Recenzii
"Groundwater is abstracted globally to meet our agricultural, domestic and industrial needs. The distribution of groundwater is highly heterogeneous and varies substantially between different geographical regions (Famiglietti, 2014). Similarly, groundwater management strategies also vary between different regions (Ahmad et al., 2020; Mushtaq et al., 2018; Quino Lima et al., 2020). In the Netherlands, for example, groundwater level and quality is effectively monitored throughout the country with a well-established monitoring network (Stuyfzand et al., 008). on on the groundwater issues from 14 different countries." --Elsevier, Groundwater for Sustainable Development
"This book should prove to be a valuable resource for groundwater professionals, since it provides reviews of current technologies, and introduces the socioeconomic issues that should be considered in conjunction with the technical issues when developing groundwater management plans or addressing unforeseen crises. For policy makers, who, for the most part, are familiar with the socioeconomic issues, the book highlights the technical practices and solutions that promote the sustainable management of groundwater resources, such as monitoring the levels and quality of groundwater; the ways to manage both supply and demand; and the options for integrated management of multiple water sources, such as groundwater and surface water. Finally, for the general public, the book highlights the importance of groundwater and its value in our everyday lives, and provides an understanding of the technical and cultural difficulties that must be addressed to preserve the benefits of this most valuable resource for present and future generations." --GRIPP
