Water-related articles posted on SSRN within the last month

At the beginning of this year, I started a project listing, at the beginning of each month, all land use articles posted on SSRN in the previous month.  I am now beginning a similar monthly project, which is to list--on the 15th of each month--all water-related articles posted to SSRN within the previous month.  In other words, on May 15 (today), I am posting all water-related articles posted to SSRN from April 16 through May 15.  I am adding this to the blog in recognition that many land use scholars are writing about water issues, as the list below makes clear, and so it seems a list of water-related articles is a natural addition to the blog and a useful way to keep people informed of what's doing. 

As always, I want to be transparent in how the lists are generated.  The land use articles list is generated using the term "land use" in the SSRN database, while the water articles list is generated using the term "water" in the SSRN database.  I welcome your comments on this addition to the blog, or recommendations for other land use-related lists of use.

Without further ado, here are water-related articles posted to SSRN within the last month.  Note:  I have excerpted several articles that the search turned up that were not, in substance, addressing water-related issues:
