Abstract
Integrated watershed management (IWM) is a holistic approach to managing water resources in complex landscapes, aimed at balancing environmental, social, and economic needs. Not applicable The IWM framework integrates hydrological modelling with socioeconomic data to predict water availability and demand under varying conditions. Implementing this framework requires collaboration between government agencies, farmers, and local communities for effective watershed management. The empirical specification follows $Y=\beta_0+\beta^\top X+\varepsilon$, and inference is reported with uncertainty-aware statistical criteria.
