Typology of GDASEsWhy?Build management strategies that are type-specific
Developing a typology… • Setting the right objectives when combining groundwater development & management strategies in conjunction with ESSs • Scenario building as a consequence of the typology of situations and interventions • Opportunities in different scenarios could drive the strategies and interventions at different scales
A time-line (or loop?) Build strategies that are type-specific
Timing of recharge cf depletion Agro-ecology Population Macro-economic policy framework Macro Legal and institutional framework Level of groundwater development Hydrogeological settings Social history Cultural capital Risk reduction
Typology of contexts • Macroeconomic ; legal /institutional Typology of local situations • Physical – resource and ecosystem • Human use (agro-ecology and degree of use) • Social and cultural capital
Situations (by aquifer type) Human use ESS Kuznet's curve?
Situations Livelihoods Ess &ESSs)
Aquifer types • Highly dynamic • Dynamic • Static Confined vs unconfined • Alluvial • Sedimentary • (soft and hard) • Volcanic • Crystalline • Lateritic Structure / topography dominated (eg mountain)
Situations Human use ESS Kuznet's curve?
Contexts • Description rather than typology? • eg Australia – strong institutional and legal setting; tradable water rights; implementation through strong state agencies • South Africa – strong legal framework, explicit water rights for ecosystems; implementation through weaker local government • Sri Lanka -
