Water security evaluation based on comprehensive index in Jing-Jin-Ji district, China

Ze Huang, Jiahong Liu, Chao Mei, Hao Wang and Weiwei Shao

Why was this paper selected for Editor's Choice? 

I have chosen the paper Water security evaluation based on comprehensive index in”Jing-JinLi” district, China by Huang et al., as it addresses an issue of some importance in the management and security of water resources. My idea was to look for a paper that went beyond a specific detailed case study, which could be an example for solving standing problems in general contexts. This paper presents a general multi-criteria water security evaluation index methodology applied to a specific case in the Jing-Jin-Ji district, China, that could, however, be applied elsewhere. The methodology considers the impact of human activities on the spatial distribution of water resources, and forecasts and evaluates future scenarios.

Andrea Capodaglio, Editor.
