The effect of policy incoherence on the emergence of groundwater-related subsidence phenomena: a case study from Iran

open access: greenWater International, 2022
Land subsidence due to overexploitation of aquifers is often attributed to incoherent public policies. Taking the case of the Mahyar valley in Iran as an example, and based on a mixed-method research design, this study analyses the effects of policy incoherence on well use for agricultural irrigation and the resulting groundwater levels.
