Explanation:
97% of the water on the Earth is salt water and only three percent is fresh water; slightly over two thirds of this is frozen in glaciers and polar ice caps. The remaining unfrozen freshwater is found mainly as groundwater, with only a small fraction present above ground or in the air.
Integrated Water Resources Management
Water stress, droughts and floods, including impact of climate change.
Catchment management and ecosystem services on different scales.
Large-scale nature-based solutions and biodiversity.
Water rights, trading and partnerships.
