equivalent (SWE) by around 15 days. This suggests increased chances of late-summer watershortages especially when combined with rapid recent population growth. Less freshwater is likely to be available to flow into the Great Salt Lake, increasing its
Daily observations from automated snowpack telemetry (SNOTEL) stations from within the drainage basin of the Great Salt Lake over the period from 1982 to 2007 are analyzed. The major finding is a shift toward an earlier date of peak snow water

variations in CWP of winter wheat and summer maize in most parts of the study area. They also show certain promotion potential to alleviate the watershortage. Correlation analysis of CWP, crop yield and ET shows that there is great potential for crop yield
This article examines crop water productivity (CWP) of winter wheat and summer maize from 2003 to 2007 in the Haihe River Basin based on large-scale evapotranspiration (ET) and crop yield obtained by remote sensing technology. Results show both
promotion without the growth in irrigation water.

Five types of environmental situation are distinguished and seven groups of main factors are used to identify and classify the critical environmental situation. They are pollution, endemic disease, soil erosion, drought and watershortage, forest
Slum dwellers in India`s mega-cities are exposed to a multitude of risks which threaten their livelihoods every day. In addition hazards such as natural disasters, watershortages or looming expulsion by authorities put their lives at risk

. studied the geographical distribution patterns of vegetable water use efficiency (WUE) and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), and analyzed their relationship with environmental factors. The results suggest that global change would impact the resource use
efficiency of forest ecosystems. However, vegetation could adapt to those changes by increasing the use efficiency of shortage resource while decreasing the relatively ample one. But extreme impacts, such as heavy nitrogen deposition, would break this trade
