A research team of faculty and graduate students examines two large river systems with rapidly growing populations and economies based on irrigated agriculture. The key question is: How will the main reservoirs in Euphrates-Tigris and Rio Grande/Bravo cope with increased drought and shrinking water supply? Chapters include 8 reservoir assessments and reviews of inter-state and international agreements on water sharing. The book concludes with a measurable definition of the sustainability of engineered rivers.
