Most of the earth’s groundwater is in transboundary aquifers. This vital water resource will certainly be affected by climate change. This article reviews the global climate change framework to investigate how it considers water, and groundwater in particular. It then considers the international legal regime applicable to groundwater resources to explore how it deals with climate change and to what extent it is compatible with the UNFCCC framework. It concludes with identifying the limits and possibilities of the groundwater regime in addressing climate change.

Currently the Nile and the Orontes River basins are in the international spotlight as tension escalates between Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia in the former and between Syria and Turkey in the latter. In this article we investigate the cooperation dynamics between nation states in the two basins. We analyze the obstacles to cooperation that prevent the improvement of these dynamics through a novel analytical framework that enables researchers and policymakers to understand the cooperation dynamics in these transboundary river basins through a common set of terminologies and definitions.
