| description |
Environmental flows are central to
equitable distribution of and access to water and services
provided by aquatic ecosystems. They refer to the quality,
quantity, and timing of water flows required maintaining the
components, functions, processes and resilience of aquatic
ecosystems that provide goods and services to people. They
are fundamental for sustainable water resources development,
benefits sharing, and poverty alleviation. Nonetheless,
water resources development planners have often overlooked
environmental flows or addressed them inadequately. This
two-part report, based on the Bank's economic sector
analysis, shows their central importance for Integrated
Water Resource Management (IWRM) and presents data,
findings, and recommendations, based on in-depth case study
analysis, to help make environmental water allocation an
integral part of IWRM. |
