Meeting the Challenges: California's Water Future --ACRONYMS AND ABBREVIATIONS --HISTORICAL TIMELINE --AGENCIES AND ORGANIZATIONS --REFERENCES --PHOTO CREDITS --INDEX --AUTHOR BIOGRAPHYThis thoroughly engaging, concise book tells the story of California's most precious resource, tracing the journey of water in the state from the atmosphere to the snowpack to our faucets and foods. Along the way, we learn much about California itself as the book describes its rivers, lakes, wetlands, dams, and aqueducts and discusses the role of water in agriculture, the environment, and politics. Essential reading in a state facing the future with an overextended water supply, this fascinating book shows that, for all Californians, every drop counts. New to this updated edition: * Additional maps, figures, and photos * Expanded coverage of potential impacts to precipitation, snowpack, and water supply from climate change * Updated information about the struggle for water management and potential solutions * New content about sustainable groundwater use and regulation, desalination, water recycling, storm water capture, and current proposals for water storage and diversion *Additional table summarizing water sources for 360 California cities and townsWater-supplyCaliforniaHydrologyCaliforniaWater-supplyCaliforniaManagementagriculture.aqueducts.climate change.conservation.dams.desalination.drought.ecology.environment.environmental science.environmentalism.faucets.flood.global warming.groundwater.hydrologic region.irrigation.lakes.natural watersheds.nature.nonfiction.politics.precipitation.rivers.science.snowpack.stormwater.sustainability.water capture.water division.water management.water recycling.water resources.water science.water storage.water supply.water.wetlands.Water-supplyHydrologyWater-supplyManagement.363.6/109794Carle David1950-1658166MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807343303321Introduction to water in California4043410UNINA03184nam 22006255 450 991033765910332120251116203800.03-319-95037-110.1007/978-3-319-95037-2(CKB)4100000007003183(MiAaPQ)EBC5553477(DE-He213)978-3-319-95037-2(PPN)231462433(EXLCZ)99410000000700318320181012d2019 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierInternet of Things for Smart Cities Technologies, Big Data and Security /by Waleed Ejaz, Alagan Anpalagan1st ed. 2019.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2019.1 online resource (xvi, 76 pages)SpringerBriefs in Electrical and Computer Engineering,2191-81123-319-95036-3 Includes bibliographical references (p. 57-61) and indexChapter 1.Internet of Things for Smart Cities: Overview and Key Challenges -- Chapter 2.Communication Technologies and Protocols for Internet of Things -- Chapter 3.Big Data in IoT: Processing, Storage, and Analytics -- Chapter 4.Internet of Things enabled Electric Vehicles in Smart Cities -- Chapter 5.Blockchain Technology for Security and Privacy in Internet of Things.This book introduces the concept of smart city as the potential solution to the challenges created by urbanization.
