Today, a systemwide approach to watershed resource management is essential. As recent history has shown, the usual mixture of biophysical management measures are often constrained by institutional factors, frequently producing limited results. This book offers important management alternatives, examining this resource problem within an economic framework, using an interdisciplinary approach. Part I introduces the basic economic, biophysical, social, institutional, and policy aspects of watershed management. Part II illustrates specific watershed approaches through selected case studies from Asia and the Pacific.

Hydrology - Current Research and Future Directions provides a comprehensive review of hydrological research using field investigations and integrated modeling in locations ranging from arid areas to regions with abundant water. Thanks to the contributions of expert researchers hailing from Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, India, and other countries, the complex dynamics of the world's water systems are better understood. The book discusses the pressure of climate change on water ecosystems and complex water management in cities. It provides information that can guide both practitioners and policymakers in the sustainable management of water through integrated water management and advanced treatment technologies. With its multidisciplinary research and approaches, this book opens the door not only to existing hydrology science but also to new partnerships in studies on sustainable water management.
