water scarcitycomputable general equilibriumpositive mathematical programmingExploitation of alternative water sources is expected to grow in the decades to come in water-stressed countries with fast population growth, especially in regions where a further decline of natural freshwater availability is expected...
Water scarcity is dynamic and complex, emerging from the combined influences of climate change, basin-level water resources, and managed systems' adaptive capacities. Beyond geophysical stressors and responses, it is critical to also consider how multi-sector, multi-scale economic teleconnections mitigat...
Candidate cities would be those that are already circular economy hotspots, including Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Malmo and Brussels. Combining these with potentially at-risk cities that may be close to Day Zero scenarios in terms of water scarcity, including London, Tokyo, Mexico City and Istanbul, woul...
(i.e., physical water scarcity), but it may also result from a lack of suitable infrastructure to provide access to what might otherwise be considered ample availablewater resources, which is referred to as economic water scarcity. Physical water scarcity may occur as a result of both natural...
scarcity, and so on—they're all excuses. The problem everywhere is bad management." Or, as Jean-Claude Juncker, president of the European Commission, put it in an entirely different context: "We all know what to do, we just don't know how to get re-elected after we've done it.”...
Water scarcity occurs when there are insufficient freshwater resources to meet the human and environmental demands of a certain area. Given the challenges of population growth, profligate use, growing pollution, and global warming, many countries and maj
Water scarcity is shown to have a negative impact on the economy of the BTH city region that amounts to CNY 270.02 billion. Hebei has the largest potential economic loss caused by water scarcity, especially in southern Hebei, the potential GDP (gross domestic product) of which is decreased ...
Reducing water scarcity requires both mitigation of the increasing water pollution and adaptation to the changing availability and demand of water resources under global change. However, state-of-the-art water scarcity modeling efforts often ignore water quality and associated biogeochemical processes in ...
area increases under climate change conditions.Climate change and water scarcity are recognized as serious risks threatening sustainable development in various aspects.Components affecting this prioritization are mostly climate change, poor long-term planning, and restricting global economic policies toward ...
This approach is capable of fully reflecting the impacts of economic connections across cities on water requirements in the BTH region. The study aims to take the BTH region as an example to investigate the effect of water scarcity on urban development by answering the following two questions: (...
