Examines the environmental element of managing the international water resource of the Nile.
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
The environmental history of the Nile Basin has heightened awareness that the volume of water available is not sufficient to meet modern levels of water demand, quite apart from rapidly growing needs. The environmental element of the complex matter of evaluating and managing the international water resource of the Nile is addressed in this volume. The book deals with the global and regional hydrology, examines the scope and emphasis of water resource planning in the Nile Basin over the past century and identifies future options. The material is intended to be relevant to environmental scientists, government officials and water resource professionals in both national and international agencies, as well as those concerned with the environment and hydraulic engineering in the academic community.
"This volume is particularly relevant to development professionals, particularly those dealing with environmental issues and natural resource management." D. M. Warren, Choice
