This comprehensive volume describes how ecosystem services-based
approaches can assist in addressing major global and regional water
challenges, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and water
security in the developing world, by integrating scientific
knowledge from different disciplines, such as hydrological
modelling, environmental economics, psychology and international
law. Empirical assessments at the national, catchment and regional
levels are used to critically appraise this systemic approach, and
the merits and potential limitations are presented. The
practicalities of this approach with regard to water resources
management, nature conservation, and sustainable business practices
are discussed, and the role of society in underpinning the concept
of ecosystem services is explored. Presenting new insights and
perspectives on how to shape future strategies, this contributory
volume is a valuable reference for researchers, academics, students
and policy makers, in environmental studies, hydrology, water
resource management, ecology, environmental law, policy and
economics, and conservation biology.
