Determining urban water conservation and management strategies: a novel approach using field experiment and survey data

该项目的国家利益与评估通过高效和可持续用水实现环境可持续的澳大利亚的研究重点是一致的。该项目探讨了家庭如何对不同的需求侧工具做出反应，并确定了公众喜欢的节水策略。这些发现可以被决策者用来选择有效的工具，以加强节水，减少用水量，从而根据澳大利亚的生态手段可持续地使用水。

The project's national benefits are consistent with the research priorities that evaluate an environmentally sustainable Australia through efficient and sustainable water use. The project explores how households react to different demand side instruments and identifies water saving strategies preferred by the public. The findings can be used by decision-makers to select effective instruments to enhance water conservation, reduce water consumption and therefore use water sustainably according to Australia's ecological means.
