Abstract Water scarcity is a rapidly growing concern around the globe, but little known about how it has developed over time. This study provides first assessment of continuous sub-national trajectories blue water consumption, renewable freshwater availability, and for entire 20 th century. analysed using fundamental concepts shortage (impacts due to low availability per capita) stress high consumption relative availability) which indicate difficulties in satisfying needs population overuse...
Abstract An increasing amount of high-resolution global spatial data are available, and used for various assessments. However, key economic human development indicators still mainly provided only at national level, downscaled by users gridded analyses. Instead, it would be beneficial to adopt sub-national administrative units where supplemented necessary. To this end, we present gap-filled multiannual datasets in form Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Human Development Index (HDI). provide a...
Sensitivity analysis (SA) is en route to becoming an integral part of mathematical modeling. The tremendous potential benefits SA are, however, yet be fully realized, both for advancing mechanistic and data-driven modeling human natural systems, in support decision making. In this perspective paper, a multidisciplinary group researchers practitioners revisit the current status SA, outline research challenges regard theoretical frameworks their applications solve real-world problems. Six...
Growing population and water demand have increased pressure on resources in various parts of the globe, including many transboundary river basins. While impacts upstream use downstream availability been analysed these international basins, this has not systematically done at global scale using coherent comparable datasets. In study, we aim to assess change stress due world's Water was first calculated considering only local each sub-basin based country-basin mesh, then compared with...
The water-energy-food nexus is a topical subject for research and practice, reflecting the importance of these sectors humankind complexity magnitude challenges they are facing. While as concept not yet mature or fully tested in it has already encouraged range approaches variety contexts. This article provides set definitions recognizing three perspectives that see an analytical tool, governance framework emerging discourse. It discusses implications international transboundary context...
Exploring adaptation pathways is an emerging approach for supporting decision making under uncertain changing conditions. An pathway a sequence of policy actions to reach specified objectives. To develop pathways, interactions between environment and response need be analysed over time ensemble plausible futures. A fast, integrated model can facilitate this. Here, we describe the development evaluation such model, Integrated Assessment Metamodel (IAMM), explore in Rhine delta problem...
Abstract Various transboundary river basins are facing increased pressure on water resources in near future. However, little is known ab out the future drivers globally, namely, changes natural local runoff and inflows from upstream parts of a basin, as well consumption. Here we use an ensemble four global hydrological models forced by five climate latest greenhouse‐gas concentration (RCP) socioeconomic pathway (SSP) scenarios to assess impact these stress past Our results show that...
Abstract There is a fundamental tension between population growth and carrying capacity, i.e., the that could potentially be supported using resources technologies available at given time. When outpaces improvements in food production locally, imports can avoid local limits allow to continue. This import strategy central debate on security with continuing rapid of world population. highlights importance quantitative global understanding where implemented, whether it has been successful, what...
Abstract There is a pressing need to improve food security and reduce environmental impacts of agricultural production globally. Two the proposed measures are diet change from animal‐based plant‐based foodstuffs reduction losses waste. These two linked, as affects consumption consequently loss processes through their different water footprints percentages. This paper takes this link into account for first time provides an assessment combined potential contribution reducing scarcity. We apply...
Abstract. The variability of the hydroclimate over mainland Southeast Asia is strongly influenced by El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), which has been linked to severe droughts and floods that profoundly influence human societies ecosystems alike. Although significance ENSO well understood, there are still limitations in understanding its effects on hydroclimate, particularly with regard spatio-temporal characteristics long-term variation effects. Therefore we analysed seasonal evolution...
Abstract. Following the rise of R as a scientific programming language, increasing requirement for more transferable research and growth data availability in hydrology, packages containing hydrological models are becoming available an open-source resource to hydrologists. Corresponding core studies workflow, their value is increasingly meaningful regarding reliability methods results. Despite package model distinctiveness, no study has ever provided comparison conceptual rainfall–runoff...
