Loweswater案例研究是基于英国的一个集水区。这是一项行动研究实验，旨在测试自下而上的小流域管理方法，并探索与更广泛的水治理安排的适应性。本章使用Loweswater案例研究来探讨如何通过一种基于理解地方尺度上的社会和生态系统之间的联系的方法，为清洁水生态系统服务的管理和/或治理提供适当的空间尺度提供有价值的见解。本章描述了Loweswater的自然和社会集水区及其治理安排，重点介绍了试图在Loweswater实施社区集水区管理方法的机制。本章最后总结了该项目对环境治理如何对社会和自然尺度敏感的一些思考，以及可以从Loweswater的例子中学到什么。
The Loweswater case study was based around a water catchment in the UK. It was an action‐research experiment to test a bottom‐up approach to catchment management at the small catchment scale and explore fit with broader water governance arrangements. This chapter uses the Loweswater case study to explore how the adoption of an approach based on understanding the links between social and ecological systems at local scales may provide valuable insights into appropriate spatial scales for the management and/ or governance of the ecosystem service provision of clean water. The chapter describes the natural and social catchment of Loweswater and the governance arrangements surrounding it. It focuses on the mechanism which attempted to implement a community catchment management approach at Loweswater. The chapter concludes with some reflections from the project on how environmental governance is sensitive to social and natural scales and what can be learned from the Loweswater example.
