The Water Energy Nexus and Urban Metabolism

Identification, Quantification and Interpretation of Water-Energy Links in Cities

Buch

Residential water use, largely for heating water, comprises 45% of the effect. Urban metabolism theory is developed and used in mass balance analysis to derive quantitative performance indicators for the management of urban hydrology.
