This paper tells the story of trade-off between hydropower and irrigation and its implications for groundwater use in Syrdarya basin in Central Asia. With the independence of the central Asian republics, this trade-off has become a transboundary issue. Efforts to coordinate bilateral action using...

Of transboundary basins, integrated water resources management (IWRM) and second best solutions: the case of groundwater banking in Central Asia
Even though there has been increasing development of water management technologies over the years, the adoption rate by the farmers is comparatively small ranging from only 15-20%. Hence it is timely to look at the return to water management research investment to fine tune investment in future r...

Do investments in water management research pay?: an analysis of water management research in India.
Groundwater is now a major source of agricultural water supply in many parts of the world. The value of groundwater as a new source of supply is well known. However, its additional buffering or stabilization value is less appreciated and even less analysed. Knowledge on groundwater?s stabilizatio...

The stabilization value of groundwater: evidence from Indian tank irrigation systems.
Strict hydrologic definitions of basins coupled with technological advances including the use of remote sensing and geographic information systems have given us more accurate and detailed knowledge than ever before about the scale and extent of transboundary waters. This information has had both ...
