From the Cover: Water-controlled wealth of nations

Andrea Rinaldo, Samir Suweis, Paolo d'Odorico, Amos Maritan

Population growth is in general constrained by food production, which in turn depends on the access to water resources. At a country level, some populations use more water than they control because of their ability to import food and the virtual water requ ...
