[1] WEI+: the Water Exploitation Index Plus. The WEI+ is defined as the total water net consumption (abstractions minus returns) divided by the freshwater resources of a region, including upstream inflowing water. WEI+ values have a range between 0 and 1. Values below 0.1 denote “low water stress”, values between 0.1 and 0.2 denote “moderate water stress”, “water stress” when this ratio is larger than 0.2, and “severe water stress” if the ratio exceeds 0.4 (Feargemann, 2012).
