Carmen Revenga This CD provides maps of land cover, population density and biodiversity for 154 basins and sub-basins around the world. It lists indicators and variables for each of these basins and, where appropriate, provides links and references to relevant information. It further contains 20 global maps portraying relevant water resources issues. The Watershed of the World-CD is produced by the Water Resources eAtlas, a joint project of WRI, IUCN–The World Conservation Union, the International Water Management Institute, and the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands. The project aims to make freshwater information available so that managers, policy makers, and non-governmental organizations can participate in deciding about water resource management and allocation. Other contributing partners are BirdLife International, the IUCN Water and Nature Initiative, Wetlands International, the Center for Applied Biodiversity Science of Conservation International, the IUCN Species Survival Commission, the CGIAR Challenge Program in Water and Food, and the Comprehensive Assessment of Water Management in Agriculture. |
