Описание: The central focus of this volume is a critical comparative analysis of the key drivers for water resource management and the provision of clean water – governance systems and institutional and legal arrangements. The authors present a systematic analysis of case study river systems drawn from Australia, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, UK and USA to provide an integrated global assessment of the scale and key features of catchment management.  A key premise explored is that despite the diversity of jurisdictions and catchments there are commonalities to a successful approach. The authors show that environmental and public health water quality criteria must be integrated with the economic and social goals of those affected, necessitating a 'twin-track' and holistic (cross-sector and discipline) approach of stakeholder engagement and sound scientific research.  A final synthesis presents a set of principles for adaptive catchment management. These principles demonstrate how to integrate the best scientific and technical knowledge with policy, governance and legal provisions. It is shown how decision-making and implementation at the appropriate geographic and governmental scales can resolve conflicts and share best sustainable practices.

Описание: This book examines the classification, modelling and environmental implications of catchments and drainage basins. Topics include the importance of viable but non-culturable bacteria in monitoring microbial water quality; regionalising hydrological soil properties in the Brazilian Cerrado region using a semantic import model approach; ephemeral gully and gully erosion in cultivated land; protection and management of Karst water sources catchments; global fallout from humid and semi-humid basins of the Ob Estuary Macroarena; and developing spatial support systems for monitoring of water quality of the River Isunwin catchment in Nigeria.

Описание: This book focuses on the modelling of flow paths that affect the fluxes of dissolved compounds from a small agricultural catchment (the Narew Catchment) during snowmelt, as this is the dominant hydrological event in many moderate and high latitude catchments.

Описание: Presenting the study of limnogeomorphology, where past proxy data such as lacustrine sediments with information on landform development can be linked to modern observed data from instruments, including hydro-geomorphological and sedimentary data, this book covers information on both large lake-catchment systems and small systems.

Описание: Presents a fresh approach to catchments that encompasses the physical and biogeochemical interactions which control the hydrology and biogeochemistry of the system. This book focuses on case studies in isotope hydrology and isotope geochemistry that explore the applications of isotope techniques for investigating modern environmental problems.

Описание:

The growing impacts of economic activities and climate change on the conditions of rivers throughout the world, require a new, integrated approach towards river basin management, an approach that can also cope with an uncertain future. In this volume, leading European scientists and representatives of major stakeholder groups present risk-informed management as this new approach, as developed in the European Commission-funded project RISKBASE. It aims to improve the ecological quality of river basins and thus to sustain the goods and services they provide for the benefit of society. Risk-informed management involves the integrated application of three key-principles:

- Being well informed

- Managing adaptively

- Pursuing a participatory approach

The authors explain and underpin these principles in detail, offer inspiring examples from practice and connect them to the implementation of the European Water Framework Directive (WFD).

This book is intended for scientists, consultants and practitioners concerned about river basins, world-wide, as well as the drafters and implementers of the WFD River Basin Management Plans.
