| Question | Is human-made storage (e.g., a reservoir) possible for this resource? |
| Select Options | 1 No storage possible, 2 Storage possible, but not used, 3 Storage possible and used |
| Unit | |
| Role | |
| Importance | Storage facilities may allow resource users to compensate for variabililty in resource flows; this in turn may encourage planning for sustainable resource use (Schlager et al. 1994). Storage facilities can also help sequester potentially damagin pollutants. |
| Definition | The existence and use of human-constructed storage facilities where resource units are retained for potential future use, or sequestered for long-term storage. Human-made facilities also involve and are defined by the use of particular technologies (reservoir vs. tank storage of water in irrigation systems). |
