Its varying geography, topography, hydrology, geology and climate are reflected in the diverse characteristics of its water basins. Furthermore, due to its geographical location, Turkey has a significant number of transboundary river basins and has to share its water resources with its neighbors, an issue that can sometimes lead to water conflicts. Turkey is also an interesting example of a developing country that is attempting to adapt to universal water management strategies while at the same time facing legal, institutional, economic and capacity development problems. It has long remained a water-rich country, but the situation is now changing due to the increasing population, inefficient use of resources, and the impacts of climate change and environmental degradation. This book is useful for national and international organizations as well as water resources professionals. It takes on an added significance in the light of climate change in the region, water management problems and transboundary water basins. 410 0$aWorld Water Resources,$x2509-7385 ;$v2 606 $aHydrogeology 606 $aWater quality 606 $aWater pollution 606 $aNatural resources 606 $aHydrogeology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G19005 606 $aWater Quality/Water Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/212000 606 $aNatural Resources$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U39000 606 $aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040 615 0$aHydrogeology. 615 0$aWater quality. 615 0$aWater pollution. 615 0$aNatural resources. 615 14$aHydrogeology. 615 24$aWater Quality/Water Pollution. 615 24$aNatural Resources. 615 24$aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution. 676 $a333.91 676 $a333.9115 702 $aHarmancioglu$b Nilgun B$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAltinbilek$b Dogan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910366649703321 996 $aWater Resources of Turkey$92235935 997 $aUNINA
