In the 1970s the US faced a serious shock to the supply of oil but the shortage of oil was caused by price controls. Today, California is facing a serious water drought but the shortage of water is caused by price controls, subsidies and the lack of water markets. In an excellent ...
a,b, Our models illustrate the ambivalent effect of water infrastructure development on water shortage by decreasing mobility (in red) and increasing water availability (in pink) (a) and the effect of water infrastructure development on sedentism and transition to highly water-dependent livelihoods ...
Yet, there has been no spatially detailed assessment of the potential for shifting to new crop mixes to reduce crop water demands and alleviate water shortage risks. In this study, we combined modelled crop water requirements and detailed agricultural statistics within a national hydrological model ...

In practice, the lack of definition of water allocation priorities causes increasing water competition conflicts between the energy and water supply sectors, especially during water shortage periods and before scarcity is reached [62]. The Brazilian electricity system is largely based on hydroelectricity ...
From this point of view, it is rather unlikely that a 50% loss in stem conductivity can cause a critical branch water shortage when in fact, only around 1% of the conductive capacity would be required. PLC threshold values are based on data either obtained from twigs of severely stressed ...
in the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River and on the southeast coasts face WScom. This implies that in South China, water shortage is only relevant when quality issue is considered, though quality-induced water scarcity alone is not significant....
