Headwaters are fragile environments threatened by anthropogenic
actions. The regeneration of headwaters calls for a practical
approach through integrated environmental management. This book
discusses various issues concerning headwater regions of the world
under wide-ranging themes: climate change impacts, vegetal cover,
sub-surface hydrology, catchment and streamflow hydrology,
pollution, water quality and limnology, remote sensing and GIS,
environmental impact assessment and mitigation, socio-economic
impacts, public participation, education and management, and
integrated watershed management.
This book aims to bring about an awareness in sustainable
regeneration of headwater regions and particularly highlighting the
problems of environmental management in highlands and headwaters.
These regions consist of great reserves of natural resources which
need to be exploited and managed sustainably.
