Statement: Reservoir emplacement over time since 1800
Abstract: Alex de Sherbinin (CIESIN) and Bernhard Lehner (department of geography, at McGill University) and others worked for years together to establish a world database on reservoirs. Over 7000 reservoirs are included presently and presented over time in this visualization.
