Climate change impacts on water sustainability of South African crop production

Sara Bonetti

Agricultural production in arid and semi-arid regions is particularly vulnerable to climate change, which, combined with projected food requirements, makes the sustainable management of water resources critical to ensure national and global food security. ...

Limited role of soil texture in mediating natural vegetation response to rainfall anomalies

Sara Bonetti, Dani Or

Evidence suggests that the response of rainfed crops to dry or wet years is modulated by soil texture. This is a central tenet for certain agronomic operations in water-limited regions that rely on spatial distribution of soil texture for guiding precision ...

The Qiangtang Basin is a large endorheic basin in the inner part of the Tibetan Plateau and has been thought to be a dry region in contrast with its wet surrounding outer region that feeds all the major Asian rivers. Combining surface hydrological data wit ...

Power Law Growth and Delayed Feedbacks in Socio‐Hydrological Systems

Gabriele Manoli

Water infrastructure dynamics result from coupled social and physical hydrological processes embedded in “socio-hydrological systems” (SHSs). Freshwater fuels socioeconomic activity, which in turn exerts pressure on water resources through increased water ...

2019

Freshwater resources are of high societal relevance, and understanding their past variability is vital to water management in the context of ongoing climate change. This study introduces a global gridded monthly reconstruction of runoff covering the period ...

Human domination of the global water cycle absent from depictions and perceptions

Camille Roland Marie Minaudo

Human water use, climate change and land conversion have created a water crisis for billions of individuals and many ecosystems worldwide. Global water stocks and fluxes are estimated empirically and with computer models, but this information is conveyed t ...

The Demographics of Water: A Review of Water Ages in the Critical Zone

Paolo Benettin

The time that water takes to travel through the terrestrial hydrological cycle and the critical zone is of great interest in Earth system sciences with broad implications for water quality and quantity. Most water age studies to date have focused on indivi ...

Zambezi River Basin

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

With a basin covering 1.4 million km2, the Zambezi is the fifth largest drainage basin in Africa. Bounded by the 9°S and 21°S parallels, it is home to approximately 30 million people and is officially shared by eight riparian countries. The river stretches ...

We introduce a new representation of coupled solute and water age dynamics at the catchment scale, which shows how the contributions of young runoff waters can be directly referenced to observed water quality patterns. The methodology stems from recent tre ...

BETTER WATER INFRASTRUCTURES FOR A BETTER WORLD – THE IMPORTANT ROLE OF WATER ASSOCIATIONS

Anton Schleiss

History shows that the economic prosperity of a society and its cultural wealth has always been closely related to the level of development of its water infrastructure. In view of climate change, especially dams and reservoirs, but also other water infrast ...
