“…An example is the Yorkshire Integrated Catchment Solutions Program (iCASP) in the United Kingdom (Richardson et al, 2021). iCASP was initiated in 2017 with funding of US $7 million from the UK Natural Environment Research Council to provide environmental, societal and economic impacts through embedding existing science into codeveloped projects between academic and non-academic partners, creating new tools and a greater shared understanding of potential solutions to water issues (Richardson et al, 2021). iCASP focusses on the Ouse River Basin, located in Yorkshire in northern England which has a drainage area of 10 770 km 2 before it merges with the River iCASP brings together over 190 institutions including universities, national and local governmental agencies, businesses, nonprofit organizations, water companies, trade associations, community groups and other local stakeholders to form a partnership to determine solutions for the basin.…”

“…Working with the partners, through co-design, co-production, and co-dissemination, iCASP also aims to produce transferable and scalable outputs for use elsewhere. As the program has progressed we have seen enhanced science-user engagement, policy formation and implementation, and practical benefits (Richardson et al, 2021). In turn, this work has led to new business cases for investment in on-the-ground river basin solutions (e.g., for invasive species, natural flood management schemes, green and blue infrastructure to enhance human wellbeing, soil health and drought resilience) being developed for funding by national or regional governments, or from consortia of other organizations (Richardson et al, 2021).…”

“…Despite these challenges, recent advancements offer good potential for WS to be taken forward. While there is still room for technological development, observations of climate, hydrology, carbon, nutrient and energy fluxes, land use/cover, water quality, and socioeconomic metrics, are often systematically collected, interrogated and disseminated, with ever increasing amounts of open data and associated analysis tools (Bierkens, 2015; He & James, 2021; Richardson et al, 2021). Examples of watershed‐based management are available globally, and while the structure and authority of river basin governance varies a lot, there are increasing numbers of platforms for participatory decision making among stakeholders that allow for shared future foresight and adaptive management.…”

As it is user‐driven, iCASP serves as a model of bringing academia, civic society and industry together to generate transformative change (https://icasp.org.uk/about/).…”

While there have been advancements in hydrological science and water resources management, the world continues to face a water‐supply crisis. In light of studies that report the missing links to be (i) effective collaborations between researchers and practitioners and (ii) interdisciplinary working, we promote the benefits of Watershed Science to address these gaps. Watershed Science incorporates basin hydrology, determines water resource thresholds, promotes water governance that forms partnerships between institutions, and enacts participatory decision making in water resources management. However, such partnerships must recognize the differential power and interests of different actors to ensure that outcomes are not skewed in favour of particular interests. It adds value to existing water management programs and has great potential for bringing disciplines and decision making together to address the global water crisis.
