The figure describes the relationship between the risk to water security in each hydrological basin and the governance and environmental conditions in the regions upwind. The relationship between governance (y axis), environmental performance (x axis), the level of risk to water security of each hydrological basin relative to the 379 basins used in the study (colour gradient) and the area of the basin (size of the circle).
