“…In the end, all definitions are based on the same fundamental ideas and more or less contain the same features: All definitions describe water governance as a system, process or a mechanism to manage and develop water recourses. While a lot of research has been carried out on water governance (Rogers and Hall 2003, Tropp, 2007, Tortajada 2010a, 2010b, Lautze et al 2011, Hartmann and Spit 2014, water governance in the Netherlands (van Buuren et al 2010;OECD 2014) and on the Principles on Water Governance (Akhmouch and Clavreul 2016, Akhmouch and Correia 2016).…”

The past two decades have witnessed increasing global concern about the need for sustainable water and land management in an era of rapid change, and persistent water insecurity. Good water governance is a prerequisite to improve water management all over the world. The OECD Water Governance Initiative developed Water Governance Principles to enhance the process from water policy design to implementation. This contribution aims to examine how the OECD Water Governance Principles fit actual water governance on the local scale. Therefore a Dutch case is employed here to almost serve as a benchmark test for the framework of the OECD water governance principles.

“…In the special issue on frontiers of land and water governance in urban regions, Hartmann and Spit (2014) suggest a more differentiated governance approach. Since the well-established and well-rehearsed institutional governance approaches of land and water cannot cope with the increasing interactions, differentiation along the physical border of land and water could lead to more differentiation and tailor-made solutions that do justice to the specific governance challenge at hand.…”

“…Land use has had impacts on water, but also water governance has influenced land use (Räsänen et al, 2018;van der Brugge, Rotmans, & Loorbach, 2005). Since both land and water are scarce, they need to be properly managed (Hartmann & Spit, 2014). For instance, agriculture is the biggest consumer of water and occupies large areas of land (Calder, 2005).…”

“…Building upon the analytical framework developed in a special issue on frontiers of land and water governance, this paper uses the concept in order to explore more tailor-made governance arrangements (Hartmann & Spit, 2014). To make the analytical concept of 'governance frontiers' clear, it is vital to distinguish between a frontier and a boundary.…”

Contemporary water-governance approaches lack an understanding of the differences revealed when land and water governance interact. Conflicts arise because the spatial component is less regarded in water-governance approaches. This explorative paper introduces an analytical framework for the common management of land and water along three frontiers: the vertical frontier concerns the interaction between subsurface groundwater and land uses on the surface; the horizontal frontier refers to coastlines or riverfronts; and the fluent frontier is about inundations and flood events. Rather than a panacea for all governance issues, this paper proposes a more differentiated perspective on integrative watergovernance approaches. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…Ein durch die Verwaltung des Biosphärenreservats gesteuerter Prozess ist elementar. Viele "Ad-hoc"-Lösungen setzen auf technische Maßnahmen, sind langfristig wenig zielführend (Hartmann/Spit 2014) Zum Auenverbundprojekt an der unteren Mittelelbe vgl. http://www.bund-niedersachsen.de/projekte_einrichtungen/einrichtungen/burg_lenzen/ projekt_auenentwicklung_und_auenverbund/ (23.05.2016) auf einer "unnatürlichen", da menschenverursachten Grundlage beruhen -gegebenenfalls Neubewertungen erfahren (von Haaren/Galler 2011; von Haaren/Palmas/Siewert et al 2014; Mosbrugger/Brasseur/Schaller et al 2014).…”

Zusammenfassung Der Umgang mit den Folgen des Klimawandels stellt Biosphärenreservate als Modellregionen für nachhaltige Entwicklung vor neue Herausforderungen. Obwohl Einflüsse auf Ökosysteme oder Landschaften nur begrenzt steuerbar und schwer absehbar sind, besteht der Auftrag, Klimawandelfolgen strategisch aufzugreifen. Zudem sind zahlreiche Akteure mit unterschiedlichen Perspektiven in Entscheidungen einzubeziehen, die vor dem Hintergrund unsicherer Zukunftsprognosen getroffen werden müssen. Der Beitrag zeigt am Beispiel des UNESCO-Biosphärenreservates Flusslandschaft Elbe-Brandenburg, welche konkreten Handlungsfelder sich abzeichnen und welche Arbeitsphasen ein planvoller Umgang mit dem Klimawandel haben kann. Es werden mögliche Maßnahmen für die Themen Landschaftswasserhaushalt, Vegetation, Fauna und Landnutzung aufgezeigt. An der Elbe kommt dem Flussgebietsmanagement eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Die Diskussion möglicher strategischer Handlungsfelder erläutert, welche Rollen die Verwaltung von Biosphärenreservaten in einem Prozess der Anpassung an den Klimawandel einnehmen kann. Die Möglichkeiten und der Umfang, in dem sich Biosphärenreservate zu Modellregionen für die Anpassung an den Klimawandel entwickeln, werden sich in der Praxis nach den vorhandenen Kapazitäten und der Expertise richten.
