In addition, it explores the factors that influence regional water footprint in the spatial sequence via the extended STIRPAT model. Highlighting the utilization of WF accounting in sustainable water management, one of the book’s goals is to establish the optimization model of water allocation in various industrial sectors. Based on WF accounting, which thoroughly considers the water input for production, the relevant intermediate water inputs, and the water amount for wastewater discharge dilutions, the book provides a wealth of insights for scholars and practitioners with an interest in water resources and environmental management. In addition, it exhibits a scientific plan for regional water resource utilization and allocation, helping relieve regional water shortages.Sustainable developmentEnvironmental managementAquatic ecology Water pollutionSustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/215000Freshwater & Marine Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19066Waste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollutionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040Sustainable development.Environmental management.Aquatic ecology .Water pollution.Sustainable Development.Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Management.Freshwater & Marine Ecology.Waste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution.551.4Xu Mengauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut935376Li Chunhuiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910366633003321Application of the Water Footprint: Water Stress Analysis and Allocation2106917UNINA
