Includes index.3-030-60550-7 Part 1: Global and Lake Victoria’s Water Resources -- Chapter 1. Global Freshwater Resources -- Chapter 2. Lake Victoria’s Water Resources -- Chapter 3.

GNSS Reflectometry and Applications.This book employs a suite of remotely sensed products and advanced technologies to provide the first comprehensive space-based sensing of Lake Victoria, the world’s second largest freshwater lake that supports a livelihood of more than 42 million people, modulates regional climate, but faces myriads of challenges. Proper understanding of the lake and changes in its physical dynamics (e.g., water level, shorelines and areal dynamics) resulting from the impacts of climate variation and climate change as well as anthropogenic (e.g., hydropower and irrigation) is important for its management as well as for strategic development before, during and after climate extremes (e.g., floods and droughts) in order to inform policy formulations, planning and mitigation measures. Owing to its sheer size, and lack of research resources commitment by regional governments that hamper its observations, however, it is a daunting task to undertake studies on Lake Victoria relying solely on in-situ “boots on the ground” measurements, which are sparse, missing in most cases, inconsistent or restricted by governmental red tapes. The book is useful to those in water resources management and policy formulations, hydrologists, environmentalists, engineers and researchers.HydrogeologyEnvironmental managementEnvironmental monitoringHydrogeology.Environmental management.Environmental monitoring.551.4820971128Awange Joseph L.1969-1229364MiAaPQMiAaPQUtOrBLWBOOK9910484833903321Lake Victoria monitored from space2853546UNINA02617oam 2200541M 450 991071630210332120200213070901.7(CKB)5470000002521119(OCoLC)1065591731(OCoLC)995470000002521119(EXLCZ)99547000000252111920071213d1926 ua 0engurcn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAnnual report of the Clerk of the House of Representatives Wm.
