Book Synopsis Sustainability of Integrated Water Resources Management by : Shimelis Gebriye Setegn
Download or read book Sustainability of Integrated Water Resources Management written by Shimelis Gebriye Setegn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main focus of this book is sustainable management of water resources in a changing climate. The book also addresses the question of how to define and measure the sustainability of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). The sustainability of IWRM is an important issue when planning and/or developing policies that consider the impact of climate change, water governance and ecohydrology in the context of a more holistic approach to ensure sustainable management of water resources. Sustainable IWRM is more about processes, and relatively little systematic or rigorous work has been done to articulate what components are the most essential to ensure the ongoing sustainability of IWRM efforts. The chapters cover topics including global prospective of IWRM; allocation of environmental flows in IWRM; echohydrology, water resources and environmental sustainability; climate change and IWRM; IWRM and water governance including social, economic, public health and cultural aspects; climate change resiliency actions related to water resources management sustainability and tools in support of sustainability for IWRM. This book will be of interest to researchers, practitioners, water resources mangers, policy and decision makers, donors, international institutions, governmental and non-governmental organizations, educators, as well as graduate and undergraduate students. It is a useful reference for Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM), ecohydrology, climate change impact and adaptations, water governance, environmental flows, geographic information system and modeling tools, water and energy nexus and related topics.
Book Synopsis Sustainable Development Research and Practice in Mexico and Selected Latin American Countries by : Walter Leal Filho
Download or read book Sustainable Development Research and Practice in Mexico and Selected Latin American Countries written by Walter Leal Filho and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an essential overview of sustainable development research in Mexico. It discusses the empirical research methods and findings, as well as practical initiatives and projects being pursued in Mexico and other countries in the region. Although a number of Mexican universities are now conducting high-quality research on matters related to sustainable development, there are few publications that offer a multidisciplinary overview of research efforts for a broader audience. This book addresses that gap in the literature, providing researchers at Mexican universities – including those from other countries working in Mexico – with an opportunity to present their work, i.e. curriculum innovations, empirical work, activities, case studies, and practical projects. As such, it fosters the exchange of information, ideas and experiences, successful initiatives and best practices.

Download or read book Sustainable Development and Planning IX written by C.A. Brebbia and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 863 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing papers presented at the 9th International Conference on Sustainable Development and Planning this volume brings together the work of academics, policy makers, practitioners and other international stakeholders and discusses new academic findings and their application in planning and development strategies, assessment tools and decision making processes. Problems related to development and planning are present in all areas and regions of the world. Accelerated urbanisation has resulted in both the deterioration of the environment and quality of life. Taking into consideration the interaction between different regions and developing new methodologies for monitoring, planning and implementation, new strategies can offer solutions mitigating environmental pollution and non-sustainable use of available resources. Energy saving and eco-friendly buildings have become an important part of modern day progress with emphasis on resource optimisation. Planning is a key part in ensuring that these solutions along with new materials and processes are efficiently incorporated. Planners, environmentalists, architects, engineers and economists have to work collectively to ensure that present and future needs are met. The papers in the book cover a number of topics, including: City planning; Regional planning; Rural developments; Sustainability and the built environment; Sustainability supply chain; Resilience; Environmental management; Energy resources; Cultural heritage; Quality of life; Sustainable solutions in emerging countries; Sustainable tourism; Learning from nature; Transportation; Social and political issues; Community planning; UN Sustainable Development Goals and Timber Structures.

Book Synopsis Management of Natural Disasters by : S. Syngellakis
Download or read book Management of Natural Disasters written by S. Syngellakis and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2016-12-12 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprising a selection of articles dedicated to disaster management this volume focuses on the challenges arising from extreme natural phenomena and descriptions of methods for assessing their occurrence probability and of measures for mitigating their intensity and detrimental effects. The first group of articles describes general strategies for risk assessment and mitigation, providing examples in the context of various kinds of natural disasters. The economic impact of mitigation measures, communities’ differing coping capabilities, human attitudes towards relocation and possible links to climate change are among the topics considered. Natural strategies are outlined in the contexts of Turkey, Brazil and United Arab Emirates. The second part of the book is concerned with disasters from specific natural causes starting with a group of ten articles on floods. The corresponding contributions address flood frequency, vulnerability and resilience of communities, response of small and medium enterprises, risk in terms of financial losses, private investment participation to mitigation measures, assessment of design solutions against flood hazard, sleeper dykes as a means of reducing risk, preparedness of hospitals, causes of highway flooding and their relative importance, and impact of floods on poor communities. The third set of articles are related to earthquake-related hazards describing, in particular, an analysis tool providing integrated risk, coping capacity and management output, a method for assessing vulnerability considering key contributing factors, a technique for urban aftershock management and damage assessment, and neural network modelling to estimate tsunami damage. Finally, a group of three articles address issues related to landslides, namely, slope management as a means of reducing risk and losses, early warning based on rainfall data, and hazard prediction using favourability function modelling and spatial target mapping software. Providing a unique global perspective this volume focuses on recent developments over a wide range of topics that cannot be found in similar, currently available, publications in this field. This is a valuable addition to the relevant literature available to researchers and engineers working on risk assessment and mitigation of natural disaster intensity and consequences. It will appeal of those working in academic and research environments as well as governmental, professional, national and international organisations.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "El estudio de la vulnerabilidad de los recursos hídricos al cambio climático a nivel nacional ha sido relevante en México, sin embargo derivado del análisis general surge la necesidad de realizar estudios a nivel regional para establecer medidas de adaptación en las zonas más vulnerables. Otro aspecto importante es rescatar los conocimientos tradicionales de las comunidades para ser integrados a los modelos de adaptación. La zona de estudio de la presente investigación, se ubica en el municipio de Galeana, Nuevo León, en donde el abastecimiento de agua es mediante pozos de extracción de agua subterránea y el principal uso es para la agricultura de riego, practicada principalmente por inversionistas privados; el sistema acuífero se encuentra sobreexplotado y la necesidad de recurso prevalece en toda la región. En el presente trabajo se realizó un estudio de campo, aplicando entrevistas a actores clave, con el fin de entender la problemática actual, sus causas y efectos. También se realizó una modelación usando el programa WEAP, para medir el impacto de cambio climático en el balance hídrico, para tal fin se utilizaron los escenarios RCP (Representaive Concentration Pathways) y se crearon también otros escenarios de adaptación basados en las propuestas de los pobladores obtenidas en las entrevistas. Los resultados de la fase de campo fueron representados en un árbol de problemas, para integrar la información de modo coherente e interrelacionar los conceptos. El impacto del cambio climático en el futuro cercano en la recarga del acuífero con respecto al escenario base, resultó del orden de 40% menos recarga para el 2020, pasando del orden de 103 Mm3 (escenario base 1961 a 2010) a 68.62 Mm3 para ese año. Los meses de enero, febrero y marzo son los que muestran menores recargas respecto al escenario base, repercutiendo en mayor medida en actividades de agricultura de temporal, y septiembre el mes que menor impacto tiene (disminuye un 9%)."--Resumen hoja v.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hoy ya se libera una lucha entre la apropiación del agua por parte de las transnacionales, frente a millones de ciudadanos que no tienen acceso al vital líquido. Entablándose así, una lucha entre la codicia del lucro privado y el derecho humano al agua de millones de ciudadanos. Toda vez que, que hay suficiente agua dulce en el planeta, sin embargo, el problema es que su distribución no es la adecuada ni la más justa. En tal sentido, el 70% de todas las aguas extraídas de los ríos, lagos y acuíferos se utilizan para el riego y solo el 10% se destina al abastecimiento de agua potable para la ciudadanía. Y de acuerdo con la ONU, 3 de cada 10 personas en el mundo carecen de acceso a servicios de agua potable seguros y 6 de cada 10 carecen de acceso a instalaciones de saneamiento gestionadas de forma segura. Respecto a América Latina y el Caribe, más de un tercio no tiene acceso al agua "gestionada de forma segura". Siendo que, alrededor del agua se disputan grandes intereses y se generan conflictos como los que viven muchos países como Honduras, Argentina, Brasil, Paraguay y Uruguay, entre otros. Así como, al otro lado del mapa mundial, Palestina, la República Democrática del Congo, son países donde el acceso al agua hace la diferencia entre la vida y la muerte. Y dentro de tal espectro, el presente trabajo le dará al lector en general o especializado, datos importantes respecto a la problemática del agua que hoy padecemos cientos de personas, pero además vinculados con los efectos adversos de cambio climático.

This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Ciudad de México cuenta con uno de los sistemas de aprovechamiento hídrico más complejos y dinámicos en el mudo, cuya insostenibilidad se ha demostrado a partir de la reducción de agua dotada a la población. Este trabajo aborda los efectos de la falta de agua potable en los hogares y cómo se intensifican en delegaciones socialmente vulnerables, tal como sucede en Iztapalapa, cuya población adolece de diversas condiciones socioeconómicas desfavorables debido a que el suministro per cápita no garantiza una dotación mínima necesaria, por la cual los habitantes se ven obligados a comprar el líquido, sacrificando otros rubros básicos del hogar. La agenda pendiente en materia hídrica urge la concurrencia de todos los actores sociales para una acción pública integral, que no sólo busque salvaguardar la salud mediante los sistemas hídricos, sino que también ayude a reducir la vulnerabilidad social de la población y permita hacer frente a la poca disponibilidad de agua en la Ciudad de México.
