Synopsis

Advances in Hydrology: Spatial Intelligence, Climate Change, and Sustainable Water Resource Management is an insightful and comprehensive exploration of the dynamic field of hydrology in the context of pressing environmental challenges. The book offers a multifaceted view on how hydrology, spatial intelligence (including Geographic Information Systems and remote sensing), and climate change intersect to shape the sustainable management of water resources. With a focus on the latest research, methodologies, and practical applications, the book delves into the critical issues of our time.

Sections examine the impact of climate change on hydrological processes, water availability, and quality. Furthermore, it provides valuable insights on how to leverage spatial intelligence and advanced technologies to monitor, model, and manage water resources in an increasingly uncertain and changing climate.
