Summary: The benefits of water reuse in urban water management systems have not been fully realized. Integrating water reuse with wider assets in water resource or drainage and wastewater management plans can lead to optimal implementation. This paper explores the perspectives of water resource and wastewater management planners and highlights the need for collaborative partnerships and regulatory support to include water reuse technologies in current and future plans. It also emphasizes the importance of considering wider benefits and societal acceptance in incentivized water reuse schemes.

Summary: Due to climate change, water shortages will affect 2/3 of the world's population by 2025, while a 50% increase in food production is needed by 2050 to feed nine billion people. Anthropogenic activities have also resulted in increased water pollution. Wastewater reuse for irrigation is a global solution, but it can lead to soil pollution and heavy metal accumulation. This study discusses the status of water availability, wastewater treatment and reuse, and potential health risks in China, emphasizing the need for proper treatment to mitigate adverse impacts on human health and the environment.

Summary: The availability of freshwater is becoming a serious threat globally due to rapid industrialization, urbanization, and population growth, with factors such as excessive groundwater extraction, reduced recharge, and water pollution exacerbating the water crisis. Despite the high volume of wastewater generated in India, the potential for water reuse is often squandered due to limited research and guidance, as well as an unreliable institutional framework.

Summary: Assessment of geothermal resources is a vital and challenging task in the utilization of geothermal resources. The objective of this study is to estimate the natural thermal water discharge and recoverable thermal water mass flow rates using an express method, and evaluate the geothermal water and energy resources. The results show that the geothermal field should be divided into three sections to calculate hot water resources, and the main controlling fault zones are identified. The total mass flow rates of recoverable thermal water are found to be 49.32 kg/s, with the Reshuiwei section being suitable for comprehensive utilization of underground hot water. The recoverable heat rates reached 15.031 MW, and the reservoir temperature potential of the Reshuiwei geothermal field is estimated to be about 182.95 degrees Celsius. The conclusions drawn from this study would provide a reference for geothermal resources assessment in all geothermal fields.

Summary: Water resources play a crucial role in the economy and environment, and ensuring an optimal amount of water at different levels is necessary. Hydrotechnical infrastructure, such as reservoirs, can be used to control water flow. This study compared the water flow in the Glowna River in Poland before and after the construction of the Kowalski Reservoir. The results showed a decreasing trend in monthly flow and maximum flow after the construction of the reservoir, indicating its effectiveness in stabilizing water flow. However, there was no significant change in minimum flow. The findings are important for understanding the impact of reservoir construction on water circulation.

Summary: In this work, the authors compare and synthesize the log10-reduction targets (LRTs) for pathogens in onsite non-potable water systems (ONWS) to inform the selection of pathogen LRTs. The results show that there were minor differences in LRTs for human enteric viruses and parasitic protozoa between 2017 and 2021 efforts, despite differences in pathogen characterization methods. The greatest differences were observed in stormwater due to the use of municipal wastewater data and different reference pathogens.

Summary: The study shows that in the Tibetan Plateau, high snow cover at high elevations weakens the strengthening of positive feedback, resulting in a reversed warming pattern above and below 5000 meters in altitude. Additionally, the presence of snow and glaciers induces a negative feedback by buffering effects that consume or reflect energy, and further decreases in snow cover and glacier extent at high elevations may amplify warming on the Tibetan Plateau.

Summary: Groundwater inflow plays a critical role in maintaining the water balance of lakes on the Tibetan Plateau. Our study reveals that endorheic lakes in the western Tibetan Plateau experience significant water level increase during the ice-covered period, which is attributed to substantial groundwater inflow. This inflow is likely associated with large-scale active faults in the limestone bedrock and abundant meltwater from high elevations.

Summary: The climate of High Mountain Asia (HMA) has been changing in recent decades, with increasing temperatures and inconsistent precipitation changes. This study used daily ERA5 reanalysis data to explore changes in climate variables in HMA along the full altitudinal range. The results showed winter warming and summer wetting dominating in the interior part of HMA, with significant increasing trends in heatwave occurrences and heavy precipitation in certain areas. The changes in climatic extremes indicate potential increases in hazards such as floods, landslides, and droughts, impacting economic production and infrastructure.

Summary: The Hindu Kush-Karakoram-Himalayan system, known as the Third Pole, is the largest global store of frozen water after the polar regions. It provides water supply to almost 2 billion people. However, atmospheric warming has caused an imbalance in this system, altering water resources in downstream countries. Future predictions suggest that global warming will amplify this imbalance, alleviating water scarcity in some regions while increasing it in others.

Summary: The water resources in the upstream Indus Basin, originating from the mountains, are crucial for the densely populated plains in the lower Indus Basin. This study quantifies the comparative impact of future water usage in the upper Indus on downstream water availability, considering climate change and socio-economic development. The results show that water consumption and pressure on water resources will vary across seasons and sub-basins in the upper Indus, leading to reduced water availability in the lower Indus during the dry season. This study highlights the importance of considering socio-economic changes in the upper Indus and anticipating competition between upstream and downstream riparian states in long-term water management.

Summary: High-resolution climate data is crucial for predicting regional climate and water environment changes. In this study, a two-step downscaling method was developed to enhance the spatial resolution of GCM data and improve the accuracy for small basins. The method combined medium-resolution climate data with high-resolution topographic data to capture spatial and temporal details. The downscaled climate data were then used to simulate the impacts of climate change on hydrology and water quality in a small basin. The results demonstrated the effectiveness of the downscaling method for spatially differentiated simulations.

Summary: Precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau is influenced by systems such as the Asian monsoons, the westerlies, and local circulations. The Indian monsoon, the westerlies, and local circulations are the main systems affecting precipitation over the entire Tibetan Plateau. The East Asian summer monsoon primarily affects the eastern Tibetan Plateau. The Indian monsoon has the greatest influence on precipitation in the southern and central grid cells, while the westerlies have the greatest influence on precipitation in the northern and western grid cells. Local circulations have the strongest influence on the central and eastern grid cells.
