This book was released on with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a collection of scientific papers from 1980 to 2021 in the fields of hydrology and water resource management to support environmentally sound of agricultural production process. This collection of scientific works is of course the result of decades of continuous research and already presented at various scientific meetings, nationally and internationally. This book is also a reflection of the author career as a lecturer at higher education institution as well as a scientist in his field. This book provides also a new perspective on the role of hydrology and water resource management, not only limited to the scope of the production process for raw materials of food, but also extending to bio-landscape architecture. This new view is a phenomenon of the development of science and technology to understand increasingly complex multi-sectoral problems so that they can be seen more clearly. The development of science and technology is also accompanied by the addition of variants of social, economic, cultural and even political problems. The solution approach can no longer be overcome by using only one disciplinary approach, but must go through various disciplines. The form can be multi-intra-inter-disciplinary. As a result, there is a slice between fields of science that must be accepted as a necessity. This is a phenomenon of a scientific paradigm shift that is triggered by the wider intersection between fields of science, thus providing new treasures, new spaces, and new ideas in placing overlapping scientific fields as a challenge.

Download or read book Hydrology and Water Management in the Humid Tropics written by Michael Bonell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-09-02 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental problems in the humid tropical regions, where the focus is on the fate and management of the surviving rainforest and climate change, are attracting increasing attention internationally. The distribution of tropical rainfall is highly variable, and in many regions the supply of potable water is inadequate. By the end of the century one-third of the world's population will be living in the humid tropics. This book considers all aspects of hydrology in the humid tropics. The first four parts of the book cover the physical basis of hydrology in the humid tropics: climatology, meteorology, process hydrology, sedimentation, water quality and freshwater ecology. This is followed by extensive treatment of the human and societal issues: land-use changes, water resource management, and rural and urban water supply in the tropical regions. The book is a uniquely integrated summary of hydrology in the tropics.
Download or read book Hydrology and Water Resources Management in Arid Semi Arid and Tropical Regions written by Ondieki, Christopher Misati and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrology is a key influence on water security, environmental sustainability, agricultural production, energy, and transport, especially in unique environments such as arid regions and the tropics, where degradation issues on water and land can threaten the livelihoods of poor communities. With implications in urbanization, landscape architecture, and sanitation, enhancing the practice of water use, management, and planning is imperative for the sustainable development of these regions. Hydrology and Water Resources Management in Arid, Semi-Arid, and Tropical Regions is an essential research publication that seeks to improve scientific understanding and sharing of data in hydrology and integrated water resources management of arid, semi-arid, and tropical regions in order to enhance water governance and alleviate reduction in the vulnerability of water resources systems to global changes. Featuring a wide range of topics such as hydrometeorology, sustainable development, and climate change, this book is ideal for researchers, technology developers, academicians, policymakers, government officials, and students.

This book was released on 2011-02-17 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is an increasingly critical issue at the forefront of global policy change, management and planning. There are growing concerns about water as a renewable resource, its availability for a wide range of users, aquatic ecosystem health, and global issues relating to climate change, water security, water trading and water ethics. This handbook provides the most comprehensive reference ever published on water resource issues. It brings together multiple disciplines to understand and help resolve problems of water quality and scarcity from a global perspective. Its case studies and 'foundation' chapters will be greatly valued by students, researchers and professionals involved in water resources, hydrology, governance and public policy, law, economics, geography and environmental studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents case studies that share important experiences regarding Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) in various countries. Following an introduction to theoretical concepts, responsibilities, and challenges, the subsequent chapters address, among other topics, an analysis of policies and regulations for water management in Brazil, the drivers that led California to adapt to the IWRM framework, and the international regulations for water markets and water banking in Australia and Chile. The implications of climate change for water resource systems in Mexico are discussed, as well as management strategies from California that could potentially serve as IWRM adaptation schemes in Mexico. Critical cases from Guanacaste (Costa Rica), and from Zayandehrud River Basin and Lake Urmia (Iran) are reviewed in terms of management practices and solutions. The book also provides an overview of the current availability and use of water resources in South Korea, and discusses the management of and international water law instruments for transboundary groundwater in Africa.
