This volume provides a modern assessment of the state of the
world"s water resources. It collects in one place a huge amount of
data. A uniform methodological approach for each continent is then
built upon to analyse the dynamics of water resources, water use
and water availability for the Earth as a whole, and for all
natural-economic regions and selected countries, as well as river
water inflow to the World Ocean. A dependence of water resources
and water use upon climate factors and socio-economic conditions is
demonstrated. Regions of water stress and deficit are highlighted,
and a great increase of such regions in the future is forecast if
present trends towards water use remain. The effect of
anthropogenic climate change on water resources and water needs is
also considered. This volume will prove to be an invaluable
resource for all researchers and policy-makers involved in water
resource issues.
