Metropolitan Water Management
Author: J. Gordon Milliken
Publisher: American Geophysical Union
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Water Resources Monograph Series, Volume 6. This monograph is intended to inform interested and capable persons, who happen not to be specialists in water resources planning, of the issues and alternative strategies related to metropolitan water supply. This involves learning something about the alternative strategies—some ancient and others not yet operational—for increasing water supplies and/or modifying demand so a supply/demand balance is maintained. This also requires an awareness of the complex economic, environmental, and social issues that increasingly compound what once was considered a purely technological problem, to be left to water resource specialists to solve.

Metropolitan Water Use Conflicts In Asia And The Pacific
Author: James E. Nickum
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429715870
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Although Asia is the least urbanized continent, it contains half of the world’s megacities and many of the world’s fastest-growing economies. Urban growth is already stressing local water supplies and causing intense conflict among water users—between haves and have-nots in urban areas as well as between farmers and fishers outside the cities. In addition, concern is growing over the depletion and degradation of water sources and over the impact of water policies and patterns of water use on the natural environment. From the perspective of the maturing metropolitan water economy, the contributors to this volume consider the problems of urban water management in the region. They focus on the institutional and policy dimensions of conflict and seek to provide a range of viable options for reducing the growing frictions among water users. Eight specific case studies of urban areas in Asia and the Pacific span a wide range of economic levels of development, physical settings, and hydrological conditions. The book will be of interest to scholars and policymakers concerned with issues of water and environmental policy, urban management, and resource conflict in general.
