We illustrated this framework in a case study where the RL‐ABM is two‐way coupled with the Colorado River Simulation System (CRSS), a long‐term planning model used for the administration of the Colorado River Basin, for assessing agriculture water uses impacts on water scarcity. Seventy‐...
B. No impact. C. Reduced production. D. Improved quality. 相关知识点: 试题来源: 解析 C。解析:“It can lead to food shortages as agriculture depends heavily on water. Without sufficient water, crops fail and livestock suffer.”表明水资源短缺会导致农业减产。反馈 收藏 ...
Water scarcity under various socio-economic pathways and its potential effects on food production in the Yellow River basin Increasing population and socio-economic development have put great pressure on water resources of the Yellow River (YR) basin. The anticipated climate and socio-economic changes...
The application of remote sensing in studying the impacts of climate change on water scarcity necessitates effective, efficient, and cost-effective technologies capable of analyzing large datasets. Therefore, this study was initiated to map various influential climatic variables and determine the impacts ...
Besides imposing restrictions on farmland irrigation in some areas, the Dutch government has called on the public to save water, suggesting less car washing, less watering of flowers, and less bathing, etc. At the same time, similar scenes of drought and water scarcity have occurred in some ot...
While water scarcity assessments exclusively focus on freshwater stress, it is only one element of physical water security and thus only one component of water security assessments. Both approaches, however, have important limitations that constrain their ability to support specific conclusions and drive...
As time goes on, it's becoming more difficult for companies to ignore the negative effects their business has on the environment and society. Natural disasters and shortages, like water scarcity, are starting to cost companies actual money. Your responsibility as an SME may look very different...
So far, impacts on waterresources have only been described qualitatively (4), withtheexceptionoftheEcologicalScarcity2006method(UBP06).TheEcologicalScarcitymethodquantifies eco-factors onthebasisofdefinedenvironmentaltargets(5) withoutaddressingspecific damages to human health and ecosystems. Due tothe...
This paper addresses water use impacts of agriculture, developing a spatially explicit approach tracing the location of water use and water scarcity related to feed production, transport, and livestock, tracking uncertainties and illustrating the approach with a case study on dairy production in the Un...
In most societies there has been an assumption that green water consumption is not significant enough to regulate. However, the growing demand for water, increasing water scarcity in many parts of the world, changing hydrology due to climate change -including the likelihood of more frequent floods...
