• Global unsustainable virtual water flows in agricultural trade (2019, background): “Indeed, irrigation water withdrawals may also deplete freshwater stocks (both surface water bodies and aquifers) when their abstraction rates exceed those of natural recharge (Wada et al 2010, Famiglietti 2014, AghaKouchak et al 2015, Richey et al 2015, Rodell et al 2018,Wang et al 2018).”
• Groundwater sustainability: a review of the interactions between science and policy (2020, background): “Yet as a common pool resource that sustains humans and ecosystems (Ostrom 1990), groundwater is often subject to unsustainable levels of exploitation and depletion (Custodio 2002, Rodell et al 2018, Bierkens andWada 2019, de Graaf et al 2019).”
• Non-renewable groundwater use and groundwater depletion: a review (2019, methodology): “…of volume-based estimates Konikow (2011) Using head observations to assess groundwater depletion Scanlon et al (2012b),MacDonald et al (2016) UsingGRACE to asses large-scale groundwater depletion Rodell et al (2009), Tiwari et al (2009), Scanlon et al (2016), Rodell et al (2018) 33 Environ.”
• Compound natural and human disasters: Managing drought and COVID-19 to sustain global agriculture and food sectors (2020, background): “Adaptation strategies must address the likely increased frequencyand severity of droughts with climate change (Rodell et al., 2018; Mukherjee et al., 2018, 2020).”
• GRACE-REC: a reconstruction of climate-driven water storage changes over the last century (2019, background): “…are expected because the reconstruction does not represent several sources of long-term changes in TWS, including for instance, land ice melt, dams, anthropogenic water depletion (Reager et al., 2016; Felfelani et al., 2017; Rodell et al., 2018), or long-term changes in evaporative demand.”
• Closing the yield gap while ensuring water sustainability (2018, background): “In these regions, irrigation is depleting groundwater stocks (Konikow and Kendy 2005,Wada et al 2010, Gleeson et al 2012, Scanlon et al 2012, Famiglietti 2014, Rodell et al 2018) and diminishing environmental flows (Brauman et al 2016, Mekonnen andHoekstra 2016, Jägermeyr et al 2017).”
• Global virtual water trade and the hydrological cycle: patterns, drivers, and socio-environmental impacts (2019, background): “Therefore, we are living in what has been described as an era of water scarcity in which water resources available to agriculture may limit the planet’s ability to meet the growing crop demand by human societies (Falkenmark and Rockstrom 2004, D’Odorico et al 2018, Rodell et al 2018).”
