Preliminary Assessment of Water Scarcity
Water scarcity in years 2005, 2050, and 2095 at the 14-GCAM regions due to changing water demands; total water supply (renewable water + desalinated water) are assumed fixed to 2005 levels to capture the effect of demand projection alone on water scarcity; the error-bars represent the range of values based on the six SSP scenarios; WSI values above 0.4 are considered severely stressed regions

Future Research Directions
Allocating water among competing water users
and technology choices (two-way feedback)
Climate change impacts on water demands
Enhance the existing representations of the
global hydrologic model and demand sectors in
GCAM
Accounting for non-renewable water sources,
e.g., desalinated water and non-renewable (fossil)
groundwater
