Using environmental flows to inform integrated water resource management in critically water scarce regions

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 17, Issue 8, December 2024.
Abstract Environmental flows (e‐flows) assessments are a powerful mechanism for enhancing and conserving the ecosystem goods and services rivers provide while allocating water to essential human use. There is a paucity of e‐flows assessments and implementation in water scarce regions such as the Middle East, where limited freshwater resources are under
