Supplementary notes
* The baseline water stress index measures the ratio of total water withdrawals to available renewable water supplies. Water withdrawals include domestic, industrial, irrigation, and livestock consumptive and non-consumptive uses. Available renewable water supplies include surface and groundwater and consider the impact of upstream consumptive water users and large dams on downstream water availability. Higher values indicate more competition among users.
Countries excluded from this statistic were not surveyed or did not have available data.
