This book chiefly focuses on environmental flow, water pollution
and water quality. Several chapters also cover water treatment
technologies and management. In today's context, climate change and
climate variability are important issues in the water sector, which
is called upon to develop adaptation strategies to cope with their
negative impacts. Human health depends upon the quality of water
used for drinking and irrigation purposes. These core issues are
discussed and addressed in several chapters. The book explores the
impact of climate change on water resources and considers various
climatological scenarios. In this regard, it carries out a trend
analysis and compares the performance of various Global Climate
Models (GCMs). Further, it conducts a water quality analysis and
water quality mapping so as to provide information on the most
vulnerable areas in the context of water quality. Emerging
pollutants, generated from paper mills, are identified in order to
choose an appropriate treatment technology. Bioremediation
techniques are included for the characterization of improved water
quality parameters. The book also presents a low-cost treatment
technology for fluoride removal, which can help water managers
ensure potable water to stakeholders. In terms of maintaining river
ecology in the downstream areas of water resources project sites,
the book provides a number of case studies on assessment of
environmental flows. Advanced treatment technologies that can be
highly advantageous for removing water pollutants are presented.
Given its scope, the book offers a valuable resource for academics,
water resources practitioners, scientists, water managers,
environmentalists, administrators, NGOs, researchers and students
who are involved in water management with a main focus on water
pollution, the environment, climate change and health.
