“…We should note, however, that Katz [53] questions its relevance for designing water strategies, whilst Expósito, et al [54,55] cannot find evidence of the EKC for household water consumption in the municipalities of the Guadalquivir River Basin. Finally, it is important to mention Pastor and Fullerton [56] who warn of the need to carry out a detailed analysis of the time properties of the variables, given that this can condition the use of the most appropriate econometric method.…”

This paper studies the regional consumption of household water in Spain in the period 2000–2018. The use of the methodology proposed by Phillips and Sul allows us to conclude that there is no single pattern of behavior across the Spanish regions. By contrast, we can determine the existence of three convergence clubs, confirming serious regional disparities in water consumption. Navarra, País Vasco, La Rioja, and Cataluña are included in the convergence club that shows the lowest levels of household water consumption, while the Islas Canarias, Comunidad Valenciana, Castilla y León and Cantabria belong to that with the highest consumption. The determinants of the forces that drive these convergence clubs are difficult to identify because the demographic, economic and structural variables of the network interact in different ways. Nevertheless, we can select a group of explanatory variables that help to explain the formation of the convergence clubs. These are regional household income, the birth rate in the regions, and the regional spending on environmental protection. Increments in the levels of these variables are helpful for reducing household water consumption.

“…The core of the Granger test involves establishing a Vector Auto Regression (VAR) model. To conduct a two-variable Granger causality test, at least one of the following two conditions needs to be fulfilled: firstly, both variables are smooth series; secondly, the two variables are characterized by a cointegration relationship [30]. If both prerequisites are unmet, the Granger causality test's conclusions become unreliable.…”

Early warning of safety risks downstream of small reservoirs is directly related to the safety of people’s lives and property and the economic and social development of the region. The lack of data and low collaboration in downstream safety management of small reservoirs makes the existing safety risk warning methods for small reservoirs no longer fully applicable. The data from flood control and drought relief departments, small reservoir operation and management departments, etc., are used comprehensively. A machine learning model suitable for a large number of samples, a small amount of data, and the condition of incomplete information is applied and innovated, and from the holistic perspective of ‘upstream reservoir—downstream region’, the safety risk factors of the upstream reservoir are identified with the help of the Granger causality test. The risk losses of the disaster behavior are predicted with the three-dimensional k~ε two-equation model coupled with the VOF (Volume of fluid) method and the neural network model. The safety risk dynamics prediction, the prediction of the disaster-causing environment, and the prediction of the risk losses are integrated to construct the early warning method of the downstream safety risk of small reservoirs, and the simulation effect is verified with the example of the J Reservoir. The results show that the model can clarify the causal relationships and time lag dependencies between hydro-meteorological factors and the water level of small reservoirs, and calculate the inundation depth, inundation range, and flood velocity downstream of small reservoirs. The downstream safety warning model of small reservoirs constructed in this article can effectively integrate upstream and downstream information, further improve the timeliness and accuracy of warning, and provide a reference for downstream safety risk management of small reservoirs.
