This multidisciplinary monograph provides the first modern integrative summary focused on the most spectacular active tectonic systems in North America. Encompassing seismology, tectonics, geology, and geodesy, it includes papers that summarize the state of knowledge, including background material for those unfamiliar with the region; address global hypotheses using data from Alaska; and test important global hypotheses using data from this region.

Water supplies are allocated and diverted to cover the water needs of a range of agricultural, municipal, industrial, hydro-electrical, and ecological water uses. These water uses are, usually, very competitive, as the available water resources are limited and it is not possible to cover the total water needs in a basin, requiring the setting of water use priorities to best serve societal and ecological needs. To manage the water resources and waterworks may, sometimes, lead to confrontational deliberations and negotiations. As a result, water resource management is one of the world’s greatest challenges due to competition for limited resources, regional disparities in water supply and affluence, mounting global water demand, aquifer depletion, and pollution- and climate-change-induced water stress. Proper policy and governance for sustainable water resource management is essential and require new fresh ideas, innovation, and international cooperation. This book includes seven papers by invited renowned researchers and engineers to cover issues of water resource management, governance, and policy. These issues include the following topics: Integrated water resource management; Water resource systems and water availability; National and international water policy, institutional arrangements, and water law; Water conflict resolution, public participation, and decision making; Water resource management, policy and governance in socially and environmentally sensitive areas and regions.Technology: general issuesbicsscHistory of engineering & technologybicsscwater allocationplanningriver/reservoir systemswater availability modelingglobal changeintegrated assessment modellingsystem dynamics simulationwater resources managementwater supplyclimate changeearth systemfeedbackconflictsenvironmental flowssmall-scale hydropower projectsinstitutional changenestednessgovernance modelegal pluralismmulberry-dyke-fish pond ecosystemspatial evolution analysisremote sensingGuangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Areaprolonged droughtscarcityindicatorstransboundary river basinsIberian Peninsulaclimate crisiswater adaptationGreeceKoronia lakesustainabilityMygdonia BasinTechnology: general issuesHistory of engineering & technologyLoukas Athanasiosedt1328472Garrote LuisedtLoukas AthanasiosothGarrote LuisothBOOK9910595074503321Feature Papers of Water Resources Management, Policy and Governance3038578UNINA
