Critical hydrologic impacts from climate change: Addressing an urgent global need
An urgent need for COP27: Confronting converging crises
The last 12 months have provided further evidence of the potential for cascading ecological and socio-political crises that were warned of 12 months ago. Then a consensus statement from the Regional Action on Climate Change Symposium warned: "the Earth's climatic, ecological, and human systems are converging towards a crisis that threatens to engulf global civilization within the lifetimes of children now living." Since then, the consequences of …

From water footprint to climate change adaptation: Capacity development with teenagers to save water
Global Monthly Water Scarcity: Blue Water Footprints versus Blue Water Availability
Freshwater scarcity is a growing concern, placing considerable importance on the accuracy of indicators used to characterize and map water scarcity worldwide. We improve upon past efforts by using estimates of blue water footprints (consumptive use of ground- and surface water flows) rather than water withdrawals, accounting for the flows needed to sustain critical ecological functions and by considering monthly rather than annual values. We anal…
Dams on the Mekong River: Lost fish protein and the implications for land and water resources
Comparison of Bottom-Up and Top-Down Approaches to Calculating the Water Footprints of Nations
The water footprint has been introduced as a potential sustainability indicator for human-induced water consumption, and has frequently been studied at local, national and international scales during the last decade. While water footprints are sometimes understood as a measure that includes environmental impact assessment, the water footprint as used in this paper refers to volumes of water consumed, without including weighting procedures to allo…
The blue, green and grey water footprint of rice from production and consumption perspectives
The water footprints of Morocco and the Netherlands: Global water use as a result of domestic consumption of agricultural commodities
The water footprint of coffee and tea consumption in the Netherlands
International Trade in Meat: The Tip of the Pork Chop
This paper provides an original account of global land, water, and nitrogen use in support of industrialized livestock production and trade, with emphasis on two of the fastest-growing sectors, pork and poultry. Our analysis focuses on trade in feed and animal products, using a new model that calculates the amount of "virtual" nitrogen, water, and land used in production but not embedded in the product. We show how key meat-importing countries, s…
Water footprints of nations: Water use by people as a function of their consumption pattern
The water footprint of cotton consumption: An assessment of the impact of worldwide consumption of cotton products on the water resources in the cotton producing countries
