TL;DR: Future EA-based applications to real-world problems require a fundamental shift of focus towards improving problem formulations, understanding general theoretic frameworks for problem decompositions, major advances in EA computational efficiency, and most importantly aiding real decision-making in complex, uncertain application contexts.

TL;DR: In this article, a community initiative to identify major unsolved scientific problems in hydrology motivated by a need for stronger harmonisation of research efforts is described. But despite the diversity of the participants (230 scientists in total), the process revealed much about community priorities and the state of our science: a preference for continuity in research questions rather than radical departures or redirections from past and current work.

TL;DR: Some pros and cons of adopting Bns for water resource planning and management are analyzed by framing their use within the context of a participatory and integrated planning procedure, and exploring how they can be integrated with other types of models.

TL;DR: There are at least 1.2 million instream barriers in 36 European countries, 68 per cent of which are structures less than two metres in height that are often overlooked, and the main predictors of barrier density are agricultural pressure, density of river-road crossings, extent of surface water and elevation.

TL;DR: This manuscript is the first comprehensive review of the literature in this quickly evolving water research domain and contributes a general framework for the classification of residential water demand modeling studies, which allows revising consolidated approaches, describing emerging trends, and identifying potential future developments.
