Download or read book Ogallala written by John Opie and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2018-08 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2019 Choice Outstanding Academic Title The Ogallala aquifer, a vast underground water reserve extending from South Dakota through Texas, is the product of eons of accumulated glacial melts, ancient Rocky Mountain snowmelts, and rainfall, all percolating slowly through gravel beds hundreds of feet thick. Ogallala: Water for a Dry Land is an environmental history and historical geography that tells the story of human defiance and human commitment within the Ogallala region. It describes the Great Plains' natural resources, the history of settlement and dryland farming, and the remarkable irrigation technologies that have industrialized farming in the region. This newly updated third edition discusses three main issues: long-term drought and its implications, the efforts of several key groundwater management districts to regulate the aquifer, and T. Boone Pickens's failed effort to capture water from the aquifer to supply major Texas urban areas. This edition also describes the fierce independence of Texas ranchers and farmers who reject any governmental or bureaucratic intervention in their use of water, and it updates information about the impact of climate change on the aquifer and agriculture. Read Char Miller's article on theconversation.com to learn more about the Ogallala Aquifer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Produced biennially, The World’s Water provides a timely examination of the key issues surrounding freshwater resources and their use. Each new volume identifies and explains the most significant trends worldwide, and offers the best data available on a variety of topics related to water. The 2008-2009 volume features overview chapters on: • water and climate change • water in China • status of the Millennium Development Goals for water • peak water • efficient urban water use • business reporting on water This new volume contains an updated chronology of global conflicts associated with water, as well as brief reviews of issues regarding desalination, the Salton Sea, and the Three Gorges Dam. From the world’s leading authority on water issues, The World’s Water is the most comprehensive and up-to-date source of information and analysis on freshwater resources and the political, economic, scientific, and technological issues associated with them. It is an essential reference for water resource professionals in government agencies and nongovernmental organizations, researchers, students, and anyone concerned with water and its use.

Download or read book Analysis of Water Resource Systems written by L. Votruba and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1988-09-01 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water resource systems research provides a basis for rational water management in large basins. The design and operation of water resource systems are both the most complicated and the most important tasks of water management. This book deals with the basic issues involved in the application of systems sciences to water management.A survey of the systems sciences (the general systems theory, cybernetics, systems engineering, operations research and systems analysis) is presented, as well as the methods for water resource systems analysis and for water resource systems analysis and for their evaluation. The mathematical methods used in systems theory have been given detailed treatment. Linear and dynamic programming have been used as models of optimal programming. Since many practical tasks require the simulation models of water resource systems, apart from their principles and a detailed description, the simulation language for computing programming has been included. Other methods of operations research and their application to water resource systems have been analysed and evaluated. Some of these are: models of inventory theory, models of queuing theory, graphs, network analysis, and some special methods like the out-of-kilter algorithm, the chance-constrained model and the chance-constrained model combined with the simluation model. One chapter is devoted to information and information systems in water management. The final part of the book deals with prospects for water resource systems development.The book is intended for engineers and decision-makers involved in projects, operation and research. However, it can be used by students in high schools, technical universities and by graduate students. It will serve as an up-to-date source of information about the principles and methodology of water resource analysis and design.

Download or read book Water Resources Initiatives and Agendas written by Susana Neto and published by Westphalia Press. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to New Water Policy and Practice Journal: a platform for the world's emerging water leaders and thinkers. Sponsored by the Policy Studies Organization and supported by a dynamic team which includes a nine member International Advisory Board and over 50 editors from more than 25 different countries, New Water Policy and Practice Journal is an online peer-reviewed open access journal, followed by hard copy, at least twice per year. Additional special issues will be published on an ad-hoc basis. All editions will feature foundational contributions from internationally recognised water leaders, together with submissions expressing new ideas from the world's young water professionals and emerging water leaders. With these first opinion editorials we hope that the intentions of New Water Policy and Practice Journal are clear and inspirational: to encourage and drive transversal approaches to the development of new and innovative methods that link theory and practice, management and policy, that address the real challenges faced by people around the world, and to provide a platform for new and emerging water leaders and thinkers to make an even greater contribution to finding the solutions so necessary to address the world's current and future water challenges. Our hope is that as water policy makers, managers, researchers, educators, community leaders, and interested individuals around the world you will find New Water Policy and Practice Journal a highly useful addition to the literature supporting practical solutions to water challenges.
