@article{Shiklomanov2000AppraisalAA, title={Appraisal and Assessment of World Water Resources}, author={Igor A. Shiklomanov}, journal={Water International}, year={2000}, volume={25}, pages={11 - 32} }
Abstract A critical analysis of the present situation on the global water resources assessment is made. Basic data and methodological approaches used by the author for the assessment and prediction of water resources, water use and water availability on the global scale are briefly described. On the basis of data generalization of the world hydrological network new data are given on the dynamics of renewable water resources of the continents, physiographic and economic regions, selected…
