This chapter summarizes the findings in the previous chapters and attempts to connect the dots of the previous chapters. It addresses the fact that water allocation across the world has focused solely on irrigation and how the doctrine of equitable allocation must be altered by courts and ad hoc tribunals to include other uses, including for potable water and fisheries, aprticularly, in light of climate change. With regards to ad hoc arbitrations, it also compares the length of time from the execution of the compromis until the issuance of the arbitral awards for the three arbitrations analyzed herein, as well as other transboundary water and environmental disputes. Finally, The use of precedents and the development of norms is one characteristic that runs through all of these disputes, particularly to fill lacunae. This use of precedents, termed, “cross-pollination” herein, leads to greater coherence in international law.
