Learning from the Ancient Maya
Understanding the relationship between drought and population dynamics is increasingly important, particularly \nin areas where high population growth corresponds with increasing drought risk due to climate change. We \nexamine the relationship between drought events and population dynamics using a stylized hydrology-demography \nmodel that has been calibrated to simulate plausible feedbacks for the population decline of the Ancient \nMaya of Cen…
Socio-hydrology
Over history, humankind has tended to settle near streams because of the role of rivers as transportation corridors and the fertility of riparian areas. However, human settlements in floodplains have been threatened by the risk of flooding. Possible responses have been to resettle away and/or modify the river system by building flood control structures. This has led to a complex web of interactions and feedback mechanisms between hydrological and…
Towards effective water reuse
Treated wastewater or reclaimed water is gaining recognition as a valuable water resource around the world. To assess why, where and how water reuse takes place in Jordan, semi-structured interviews were conducted with representatives of 29 key organisations in 2008. The analysis reveals that water scarcity is a key driver for water reuse. However, despite such recognition, reuse was described positively by only a small proportion of the intervie…
