   Why is water science important?

   • ‘The importance of water science depends on one's viewpoint,’ Professor Y Ron Shen said in his speech at the Water Science Forum. He indicated that water science on the molecular level is complex, requiring multidisciplinary knowledge. However, difficulties are encountered because of the lack of effective molecular level techniques.

   Why is water important for life?

   • Water is essential for life as we know it, as we are about two-thirds water. Without water, life could not have evolved and would die. Droughts can cause famines, and floods can lead to death and disease. Given its clear importance, water is the most studied material on Earth.

   Why is water research important?

   • The importance of water for society and the global relevance of water research means that such research needs to be freely accessible and re-usable globally for everybody, i.e., without the need for paid licenses to either view and re-use the publications or to use the data and related code employed in the research.
