In the existing 276 international river basins, the increase in water variability projected by most climate change scenarios may present serious challenges to riparian states.This research maps the institutional resilience to water variability in transboundary basins and combines it with both historic and projected variability regimes, with the objective of...
The Transboundary Freshwater Dispute Database provides a framework for quantitative, global-scale explorations of the relationship between freshwater resources and international cooperation and conflict. Projects were designed to test common theories linking freshwater resources to cooperation and conflict, in particular within the context of geography and environmental security. The projects, which...
In the policy literature and the popular press, the issues of water and conflict are
being raised together with increasing frequency. Geographic, international relations, and

natural resources, spatial relationships, and war or acute conflict. Little quantitative or
global-scale research exists,...
