the water–energy–food–environment nexus, collaborative model development, stakeholder engagement, formalizing social interactions, or improving the theoretical understanding of complex adaptive systems. Therefore, this book is a representation of research areas that have emerged from the origins of water resource systems analysis, seeking to improve the way in which water policy is formulated and implemented.

Water resource management includes the consideration of all disciplines of hydrology and water sources. Water supplies are allocated and diverted to cover the water needs of a range of agricultural, municipal, industrial, hydro-electrical, and ecological water uses. These water uses are, usually, very competitive, as the available water resources are limited and it is not possible to cover the total water needs in a basin, requiring the setting of water use priorities to best serve societal and ecological needs. To manage the water resources and waterworks may, sometimes, lead to confrontational deliberations and negotiations. As a result, water resource management is one of the world’s greatest challenges due to competition for limited resources, regional disparities in water supply and affluence, mounting global water demand, aquifer depletion, and pollution- and climate-change-induced water stress. Proper policy and governance for sustainable water resource management is essential and require new fresh ideas, innovation, and international cooperation. This book includes seven papers by invited renowned researchers and engineers to cover issues of water resource management, governance, and policy. These issues include the following topics: Integrated water resource management; Water resource systems and water availability; National and international water policy, institutional arrangements, and water law; Water conflict resolution, public participation, and decision making; Water resource management, policy and governance in socially and environmentally sensitive areas and regions.

Technology: general issues --- History of engineering & technology --- water allocation --- planning --- river/reservoir systems --- water availability modeling --- global change --- integrated assessment modelling --- system dynamics simulation --- water resources management --- water supply --- climate change --- earth system --- feedback --- conflicts --- environmental flows --- small-scale hydropower projects --- institutional change --- nestedness --- governance mode --- legal pluralism --- mulberry-dyke-fish pond ecosystem --- spatial evolution analysis --- remote sensing --- Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area --- prolonged drought --- scarcity --- indicators --- transboundary river basins --- Iberian Peninsula --- climate crisis --- water adaptation --- Greece --- Koronia lake --- sustainability --- Mygdonia Basin --- n/a --- Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area
