Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this report is to help improve the quality of the knowledge on the state of the world's water resources. In order to provide a basis for discussing the issues, FAO's Aquastat programme compiles existing quantitative and qualitative information on water resources, water use and irrigation by country. This report focuses on the work done through the Aquastat surveys to collect and analyse available information on water resources for all countries in the world. The report presents the concepts and methodology applied in order to compute country-level water resources data. It presents and analyses the key findings at both global and regional levels. It also discusses the limitations of the approach and the information gaps that remain.

Download or read book Clean Coastal Waters written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-08-17 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental problems in coastal ecosystems can sometimes be attributed to excess nutrients flowing from upstream watersheds into estuarine settings. This nutrient over-enrichment can result in toxic algal blooms, shellfish poisoning, coral reef destruction, and other harmful outcomes. All U.S. coasts show signs of nutrient over-enrichment, and scientists predict worsening problems in the years ahead. Clean Coastal Waters explains technical aspects of nutrient over-enrichment and proposes both immediate local action by coastal managers and a longer-term national strategy incorporating policy design, classification of affected sites, law and regulation, coordination, and communication. Highlighting the Gulf of Mexico's "Dead Zone," the Pfiesteria outbreak in a tributary of Chesapeake Bay, and other cases, the book explains how nutrients work in the environment, why nitrogen is important, how enrichment turns into over-enrichment, and why some environments are especially susceptible. Economic as well as ecological impacts are examined. In addressing abatement strategies, the committee discusses the importance of monitoring sites, developing useful models of over-enrichment, and setting water quality goals. The book also reviews voluntary programs, mandatory controls, tax incentives, and other policy options for reducing the flow of nutrients from agricultural operations and other sources.

This book was released on 1972 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The broad objective toward which this appendix is written is to maintain and improve the usefulness of the coastal zone to man for now and for the future. This objective is approached from the point of view of planning and managing the wise use of the coastal water and related land resources. Major coastal uses are seen as the extraction of living and non-living resources, waste disposal, recreation and aesthetics, transportation, national defense and coastal land use. Nine major problem areas are selected for special analysis, partially on the basis of numerous interviews throughout the region. These problem areas are living resources, conservation of wetlands, non-living resources, water pollution, thermal effects, solid waste disposal, recreation, marine transportation, and coastal erosion and tidal flooding. For each of these problems, its nature, causes, and location and time characteristics are outlined; activities affected by the problem are identified and general solutions are considered in the broad context of planning and managing the region's water and related land resources. Interrelations of the coastal zone with its neighbors, both inland and oceanward are given special attention. Of the nine selected problems, water pollution and the conservation of wetlands appear at this time to be most prominantly recognized throughout the region.

The WWDR 2014 will be launched during the main World Water Day celebrations in Tokyo, Japan on 21 March 2014. Water and energy are closely interconnected and highly interdependent. Trade-offs need to be managed to limit negative impacts and foster opportunities for synergy. Water and energy have crucial impacts on poverty alleviation both directly, as a number of the Millennium Development Goals depend on major improvements in access to water, sanitation, power and energy sources, and indirectly, as water and energy can be binding constraints on economic growth the ultimate hope for widespread poverty reduction. This fifth edition of the United Nations World Water Development Report (WWDR 2014) seeks to inform decision-makers
