Nova Science Publishers Inc Coastal Groundwater System Changes in Response to
Book SynopsisMost large urban centres lie in coastal regions, which are home to about 25% of the world''s population. The current coastal urban population of 200 million is projected to almost double in the next 20 to 30 years. This expanding human presence has dramatically changed the coastal natural environment. To meet the growing demand for more housing and other land uses, land has been reclaimed from the sea in coastal areas in many countries, including China, Britain, Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Italy, the Netherlands, and the United States. Coastal areas are often the ultimate discharge zones of regional ground water flow systems. The direct impact of land reclamation on coastal engineering, environment and marine ecology is well recognised and widely studied. However, it has not been well recognised that reclamation may change the regional groundwater regime, including groundwater level, interface between seawater and fresh groundwater, and submarine groundwater discharge to the coast. This book first reviews the state of the art of the recent studies on the impact of coastal land reclamation on ground water level and the seawater interface. Steady-state analytical solutions based on Dupuit and Ghyben-Herzberg assumptions have been derived to describe the modification of water level and movement of the interface between fresh groundwater and saltwater in coastal hillside or island situations. These solutions show that land reclamation increases water level in the original aquifer and pushes the saltwater interface to move towards the sea. In the island situation, the water divide moves towards the reclaimed side, and ground water discharge to the sea on both sides of the island increases. After reclamation, the water resource is increased because both recharge and the size of aquifer are increased. This book then derives new analytical solutions to estimate groundwater travel time before and after reclamation. Hypothetical examples are used to examine the changes of groundwater travel time in response to land reclamation. After reclamation, groundwater flow in the original aquifer tends to be slower and the travel time of the groundwater from any position in the original aquifer to the sea becomes longer for the situation of coastal hillside. For the situation of an island, the water will flow faster on the unreclaimed side, but more slowly on the reclaimed side. The impact of reclamation on groundwater travel time on the reclaimed side is much more significant than that on the unreclaimed side. The degree of the modifications of the groundwater travel time mainly depends on the scale of land reclamation and the hydraulic conductivity of the fill materials.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Conflicts over Natural Resources in the Global
Book SynopsisInhabitants of poor, rural areas in the Global South heavily depend on natural resources in their immediate vicinity. Conflicts over and exploitation of these resources â whether it is water, fish, wood fuel, minerals, or land â severely affect their livelihoods. The contributors to this volume leave behind the polarised debate, previously surrounding the relationship between natural resources and conflict, preferring a more nuanced approach that allows for multiple causes at various levels. The contributions cover a wide array of resources, geographical contexts (Africa, Asia and Latin America), and conflict dynamics. Most are of a comparative nature, exploring experiences of conflict as well as cooperation in multiple regions.This volume finds its origin in an innovative research programme with the acronym CoCooN, steered by The Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO/WOTRO) and involving universities and civil society partners in many countries.

Taylor & Francis Inc Groundwater Assessment Modeling and Management
Book Synopsis Your Guide to Effective Groundwater ManagementGroundwater Assessment, Modeling, and Management discusses a variety of groundwater problems and outlines the solutions needed to sustain surface and ground water resources on a global scale. Contributors from around the world lend their expertise and provide an international perspective on groundwater management. They address the management of groundwater resources and pollution, waste water treatment methods, and the impact of climate change on groundwater and water availability (specifically in arid and semi-arid regions such as India and Africa). Incorporating management with science and modeling, the book covers all areas of groundwater resource assessment, modeling, and management, and combines hands-on applications with relevant theory. For Water Resource Managers and Decision MakersThe book describes techniques for the assessment of grTrade Review"…The ultimate message of the book is ‘groundwater modeling’ as the core issue of management. But to be successful predictive tools the models need to be built on the foundation of sound hydrogeological information. It is a dynamic, complex process evolving through time taking into account all the factors, local and regional, influencing the groundwater regime and management strategies. This book, I am sure, will enormously benefit the hydrogeological community. Editors, M. Thangarajan and V.P.Singh should be complimented for this wonderful publication, no doubt an academic excellence."—Journal of Geological Society of India, May 2017 Issue Table of ContentsGROUNDWATER RESOURCES AND ASSESSMENT.

Taylor & Francis Inc Contaminated Sediments in Freshwater Systems
Book SynopsisAssessment of freshwater sediments can determine whether chemical concentrations are sufficient to cause adverse effects on aquatic organisms or organisms higher in the food chain, including humans. This book presents methods for assessing sediments and includes an integration of physical, chemical, and biological information. It examines the elements of quality assurance and control programs, considerations for the conduct of field surveys, screening-level analyses, chemical analyses, toxicity tests for assessing biological impacts, assessments of benthic invertebrate community structure, surveys of fish tumors and abnormalities, and data presentation and interpretation techniques.Trade Review"Contaminated Sediments in Freshwater Systems is a book that fills an important gap in the contaminated sediment assessment literature, as previously information on various aspects of sediment sampling and the physical, biological, and chemical damage assessment of contaminated sediments were typically presented in guidance manuals published by various state and federal agencies. This is an excellent book for those who would like to develop a general understanding of the previously mentioned topics, and of what contaminated sediments are and how they are formed in freshwater systems, without going into much technical detail." — Emese Hadnagy, University of New Haven, Connecticut, USA"This text is quite readable and is written in an interesting style. I really like the inclusion of sediment and sediment porewater sampling approaches. This is something that is unique to the field of contaminated sediments, so deserves (and here receives) special treatment. The book chapters do intrigue me and it does seem like a good book to have on the shelf." — Kevin Gardner, University of New Hampshire, USA"Contaminated Sediments in Freshwater Systems brings a new and reflective approach to looking at the topic. It combines an easy-to-read conversational style with a highly descriptive and novel-like opening chapter to draw the reader in. Thereafter, technical and scientific aspects of sediment formation, sampling and analysis and how to evaluate contamination are given a clear and concise treatment that will suit students and professionals alike. The text is thorough in coverage and includes several highly relevant (but mainly U.S.) examples of sediment contamination in freshwater systems." — Rob Mortimer, Nottingham Trent University, United KingdomTable of ContentsPreface.

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Water Law
Book SynopsisThis volume of the Elgar Encyclopedia of Environmental Law provides thorough and detailed coverage of the changing meanings and roles of water law, from the local to the global. It examines the rules of ownership, rights of use, and dispute resolution that address access, allocation, and protection of water resources.Written by leading scholars and practitioners from across the globe, the volume is organised into thematic parts, beginning with an overview of fundamental concepts in water law, as well as pervasive issues such as the interplay of water law, governance and politics, and the water-energy nexus. Entries then discuss topics in international, regional, and national water law, before exploring broader questions about the intersections between water law and areas such as development, infrastructure, and indigenous rights. The volume also offers insights into potential future directions of water law and governance in response to the increasingly pressing ecological issues.This authoritative volume will be a vital resource for all scholars and students of environmental law. Practitioners, policy makers and water managers will also find its accessible discussion of complex topics in water law particularly beneficial.Trade Review‘This encyclopedia is a landmark reference work that systematically and comprehensively discusses complex topics in the dynamic field of water law.’ -- Germarié Viljoen, South African Law Journal'This is a ''must have'' resource for anyone interested in water law, whether domestic, transnational, or international. Impressive in its scope, this volume covers everything from doctrinal nuance to the broad relationships between water law and global security, human rights, disaster response, and sustainability. The book both challenges and inspires the reader, and offers clear-eyed recommendations to empower water law to play a key role in institutionalizing cooperation and pre-empting conflict among nations of the earth.' -- Christine A. Klein, University of Florida Levin College of Law, US'This book, edited by two well-known experts in the field, is a very welcome addition to the Elgar Encyclopedia of Environmental Law series. It has lucidly written chapters on the relevant general international law as well as detailed chapters on regional and national water law regimes. It should be in the library of all who follow international water and environmental law.' -- Robbie Sabel, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, IsraelTable of ContentsContents: Foreword to the Encyclopedia xiv Jamie Benidickson and Yves Le Bouthillier Foreword to Volume X xv Michael Faure Introduction to Volume X 1 Joseph W Dellapenna and Joyeeta Gupta PART 1 PERVASIVE ISSUES X.1 The expanding boundaries of water law 9 Joyeeta Gupta and Joseph W Dellapenna X.2 A note on law in general and international law in particular 20 Joseph W Dellapenna X.3 Water governance and politics 33 Erick Velázquez Hernández, Dave Huitema and Jampel Dell’Angelo X.4 Water and security 44 Rhett B Larson X.5 The UN contribution to water law, environment, climate disruption, and the Sustainable Development Goals 55 Joyeeta Gupta and Hilmer J Bosch X.6 The water-energy nexus 72 Lee Godden X.7 Fundamental concepts of property in water and the role of markets in water governance 86 Joseph W Dellapenna X.8 Aquatic boundaries 104 Joseph W Dellapenna PART 2 INTERNATIONAL WATER LAW X.9 The continuing evolution of international water law 123 Owen McIntyre X.10 Groundwater in international law 142 Kirstin Conti and Joyeeta Gupta X.11 International litigation and arbitration over water disputes 156 Farnaz Shirani Bidabadi X.12 The human rights to water and sanitation 166 Daphina Misiedjan and Pedi Obani X.13 River basin organizations 177 David J Devlaeminck X.14 How international water law connects to environmental law and human rights 190 Ellen Hey and Alberto Quintavalla X.15 Advancing water law through rights of nature 203 Julia Talbot-Jones X.16 Sustainability and international water law 214 Otto Spijkers X.17 Providing for future generations 225 Lydia Slobodian PART 3 REGIONAL WATER LAW X.18 Europe 239 Marleen van Rijswick X.19 The Mekong River Basin 255 Susanne Schmeier X.20 Southern Africa 270 Michael Kidd X.21 Central Asia 283 Barbara Janusz-Pawletta PART 4 NATIONAL WATER LAW X.22 Water jurisdiction: on federalism, river basins, metropolises, and communities 301 Francine van den Brandeler and Filippo Maria Lancieri X.23 Changing ‘ownership’ in water law: comparative experiences in the developing world 315 Joyeeta Gupta and Hilmer J Bosch X.24 Groundwater law at the domestic level 329 Gabriela Cuadrado-Quesada and Joyeeta Gupta X.25 The Arab countries of the Middle East 341 Léna Salamé and Raya Marina Stephan X.26 Reforming legal frameworks for water management in Central Asia 354 Jenniver Sehring, Aminjon Abdulloev, Nataliya Chemayeva, Botir Ismailov, Nargiza Osmonova and Botagoz Sharipova X.27 China: water law in transition 367 Libin Zhang X.28 Brazil: evolution of water and sanitation law and challenges for inclusive services 377 Raquel dos Santos and Klaas Schwartz PART 5 WATER LAW AND BROADER ISSUES X.29 Water law and development 391 Philippe Cullet X.30 Legal frameworks and water services 402 Klaas Schwartz and Mireia Tutusaus X.31 Indigenous rights to water 413 Barbara Cosens X.32 Large-scale water infrastructure, territorial transformation and water rights dispossession 425 Rutgerd Boelens X.33 Water law and disaster: floods and droughts 438 Margot A Hurlbert X.34 Water and mining 451 Mirja Schoderer, Jampel Dell’Angelo and Dave Huitema X.35 Coastal zones 466 Ryan B Stoa PART 6 CONCLUSIONS X.36 Water law: its role, shortcomings, and potential 485 Joseph W Dellapenna and Joyeeta Gupta Index 499

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Water Safety, Security and Sustainability: Threat Detection and Mitigation
Book Synopsis This book focuses on threats, especially contaminants, to drinking water and the supply system, especially in municipalities but also in industrial and even residential settings. The safety, security, and suitability landscape can be described as dynamic and complex stemming from necessity and hence culpability due to the emerging threats and risks, vis-a-vis globalization resulting in new forms of contaminants being used due to new technologies. The book provides knowledge and guidance for engineers, scientists, designers, researchers, and students who are involved in water, sustainability, and study of security issues. This book starts out with basics of water usage, current statistics, and an overview ofwater resources. The book then introduces different scenarios of safety and security and areas that researchers need to focus. Following that, the book presents different types of contaminants – inadvertent, intentional, or incidental. The next section presents different methodologies of contamination sensing/detection and remediation strategies as per guidance and standards set globally. The book then concludes with selected chapters on water management, including critical infrastructure that is critical to maintaining safe water supplies to cities and municipalities. Each chapter includes descriptive information for professionals in their respective fields. The breadth of chapters offers insights into how science (physical, natural, and social) and technology can support new developments to manage the complexity resident within the evolving threat and risk landscape.Table of Contents1.

United Nations Ensuring safe water and sanitation for all: a
Book SynopsisThis study examines the role and potential of science, technology, and innovation (STI) as key enablers for catalytic change in the world's achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG6) on clean water and sanitation for all. It highlights the deep-rooted relationship between the two and analyses how STI can contribute significantly to overcoming the persistent challenges in delivering SDG 6, with a focus on the distribution and delivery of safe water and sanitation, the integrated water resource management, and addressing inequalities in the sector, notably in relation to gender. The study also highlights the potential of frontier technologies. Countries are recommended to consider STI as part of an answer that requires careful context-specific policies to bring it to fruition. They include embracing decentralised solutions and considering nexus that water shares with other sectors. The report also suggests how the international community can go a long way to assist countries in achieving SDG 6, notably by pooling its knowledge and technological know-how through sharing mechanisms and by developing innovative financial mechanisms to support water and sanitation projects in developing countries
