  abstract = {{A}gricultural and water development in the {K}rishna basin in south {I}ndia has led to a progressive over-commitment of water resources. {B}ased on a historical water accounting (1955-2004), this paper shows that upstream water development is the main cause for declining water availability in the lower {K}rishna basin ({A}ndhra {P}radesh state), {B}ut {A}ndhra {P}radesh's own policies of water resources development are also key in understanding the process of over-commitment observed in the region. {T}o slow down basin closure (little or no discharge to the ocean), there is a need for formal and adaptive water allocation mechanisms that can internalize social and environmental objectives.},
