1
Basin scale hydrology scenarios to explore Green Water Credits opportunities Peter Droogers, SEI
2
Questions to be answered What is the present delivery and use of green and blue water? What is the potential incremental green and blue water gains?
3
Why models? Understand current water resources Understand past water resources Options for future - technical - - socio-economic - - policy oriented Trend Past Today Future Remote Sensing Observations Analysis Statistics Models ? Data Information Knowledge Policies
4
Why modeling tools Modeling Understanding processes Understanding processes Scenario analysis (what, if) Scenario analysis (what, if) Green Water Credits Proof of GWC sellers delivery Proof of GWC sellers delivery e.g. less sedimentation, more blue water deliverede.g. less sedimentation, more blue water delivered Proof of GWC buyers benefits Proof of GWC buyers benefits e.g. less siltation, more hydropower generation, more relibale drinking watere.g. less siltation, more hydropower generation, more relibale drinking water
