Book Description
"Watershed partnerships are institutional entities defined by bioregional boundaries. They offer an opportunity to identify regionally specific freshwater needs and concerns, and provide information critical to resource agency decision-making. Changes to the freshwater system are inextricably linked to changes in the human system such as water consumption for household and industrial use, as well as through indirect drivers such as climate change. Alaska's position in the arctic and subarctic, where these changes are magnified and often poorly understood, creates a significant challenge to developing and adopting policies that are flexible enough to accommodate changes in the arctic ecosystem, and rigorous enough to avoid freshwater allocation conflicts experienced elsewhere in the world. Watershed partnerships provide a critical link between understanding changes at the local and regional scale and developing new policies able to adapt to future changes and demands for freshwater"--Leaf iii.
