Water Resources Management V (Wit Transactions on Ecology and the Environment)

Several water-related conferences organized by the Wessex Institute of
Technology have been successfully held in many locations throughout the
world. Water Resources Management is one of the most important of those conference series. This book contains papers from the latest conference in the series.

The importance of this meeting cannot be overemphasized as water
increasingly becomes a precious resource on which the well-being of future generations depends. Issues of water quality, quantity, management and planning, as well as other related topics, are essential to the future of
the world population.

Water resources are under extreme pressure today all over the world. The
resulting problems have given rise to many activities which reflect the
growing concern about them and the importance accorded to their sustainable management.

The fifth International Conference on Water Resources Management covers more recent technological and scientific developments associated with the
management of surface and sub-surface water resources. The papers are under the following topics: Water Management and Planning: Waste Water Treatment and Management; Water Security Systems; Pollution Control; Irrigation Problems; River Basin Management; Hydrological Modelling; Flood Risk; Decision Support Systems; Groundwater Flow Problems and Remediation; Water and Health; Remediation and Renaturalisation; Coastal and Estuarial Problems; Climate Change and Water Resources; Governance and Monitoring; Waste Water Treatment and Re-Use; Regional and Geo Politics of Water; Water
Resources and Economics; Water Ecology; and Water Harvesting.
