This Research Report chronicles the evolution of thinking on water productivity in the research agenda of IWMI and in the broader irrigation literature over the past 20 years. It describes the origins of the concept and the methodological developments, its operationalization through applied resea...

Elevated level of fluoride (F-) in drinking water is a well-recognized risk factor of dental fluorosis (DF). While considering optimization of region-specific standards for F-, it is reasonable, however, to consider how local diet, water sourcing practices, and non-F- elements in water may be rel...


Kravchenko, J.Rango, T.Akushevich, I.Atlaw, B.McCornick, Peter G.Merola, R.BPaul, CWeinthal, E.Harrison, C.Vengosh, A.Jeuland, M.[The effect of non-fluoride factors on risk of dental fluorosis: evidence from rural populations of the Main Ethiopian Rift]The effect of non-fluoride factors on risk of dental fluorosis: evidence from rural populations of the Main Ethiopian Rift

An integrated planning activity was undertaken for the Amman-Zarqa Basin in Jordan to account for present and future uses of water resources including reclaimed water. Upgrades to existing wastewater treatment plants mean new reclaimed water resources will be available in the future. To evaluate ...


Grabow, G.L.McCornick, Peter G.[Planning for water allocation and water quality using a spreadsheet-based model]Planning for water allocation and water quality using a spreadsheet-based model

The volume of wastewater generated by domestic, industrial and commercial sources has increased with population, urbanization, improved living conditions, and economic development. The productive use of wastewater has also increased, as millions of small-scale farmers in urban and peri-urban area...
