Integrated water resources management as a tool for drought planning and management in Botswana

A Stochastic Model for Water Resources Management

Irrigation water management is crucial for agricultural production and livelihood security in many regions and countries throughout the world. Over the past decades, controversial and conflictladen water-allocation issues among competing municipal, industrial and agricultural interests have raised increasing concerns. Particularly, growing population, varying natural conditions and shrinking wa...

Water-energy-food nexus as a new approach for watershed resources management: a review

Expert knowledge based modeling for integrated water resources planning and management in the Zayandehrud River Basin

Do N ot Do wn loa d This study highlights the need for water resource planning and management using expert knowledge to model known extreme hydrologic variability i complex hydrologic systems with lack of data. The Zayandehrud River Basin in Iran is used as an example of complex water system; this study provides a comprehensive description of the basin, including its water demands (municipal, a...

A Simulation Library for an Integrated Water Resources Management

A mixed integer optimisation approach for integrated water resources management

In areas lacking substantial freshwater resources, the utilisation of alternative water sources, such as desalinated seawater and reclaimed water, is a sustainable alternative option. This paper presents an optimisation approach for the integrated management of water resources, including desalinated seawater, wastewater and reclaimed water, for insular water deficient areas. The proposed mixed ...
