As water is a complex resource essential to human life and numerous activities, which largely departs from the characteristics of both public and private good, governance around its allocation and reallocation for different uses is not trivial. This explains why specific institutions have historically emerged to manage the resource or resolve conflicts arising from the multiple uses that compete with each other. It would be the case of the Water Court of Valencia or the Hydrographic Confederations. These specific institutions must interact with the traditional administration (in Spain, the central government, the autonomous communities and local bodies, which interact in a complex map of competences) and with private or mixed operators where appropriate, as well as with communities of irrigators, operators of energy conversion plants and other groups. The recurring drought episodes in Spain and Catalonia, more frequent and intense as a result of climate change, suggest the importance of thoroughly analyzing how the existing institutions have dealt with these episodes, and detecting dysfunctions and aspects to be strengthened. Climate change, in fact, amplifies a pre-existing phenomenon in much of the territory: drought is the acute manifestation of a structural challenge (long-term water scarcity), therefore, the institutional framework that addresses it it is as important as technological advances or investments to deal with it. Our contribution will make proposals along the lines of a federal improvement of the existing institutional framework, with a special focus on Catalonia, but with a Spanish and European perspective as well, to deal with the risk of drought, specific drought events and to advance the water security in a context of inevitable adaptation to climate change.
  
An abstract is required for every document; it should succinctly summarize the reason for the work, the main findings, and the conclusions of the study. Abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, references and hyperlinks should be avoided. If references are essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself. -->==

+
 
+
2.1 Subsections
+
 
+
Divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1, 1.2, etc. and then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, ... Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing: do not just refer to 'the text'. Any subsection may be given a brief heading. Capitalize the first word of the headings.
+
 
+
 
+
2.2 General guidelines
+
 
+
Some general guidelines that should be followed in your manuscripts are:
+
 
+
*  Avoid hyphenation at the end of a line.
+
 
+
*  Symbols denoting vectors and matrices should be indicated in bold type. Scalar variable names should normally be expressed using italics.
+
 
+
*  Use decimal points (not commas); use a space for thousands (10 000 and above).
+
 
+
*  Follow internationally accepted rules and conventions. In particular use the international system of units (SI). If other quantities are mentioned, give their equivalent in SI.
+
 
+
 
+
2.3 Tables, figures, lists and equations
+
 
+
Please insert tables as editable text and not as images. Tables should be placed next to the relevant text in the article. Number tables consecutively in accordance with their appearance in the text and place any table notes below the table body. Be sparing in the use of tables and ensure that the data presented in them do not duplicate results described elsewhere in the article.
+
 
+
Graphics may be inserted directly in the document and positioned as they should appear in the final manuscript.
+
 
+
Number the figures according to their sequence in the text. Ensure that each illustration has a caption. A caption should comprise a brief title. Keep text in the illustrations themselves to a minimum but explain all symbols and abbreviations used. Try to keep the resolution of the figures to a minimum of 300 dpi. If a finer resolution is required, the figure can be inserted as supplementary material
+
 
+
For tabular summations that do not deserve to be presented as a table, lists are often used. Lists may be either numbered or bulleted. Below you see examples of both.
+
 
+
1. The first entry in this list
+
 
+
2. The second entry
+
 
+
2.1. A subentry
+
 
+
3. The last entry
+
 
+
* A bulleted list item
+
 
+
* Another one
+
 
+
You may choose to number equations for easy referencing. In that case they must be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in parentheses on the right hand side of the page. Below is an example of formulae that should be referenced as eq. (1].

Abstract

As water is a complex resource essential to human life and numerous activities, which largely departs from the characteristics of both public and private good, governance around its allocation and reallocation for different uses is not trivial. This explains why specific institutions have historically emerged to manage the resource or resolve conflicts arising from the multiple uses that compete with each other. It would be the case of the Water Court of Valencia or the Hydrographic Confederations. These specific institutions must interact with the traditional administration (in Spain, the central government, the autonomous communities and local bodies, which interact in a complex map of competences) and with private or mixed operators where appropriate, as well as with communities of irrigators, operators of energy conversion plants and other groups. The recurring drought episodes in Spain and Catalonia, more frequent and intense as a result of climate change, suggest the importance of thoroughly analyzing how the existing institutions have dealt with these episodes, and detecting dysfunctions and aspects to be strengthened. Climate change, in fact, amplifies a pre-existing phenomenon in much of the territory: drought is the acute manifestation of a structural challenge (long-term water scarcity), therefore, the institutional framework that addresses it it is as important as technological advances or investments to deal with it. Our contribution will make proposals along the lines of a federal improvement of the existing institutional framework, with a special focus on Catalonia, but with a Spanish and European perspective as well, to deal with the risk of drought, specific drought events and to advance the water security in a context of inevitable adaptation to climate change.
