Sustainable water management under future uncertainty with eco-engineering decision scaling
1 Securing the supply and equitable allocation of fresh water to support human well-being while sustaining healthy, functioning ecosystems is one of the grand environmental challenges of the twenty-first century, particularly in light of accelerating stressors from climate change, population growth and economic development. Rehabilitation of ageing infrastructure and construction of new infrast...
متن کاملSustainable water resource management under hydrological uncertainty
[1] A proper understanding of the sources and effects of uncertainty is needed to achieve the goals of reliability and sustainability in water resource management and planning. Many studies have focused on uncertainties relating to climate inputs (e.g., precipitation and temperature), as well as those related to supply and demand relationships. In the end-to-end projection of the hydrological i...
متن کاملRole of engineering in sustainable water management
The recognition of the limits of resources is almost as old as the realization that our planet is a sphere leading to concerns about sustainable resources management. Water resources in particular receive growing attention given its uneven distribution in many parts of the world. Engineering solutions to address water management challenges played significant roles in the past in areas such as a...
متن کاملDecision Topology Assessment in Engineering Design under Uncertainty
The implications of decision analysis (DA) on engineering design are well known. Recently, the authors proposed decision topologies (DT) as a visual method for making design decisions and proved that they are consistent with normative decision analysis. This paper addresses the practical issue of assessing DTs for a decision maker (DM) using their responses, particularly under uncertainty. This...
متن کاملEnvironmental and Water Resources Decision - Making Under Uncertainty
HARRISON, KENNETH WATSON. Environmental and Water Resources Decision-Making Under Uncertainty. (Under the direction of S. Ranji Ranjithan.) Decision-making under uncertainty is an important area of study in numerous disciplines. The variety of quantitative methods that have been proposed to address environmental and water resources problems reflects the importance of this subject. In a review o...
