With Africa's water resources constantly threatened by an
increasing population and the resultant rise in water demand,
together with the stresses of water use for various activities,
desertification, climate change, and other interventions in the
water cycle by man, it is vital that the water resources in arid
and semi-arid regions are developed and managed in a sustainable
and integrated manner. In Water Resources of Arid Areas, these key
factors are explored and examined by leading experts, concentrating
in particular upon the question of groundwater recharge and
dividing discussion into the following sections: natural and
artificial groundwater recharge; socio-economic aspects of water
demand management; geophysical, GIS and remote sensing techniques
for groundwater exploration; climate change and its impact on water
resources; vulnerability and risk assessment; and water management.
Comprising the Proceedings of the International Conference on Water
Resources of Arid and Semi-Arid Regions of Africa held in Gaborone,
Botswana, August 3-6, 2004, this is a vital text for researchers
and practitioners in the fields of surface water hydrology,
groundwater hydrology, environmental engineering, agricultural
engineering and earth sciences, as well as for those involved in
water resources planning, development and management in arid and
semi-arid areas.
