Valuing Fisheries and Wetlands Using Integrated Economic-Hydrologic Modeling—Mekong River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A healthy water ecosystem is particularly important in the Mekong River Basin, home to 75 million people who depend on its water for rice and fish production. Sound water policies will be needed to sustain current basin ...
Modeling the Agricultural Water–Energy–Food Nexus in the Indus River Basin, Pakistan
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Nexus thinking is critical to jointly address growing water, energy, and food security challenges. This paper evaluates the water, energy, and food nexus (WEFN) in the Indus River of Pakistan using the Indus Basin Model ...
Guiding Groundwater Policy in the Indus Basin of Pakistan Using a Physically Based Groundwater Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The exponential increase in groundwater usage over the past few decades in the Punjab province in Pakistan is responsible for the significant groundwater table decline in many parts of the province, leading to an urgent ...
Joint Water Quantity-Quality Management in a Biofuel Production Area—Integrated Economic-Hydrologic Modeling Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Water management in the Pirapama River Basin in northeastern Brazil is affected by both water quantity and water quality constraints. The region is known for significant sugarcane-based ethanol production—which is the key ...
