Universidad de Zaragoza Implementing integrated water resources management in the Ebro River Basin: From theory to facts 2015 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted In this article, we analyze how successful the implementation of Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) in the Ebro river catchment (in Spain) has been. Our main aim is to show some gaps between theory and practice. This implies analyzing the political dimensions of governance and their change and reflecting on the interface between governance and technical knowledge about water. We highlight problems, such as the lack of institutional coordination, blind spots in technical information and path dependences. Actual water management has led to plans for further irrigation even though water availability is, and is expected to continue, shrinking due to climate change and other local factors. To overcome these mismatches, we propose further synchronization, innovative ways of public participation and knowledge sharing between institutions and researchers. As a showcase, we portray a practical real example of a desirable institutional arrangement in one sub-catchment. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/ECO2010-14929 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/ECO2013-41353-P info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 1.343 2015 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES 146 / 225 = 0.649 2015 Q3 T2 GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 5 / 6 = 0.833 2015 Q4 T3 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES 62 / 104 = 0.596 2015 Q3 T2 GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 23 / 30 = 0.767 2015 Q4 T3 0.482 2015 Geography, Planning and Development 2015 Q2 Renewable Energy, Sustainability and the Environment 2015 Q2 Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law 2015 Q2 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion (orcid)0000-0001-7517-0053 Cazcarro, I. 4000 415 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
