Water Science and Technology: Water Resources Management

More about the book

Hydrology plays a crucial role in managing water resources and assessing risks like floods and pollution. However, many low-income countries struggle with insufficient data due to costly monitoring processes. Engaging local communities and volunteers for data collection presents a viable solution. Additionally, underground water reserves, vital for global water supply, are facing significant challenges due to illegal extraction practices, leading to a decline in both quantity and quality of these essential resources.
