This book discusses droughts and water scarcity, which are important issues related to natural phenomena and affected by climate variability and change. It calls for reassessing the prevailing crop structure in Egypt under rain fed irrigation in North Egypt and under surface irrigation in the Nile Delta and Valley. Droughts affect rain fed agriculture, while water scarcity affects irrigated agriculture. The book investigates proposals for improving crop structure in these areas, taking into account the sustainability of water and soil resources. Further, it explores improved management options for crop production in both rain fed and irrigated agriculture. Lastly, it examines suggestions on more rational use of irrigation water in irrigated agriculture to conserve irrigationwater under present climate conditions and to help meet the anticipated demand under climate change conditions. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Environmental Science,$x2191-5555 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aEcology 606 $aClimatology 606 $aWater 606 $aHydrology 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 606 $aClimate Sciences 606 $aWater 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aClimatology. 615 0$aWater. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 615 24$aClimate Sciences. 615 24$aWater. 676 $a628.1 700 $aOuda$b Samiha A.H$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01063872 702 $aZohry$b Abd El-Hafeez$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254119403321 996 $aManagement of Climate Induced Drought and Water Scarcity in Egypt$92535116 997 $aUNINA
