This book addresses the fundamental requirement for an
interdisciplinary catchment based approach to managing and
protecting water resources that crucially includes an
understanding of land use and its management. In this
approach the hydrological cycle links mountains to the sea, and
ecosystems in rivers, groundwaters, lakes, wetlands, estuaries and
coasts forming an essential continuum directly influenced by human
activity.
The book provides a synthesis of current and future thinking in
catchment management, and shows how the specific problems that
arise in water use policy can be addressed within the context of an
integrated approach to management. The book is written for advanced
students, researchers, fellow academics and water sector
professionals such as planners and regulators. The intention is to
highlight examples and case studies that have resonance not only
within natural sciences and engineering but with academics
in other fields such as socio-economics, law and policy.
