Papers presented at the 11th International Conference on
Sustainable Water Resources Management are included in this volume.
These research works highlight recent technological and scientific
developments associated with the management of surface and
sub-surface water resources and as well as river basin management
methodologies. Water is essential for sustaining life on our planet
and its uneven distribution is a source of permanent conflict. The
growth of human population combined with the irregularity in
precipitation and water availability may restrict even further the
access to water in certain regions of the world. This problem is
made more severe by anthropogenic activities that affect its
quality. River Basin Management includes all aspects of Hydrology,
Ecology, Environmental Management, Flood Plains and Wetlands.
Riverine systems are coming under increasing pressure due to
anthropological and natural causes. Prominent amongst the problems
affecting them is water scarcity and quality, which requires the
development of improved methods for better river management. This
volume features research from professionals involved in sustainable
water resources management and provides an insight into the state
of the art in the current technology, techniques and solutions in
that field as they have been developed and applied in different
countries.
