There have been no ubiquitous, and unanimously accepted, definitions of the notions of ecohydrology and sustainable development. Aside from the interpretation by the UNESCO IHP-V Projects 2.3/2.4, there exist other ways, in which the terms “ecohydrology” and “hydroecology” are understood. Also several competing definitions of the notion “sustainable development” are available. Yet, a robust finding, holding across a range of definitions and interpretations, is that ecohydrology is a very important tool serving sustainable development and management of water resources. As the water problems of the world are getting increasingly severe, due to the population rise, striving towards higher quality of life and adverse climate change impacts, broadening applications of ecohydrology will be indispensable in the future.
