Citations in the corpus

• Virtual Water: A Helpful Perspective, but not a Sufficient Policy Criterion (2010, background): “Guan and Hubacek (2007) examine the current movement of agricultural products between northern and southern China, with the goal of determining whether or not the data reflect implementation of a virtual water trading strategy.”
• Global virtual water trade and the hydrological cycle: patterns, drivers, and socio-environmental impacts (2019, background): “In those countries internal redistribution of food and the attached virtual water can be significant and some studies have begun to examine this internal flow of virtual water (Guan and Hubacek 2007, Dang et al 2015).”
• Interprovincial two-stage water resource utilization efficiency under environmental constraint and spatial spillover effects in China (2017, background): “Water resources have become a key restricting factor influencing socioeconomic development and urbanization in China (Tomohiro et al., 2006; Guan and Hubacek, 2007).”
• “Virtual water”: An unfolding concept in integrated water resources management (2007, background): “A number of studies have suggested transferring virtual water to alleviate the regional water stresses [Yang and Zehnder, 2001; Ma et al., 2005; Zhao et al., 2005; Yang and Zehnder, 2005; Guan and Hubacek, 2007].”
• Drivers of the virtual water trade (2014, methodology): “A ‘‘top-down’’ approach based on Input-Output matrices is typically applied in that field [e.g., Daniels et al., 2011], where water management data are associated to industrial sectors and downscaled according to the economic value of products [see, e.g., Guan and Hubacek, 2007].”
• Embodied energy use in China's industrial sectors (2012, background): “…consumption and related environmental impacts can be explicitly determined by the input–output relationship described by Leontief and its extension to cover environmental impacts (e.g., Duchin, 2009; Feng et al., 2009, 2010; Guan and Hubacek, 2007, 2008; Hubacek et al., 2009; Weber et al., 2008).”
• Assessing regional and global water footprints for the UK (2010, methodology): “Recently, Guan and Hubacek (2007) extended the concept of virtual water flows to all goods and services when evaluating the regional trade structure and its influences on water consumption and pollution via virtual water flows in China.”
