Urban water systems: Development of micro-level indicators to support integrated policy.

ABSTRACT: Urban water systems involve complex interactions between ecological, social and economic factors. Integrated management approaches are needed to achieve multiple policy objectives in the sector and can be pursued at a range of spatial scales.
