The DROP governance team developed a Governance Assessment Tool (GAT), which allows the governance setting of a given region for planning and realizing drought adaptation measures to be assessed. Based on this assessment, recommendations can be developed for regional water authorities concerning how to operate most effectively towards increased drought resilience in this context. The GAT has been applied to six regions in Northwest Europe: Twente and Salland in the Netherlands, Eifel-Ruhr in Germany, Brittany in France, Somerset in the United Kingdom, and Flanders in Belgium. These regions are subject to drought aspects related to nature, agriculture and freshwater. This book will aid regional water authorities and other relevant stakeholders interested in governance assessment, whether that context is about water, more specifically about drought or flooding events, or other environmental issues. Further, the GAT can and has also been applied more broadly to a range of governance contexts for water management and beyond. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 23, 2016). 590 SpringerLink|bSpringer Nature Open Access eBooks 650 0 Drought management|zEurope. 650 0 Droughts|zEurope. 650 7 Biochemical engineering.|2bicssc 650 7 Earth sciences, geography, environment, planning.|2bicssc 650 7 Environmental economics.|2bicssc 650 7 Environmental science, engineering & technology.|2bicssc 650 7 Manufacturing industries.|2bicssc 650 7 Pharmaceutical industries.|2bicssc 650 7 Drought management.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01893561 650 7 Droughts.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00898449 651 7 Europe.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01245064 700 1 Bressers, Hans,|eeditor. 700 1 Bressers, Nanny,|eeditor. 700 1 Larrue, Corinne,|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrinted edition:|z9783319296692 914 ocn950259550 994 92|bSTJ
