“…Incoherence could exist between different sectors, between climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies, and across administrative borders (Gupta et al., 2013; Shrestha & Dhakal, 2019; Sosa et al., 2018). Such incoherencies can lead to contradictory incentives, responsibilities, and use rights (Kellner et al., 2019). Other obstacles to coordination reside in sectoral planning and implementation procedures (Pahl‐Wostl, 2019a, 2019b); the levels and spatial scales of governance not being adapted to the affected catchment (Newig & Fritsch, 2009; Udall & Overpeck, 2017); the absence of non‐state actors in decision‐making (Benson et al., 2012; McNeill, 2016; Parés et al., 2015); power imbalances between upstream and downstream water users (Anghileri et al., 2013; Cody, 2018; Denaro et al., 2018) as well as between influential, powerful elites and the rural poor (Kuenzer et al., 2013); a lack of or disputed data records (Dombrowsky & Hensengerth, 2018; Never & Stepping, 2018); and a lack of institutional capacity to govern across sectoral boundaries (Benson et al., 2015; OECD, 2011).…”
