We develop policy tools and instruments for planning and managing river basins.
Our ultimate goal is to increase the productivity of water by identifying efficient allocation policies between the different water users including the environment. To achieve this we develop integrated economic-hydrologic models based on advanced stochastic optimization techniques. Policy instruments are also developed to make sure that the efficient allocation policies are socially acceptable and to promote cooperation between water users. For example, we assess upstream/downstream monetary compensations from the optimal allocation policies and the economic information obtained with the optimization model.
