• "To some degree, the word transboundary appears to have become more preponderant than transborder in the environmental literature, and two commonly heard phrases are “transboundary natural resource management” and “transboundary ecosystem management.”"
• "Options include (see Chapter 3): improving tenure, and recognizing the value of traditional knowledge to encourage farmer investments in soil and water conservation, which lead to more profitable agriculture; addressing resource-related conflicts through multilevel environmental and development cooperation, including bringing all stakeholders together to negotiate sharing benefits from interdependent resources, such as transboundary water."
• "The opposite negotiating positions are the Kyrgyz and Tajik insistence that water is as fungible and marketable as their neighbors 'hydrocarbons, while Uzbekistan is increasingly supporting the position that the Amu Darya and Syr Darya are in fact "transboundary" rivers, which accordingly makes them regional and international rather than bilateral issues."
