Watershed Adaptation is an environmental planning and management strategy that, at the scale of a drainage basin, entails deliberate adjustments in land, water, and ecosystem use and governance to reduce vulnerability and enhance the resilience of watershed hydrological, ecological, and socio-economic systems to actual or expected climate change and climate variability.
