- CC scenarios (downscaled to the basins)
- Current and future storage plus water use in each basin
- Evaluation of climate change impacts on storage at the basin scale
- rules & regulations
- land & water rights
- management bodies
- resettlement & compensation
- livelihood change
- identification of water sources
- cost & benefits of water storage
- The effectiveness of different options
- The same for all storage types

- Transparent in its evaluation approach
- Easy to use by advisers and policy makers
- Illustrate policy options
