WETwin: a structured approach to evaluating wetland management options in data-poor contexts
This paper provides the synthesis of the special issue on the ''role of wetlands in river basin management'' and reviews lessons learnt from a comparative assessment of the presented case studies in Europe, Africa and Latin-America. Although wetlands are important for local communities and biodiv...
