China's water scarcity. (2009, background): “bound of water stress at 1700 m3 per capita per year (or 4658 L per capita per day) (Johnson et al., 2001), available water levels can be extremely low at local areas such as the 3-H basin.”
Assigning priority to environmental policy interventions in a heterogeneous world (2003, background): “The use of conservation contracts to achieve water quality objectives is becoming an increasingly popular policy tool (Johnson, Revenga, and Echeverria, 2001).”
Global alteration of freshwaters: influences on human and environmental well-being (2011, methodology): “…water-resource development (e.g., Bunn and Arthington 2002; Bernhardt et al. 2006), to devise practical approaches for a balancing water uses (e.g., Johnson et al. 2001; IWMI (International Water Management Institute) 2006; Arthington et al. 2010; Poff et al. 2010), to conserve the earth’s…”
A Theoretical Analysis of Economic Incentive Policies Encouraging Agricultural Water Conservation (2003, background): “First, irrigated agriculture accounts for about 70% of total water withdrawals (Johnson et al., 2001), and 60–80% of total consumptive water use (Tiwari & Dinar, 2001), in producing about 40% of the world’s food crops.”
