Water Conservation in the Era of Global Climate Change

Editat de Binota Thokchom, Pengpeng Qiu, Pardeep Singh, Parameswar K. Iyer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 feb 2021
Water Conservation in the Era of Global Climate Change reviews key issues surrounding climate change and water resources. The book brings together experts from a variety of fields and perspectives, providing a comprehensive view on how climate change impacts water resources, how water pollution impacts climate change, and how to assess potential hazards and success stories on managing and addressing current issues in the field. Topics also include assessing policy impacts, innovative water reuse strategies, and information on impacts on fisheries and agriculture including food scarcity.
This book is an excellent tool for researchers and professionals in Climate Change, Climate Services and Water Resources, and those trying to combat the impacts and issues related to Global and Planetary Change.


  • Covers a wide range of theoretical and practical issues related to how climate change impacts water resources and adaptation, with extended influence on agriculture, food and water security, policymaking, etc.
  • Reviews mathematical tools and simulations models on predicting potential hazards from climate change in such a way they can be useful to readers from a variety of levels of mathematical expertise
  • Examines the potential impacts on agriculture and drinking water quality
  • Includes case studies of successful management of water and pollutants that contribute to climate change
