Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Worldwide, irrigation water consumes the bulk of renewable fresh water resources. As water demand increases with rising living standards and population growth, and as prospects for water diversion (extraction) are limited in some regions and nonexistent in others, the course of water policy left open is to increase efficiency of water use. This requires taking account of the full cost of water and the way to achieve this goal inevitably leads to some form of water pricing. Yet, water policy makers and economists are far from agreeing on what constitutes the "right" price of water in any given circumstance and how this price is to be charged. This paper aims to clarify and reconcile some of the conflicting views by discussing the economic aspects underlying irrigation water pricing and their implementation in practice.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
