Book excerpt: The global attention in recent years has focused primarily on water quantity and allocation issues. Water quality has received significantly less attention than water quantity. Commendable progress has been made by the developed world to control point sources of pollution, but commensurate progress in reducing non-point sources has not been made. In the third world countries both point and non-point sources of pollution are becoming increasingly a serious concern. Already, nearly all water bodies in such countries near and around urban centres have been severely polluted, with very high health and environmental costs. The book assesses the current status of water quality management in both developed and developing worlds, as well as analysing the effectiveness of economic instruments and legal and institutional frameworks to control water contamination. It outlines the importance of building up social and political awareness to reverse the trend of continuing water quality deterioration, which is likely to be a most challenging task in the coming years. This book was published as a special issue of International Journal of Water Resources Development.

Book Synopsis Coasts and Estuaries by : Eric Wolanski
Download or read book Coasts and Estuaries written by Eric Wolanski and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coasts and Estuaries: The Future provides valuable information on how we can protect and maintain natural ecological structures while also allowing estuaries to deliver services that produce societal goods and benefits. These issues are addressed through chapters detailing case studies from estuaries and coastal waters worldwide, presenting a full range of natural variability and human pressures. Following this, a series of chapters written by scientific leaders worldwide synthesizes the problems and offers solutions for specific issues graded within the framework of the socio-economic-environmental mosaic. These include fisheries, climate change, coastal megacities, evolving human-nature interactions, remediation measures, and integrated coastal management. The problems faced by half of the world living near coasts are truly a worldwide challenge as well as an opportunity for scientists to study commonalities and differences and provide solutions. This book is centered around the proposed DAPSI(W)R(M) framework, where drivers of basic human needs requires activities that each produce pressures. The pressures are mechanisms of state change on the natural system and Impacts on societal welfare (including well-being). These problems then require responses, which are the solutions relating to governance, socio-economic and cultural measures (Scharin et al 2016). Covers estuaries and coastal seas worldwide, integrating their commonality, differences and solutions for sustainability Includes global case studies from leading worldwide contributors, with accompanying boxes highlighting a synopsis about a particular estuary and coastal sea, making all information easy to find Presents full color images to aid the reader in a better understanding of details of each case study Provides a multi-disciplinary approach, linking biology, physics, climate and social sciences

Book Synopsis Management of Diffuse Water Quality Pollution in the Peel-Harvey Coastal Drainage System by : Jesse J. Steele
Download or read book Management of Diffuse Water Quality Pollution in the Peel-Harvey Coastal Drainage System written by Jesse J. Steele and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] The Peel-Harvey Estuarine System is one of the most significant waterbird habitats in Australia. However, despite its ecological significance, a serious decline in the water quality characterises the system, requiring catchment-wide waterway protection and enhancement. Although point sources, such as intensive animal industries and urban development exist in the catchment, the majority of pollution originates from diffuse sources in the wider catchment. This requires that due attention is given to catchment controls and characteristics that define 'diffuse' sources. But targeting all sub-catchment areas equally has been shown to be neither cost-effective, nor likely to significantly reduce pollutant discharge. In this work, the drainage system, a combination of artificial and natural drainage lines, is treated as a stream network and classified into a series of management units, to which water quality threats can be attributed. The establishment of channel characteristics in the Peel- Harvey coastal catchment produced nine channel classes, which highlight how the water quality threat varies at differing catchment scales. The classification process has highlighted the distinct differences between sand-based and clay-based catchments. These differences relate to both the functioning and stability of the channels, but also to the type of pollutants and the way these pollutants are entrained, stored and move through the catchment. In providing the means of overcoming the water quality threats, a range of alternatives methods/guidelines are explored, from which the most effective are selected, guiding the implementation of remediation activities, termed here Best Management Practices (BMPs). The thesis has confirmed that small, first-order streams (source zones) are the most effective locations for managing diffuse pollution. Existing BMPs such as vegetation buffers produce impacts that coincidence with those reported in the literature. Investigation into differences in water quality, between a vegetated (buffer) and unvegetated first-order streams, showed that with the removal of a buffer and stock access; suspended sediment (TSS) increased by 85 percent. But Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P) concentrations and loads were more variable and dominated by specific landholder attitudes and practices. The drainage system demonstrates a surprising capacity to assimilate nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Although the mechanism of how this is achieved, is not totally understood, it appears fine in-channel sediments provide the sink for these pollutants. The store is largest in source zones, where P concentrations are not significantly different to surroundings paddocks or riparian areas. It is noteworthy that in clay catchments paddocks are well coupled with channels. A catalogue of BMPs for management of diffuse water pollution is provided, of which a selection are shown that offer a range of benefits in both reducing TSS, N and P concentrations but also in overcoming other ecological obstacles...

Download or read book Managing Water for Australia written by Karen Hussey and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2007-07-12 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australian water policy and management are undergoing rapid and immense change in response to drought, technological advances, climate change and demographic and economic shifts. The National Water Initiative and the 2007 Australian Government water policy statements propose a fundamental shift in how Australians will use and manage water in the future. The implementation of the national water policy presents many challenges – the creation of water rights and markets, comprehensive water planning, new legislative settings, community participation in water management, linking urban and rural water management, and more. Managing Water for Australia brings together leading social sciences researchers and practitioners to identify the major challenges in achieving sustainable water management, to consolidate current knowledge, and to explore knowledge gaps in and opportunities for furthering water reform.
