Abstract
This paper studies regional water security where climate change meets existing water-sharing agreements, and estimates the gap between projected demand and renewable resources through 2040. It shows that current management tools were designed for a more stable climate, and that irrigation efficiency alone cannot close the gap without new negotiated arrangements. It recommends three workable regional cooperation instruments to adopt before critical stress points are reached.
