Water resiliency in an Urban-Agricultural System a cost effectiveness analysis and application to a Mediterranean region 1: Universidad de Cordoba, Spain; 2: Universidad de Granada, Spain; 3: Universidad de Bari, Italy The study employs a stochastic modelling framework to evaluate cost-effectiveness of urban network leakage reduction under climate uncertainty. Probabilistic pattern of the water supply system based on hydrological inflow timeseries is simulated. The cost is measured both by financial variables (water treatment, network depreciation and maintenance and by urban welfare loss due to shortages and profit loss in agricultural sector. The model is tested to the drought-prone multipurpose reservoir system of Granada (Southern Spain) that exhibits the complexity and context-specific nature of water management under Mediterranean climate conditions. Leak reduction emerges as a cost-effective solution in Granada water system, tough at a striving leakage rate of 12.7%. The proposed framework enables robust evaluation also of other water policy (e.g. water reuse), as well policy mixing, for enhancing urban drought resiliency. | |
