Urban water use refers to the consumption and management of water resources in urban areas. This research area focuses on understanding the water demand, supply, and infrastructure needs of cities and towns to ensure sustainable water management practices. It explores issues such as water conservation, water quality, wastewater treatment, and the impact of urbanization on water resources. Researchers in this field seek to develop strategies and technologies to optimize water use efficiency, reduce water waste, and enhance the resilience of urban water systems to future challenges such as climate change and population growth. Ultimately, the goal of urban water use research is to promote the long-term availability and quality of water resources for urban populations.
