6 FAQs about [Water storage project]

What is storage in water management?

Storage is part of a larger system of water resource management tools for managing resilience. Storage systems are one tool that water managers have for providing numerous services to societies (present and future) as well as for managing the resource (e.g. in relation to floods, droughts, and water quality) to protect communities.

Why do we need water resources management & water storage?

Throughout history, water resources management and water storage have provided critical tools for building resilience and laying the foundations for sustainable development. Stored water can be used for many purposes such as a wide range of productive services as well as for managing floods, droughts, storm surges, and other catastrophic events.

Do water resources management measures affect land water storage?

Several water resources management measures have been implemented in recent decades to alleviate groundwater depletion, maintain ecological resilience, and sustain agricultural production. This study aims to investigate their impacts on land water storage, and thus obtain a picture of the spatio-temporal variation of water resources over the NCP.

Why do we need water storage projects?

It is essential to engage with these communities and address their concerns, ensuring that their rights are respected and that they are adequately compensated for their displacement. Additionally, water storage projects can provide opportunities for economic development, such as job creation and increased agricultural productivity.

Can natural storage improve water resource management?

In principle, natural storage (or more broadly nature-based solutions – NBS) has the potential to tackle many water resource management challenges, simultaneously contributing to both climate mitigation and climate adaptation and delivering multiple co-benefits for people and nature (UN, 2018).

How do water storage projects affect local communities?

Water storage projects have wide-ranging economic and social implications. They require significant investments in infrastructure, maintenance, and operation. These projects also affect local communities, particularly if they involve land acquisition, resettlement, or cultural heritage sites.
