This state-of-the-art review aims to revise the influence of agroforestry systems (AFS) on climate change, soil conservation, and groundwater quality. The novelty of this review is that AFS can improve water quality, reduce nutrient loss, and support the biological, chemical, and physical properties of the soil. It is worth noting that the surficial geologic controls, slope gradient, soil types, and topographical conditions are factors that alter a watershed dominated by agroforestry areas. In addition, anthropic aspects, including agricultural practices, can also cause loss of water quality in basins dominated by an AFS area. This review is also novel in that it outlines how AFS can be used for the phytoremediation of contaminated soils to reduce aluminum (Al), mercury (Hg), and cadmium (Cd), among others. Therefore, AFS can be used for water decontamination, climate change mitigation, climate adaptation, and soil conservation. Further research is required to investigate the contribution of AFS to soil integrity.","PeriodicalId":49370,"journal":{"name":"Water Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42211855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The acceptance of restoration by society is crucial, however, the factors determining such acceptance are still poorly understood. In particular, the understanding of the complex interplay between the acceptance or rejection of specific project components and the acceptance of the overall project require further exploration. To address this research gap, we analyze a restoration project in Bad Bergzabern, Germany to (1) investigate the acceptance of the overall project and its components, and (2) explore why people accept or reject specific components. Three hundred and twenty-one in-person interviews were conducted and the factors of acceptance were analyzed using logistic regression. Our findings show that while acceptance of the overall project is generally high, many respondents reject one or more project components. Complementary social project components, like a playground, find less support than purely ecological components. Overall, our research shows that differences in the acceptance of components depend on individual concerns, the quality of communication, attachment to the site, and age. Our results contribute to a better understanding of preferences for river restoration projects and help water managers design restoration projects that are highly accepted by society.","PeriodicalId":49370,"journal":{"name":"Water Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46005982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Water Governance Principles proposed by the OECD contribute to the creation of tangible public policies oriented towards effectiveness, efficiency, reliability and participation. The aim of this research is to apply the OECD Water Governance Indicator Framework at a local level and to identify gaps and challenges for water governance in the General Pueyrredon Municipality (GPM), Buenos Aires Province (BAP), Argentina. This framework was used as a diagnostic tool to assess water governance policy frameworks (what), institutions (who) and instruments (how). In general terms, there is a robust legal framework, there are enforcement institutions regarding water management and there is a good connection with them. However, the main challenges identified were in the ‘how’ since most of the instruments are partly or not implemented.","PeriodicalId":49370,"journal":{"name":"Water Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41630335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a command-and-control administration, a collaborative approach to managing RWS is peculiar. The study addresses this gap by analyzing the relational behavior as a monitoring and enforcement mechanism to ensure community compliance with government-produced institutions for managing RWS. Four focus group interviews were conducted with the CBO members and the survey of households from the same villages. Using the partial-least square structural equation model (PLS-SEM), the mediating influence of frequent communication, commitment of users, and shared meaning on community compliance with institutions was analyzed. The integrated results from the two methods imply that trained CBOs better self-organize, as they communicate frequently with the community members. It is recommended that for the sustainability of the RWS system, regular government support for CBOs underscores the success of collaborative collective action, though trained CBOs better manage RWS in weak monitoring by the government.","PeriodicalId":49370,"journal":{"name":"Water Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49121532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the perspective of the versatility of irrigation water, irrigation benefits are classified as internal or external; the degree of benefit is measured using the proportion of irrigation water per cubic metre of internal and external benefits. This is used as an allocation coefficient to reasonably share prices based on farmers’ water price tolerance, build agricultural water price apportionment and sharing models, and calculate the range of water prices borne by farmers and the government in the Baojixia Irrigation District in the Shaanxi Province of China. Results showed that the apportionment coefficients of farmers and government were 0.85 and 0.15, respectively. For grain crops, the farmers' price range was 0.115–0.508 yuan/m3, while that of the government was 0.516–0.909 yuan/m3; for cash crops, these values were 0.566–3.009 and 0.154–0.458 yuan/m3, respectively.

However, few studies have analysed the impact of vegetation changes on water consumption from the perspective of natural and artificial vegetation to scientifically propose that there is a moderate threshold in vegetation restoration. Taking the Ziya River Basin as an example, the daily meteorological data of 11 meteorological stations from 2001 to 2015 were used to calculate the water consumption of vegetation based on the Penman–Monteith model. The results showed that from 2001 to 2015, the vegetation coverage increased. The total water consumption increased from 2001 (2.60 × 1,010 m3) to 2005 (2.65 × 1,010 m3) and decreased from 2005 (2.65 × 1,010 m3) to 2015 (2.40 × 1,010 m3). The water consumption per unit area in descending order was mixed forests (660 mm, annual average), croplands (640 mm), closed shrublands (581 mm), deciduous broadleaf forests (528 mm), grasslands (514 mm), savannas (459 mm), and woody savannas (454 mm). Finally, the regression equation between vegetation coverage change and water consumption was y = 0.377x + 84.516, which showed that there was a proportional relationship. Therefore, attention should be given to balancing local water allocation during vegetation restoration.

Secondly, the WPTI method is used to simulate and analyze the affordability of farmers of different income levels for agricultural water under the dynamic change of water price standards. Finally, the ELES-WPTI model is applied to the Yinda-Jihuang (YJ) Project, China, to determine the appropriate agricultural water price. The results reveal that the farmers in the DH district have is slightly higher affordability for water price than that in HL District.

It is often assumed that people who reside in a riverine area have adapted to flood pulses. However, in most cases, household-level risk reduction strategies are inadequate for ensuring a livelihood resilient to floods. The objective of this study was to investigate the determinants of households' decisions on coping strategies in the Manafwa catchment, Eastern Uganda. The study was based on a field survey of 210 households supplemented with focused group discussions (6) and key informant interviews (4) conducted in the Butaleja district in March 2019. The study used the protection motivation theory framework and applied the multivariate probit model. The most common short-term coping strategy was building temporary embankments (37%), whereas afforestation (44%) was the most common long-term solution deployed. The determinants that consistently and significantly influenced the choice of coping strategies adopted were: family size, number of adult males in the family, location of the house within the floodplain and time of residence in the affected area (P > 0.05). For policy purposes, this study recommends that the relevant stakeholder interventions should consider these determinants, in order to enhance the adaptive capacity of rural households to flooding.","PeriodicalId":49370,"journal":{"name":"Water Policy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45005574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
