It provides valuable insights into water technologies and management with respect to durability, adaptability to the environment, and sustainability. Comparisons of the technological underground aqueduct developments from several regions are made. These technologies are the underpinning of modern achievements in water supply engineering and water management practices, and current issues of sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and decentralization have led engineers to consider combining older proven technologies with modern infrastructure advancements. 606 $aAqueducts 606 $aHydraulic structures 606 $aWater-supply engineering 606 $aIrrigation canals and flumes 606 $aGroundwater 615 0$aAqueducts. 615 0$aHydraulic structures. 615 0$aWater-supply engineering. 615 0$aIrrigation canals and flumes. 615 0$aGroundwater. 676 $a628.1/5 702 $aAngelakis$b Andreas N. 702 $aChiotis$b Eustathios 702 $aEslamian$b Saeid 702 $aWeingartner$b Herbert 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910153183403321 996 $aUnderground Aqueducts Handbook$92801011 997 $aUNINA
