Book excerpt: Specifically, this book features detailed information about tomato production, water supply and cork production compiled in three different chapters. Beside these fundamental topics covered in this book, important insights concerning uses of biological processes i.e. bioremediation are also provided. In total, five chapters are grouped into three sections namely: agriculture, water supply and vegetation as it is reflected in the book title. The first chapter provides a comprehensive and accessible overview of the production of one of the most important horticultural crops in the country: tomato. Nowadays and worldwide, there is a trend towards alternative agriculture. To meet the growing demand, many viable options need to be explored, and one of these is the use of seaweed extracts. The second chapter is provided to show the significance of algae-bacterium combination in the restoration of plant growth under heavy metal stress. The last chapter, sealing the first section, focuses exclusively on general knowledge highlighting the significance and potential use in the near future of plant extracts as natural fertilizers and for the control of plant diseases. In the second section, the editors included a unique chapter dealing with water resources to address the lack of comprehensive and unified data. Indeed, this chapter is an ideal resource for study and reference on water input and output issues covering irrigation, groundwater, river basinsThe central message of the last section is quite relevant from an economic and social point of view, especially when the editors consider the contribution of forests and woodlands to national economy through production of cork, though neglected, is quite considerable. Editors collected data on this remarkable tree species taking into account some conservation and economic values to sound the alarm that, in near future, production of cork will not be viable anymore if there is no serious revision of existing policies. The book will be of interest to various audience targets: horticulture students, lecturers and local policymakers as well environmental and agricultural officials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Population growth and rising living standards, on the one hand, and changing climate, on the other hand, have exacerbated water scarcity worldwide. To address this problem, policymakers need to take a wide view of the water economy – a complex structure involving environmental, social, economic, legal, and institutional aspects. A coherent water policy must look at the water economy as a whole and apply a comprehensive approach to policy interventions. Written by two of the world's leading scholars on economics of water, this is the first graduate-level textbook on the topic. The book discusses water resource management within a comprehensive framework that integrates the different, yet highly entwined, elements of a water economy. It follows the steps needed to develop a well-designed set of policies based on detailed analyses of intervention measures, using multi-sectoral and economy-wide examples from a variety of locations and situations around the world.

Book excerpt: The Cultural Dynamics in Water Management from Ancient History to the Present Age focuses on exploring the idea of water culture and how water culture has been generated from water management and social life. It discusses the structure, attribute, type, and the dynamic mechanism of water culture theoretically. It also deals with its diversity and practice in water management with cases from twelve countries, geographically covering most continents of the world. This book is divided into five main sections which include the theoretical discussion of water culture, the historical water culture, the water culture and water management in indigenous societies, the cultural role in local water management, the water cultural practice in the present age using the case of water museum, etc. It is based on a historical and geographical approach to exploring the cultural dynamics in water management. It shows how people abide by their culture to manage water in ancient society and in indigenous, local, social, and urban society. This helps to provide an in-depth understanding of the cultural dynamics in water management to bridge the cultural idea of water management from history to the present and to the future. This book highlights that technical and engineered ways are not enough to solve water problems and achieve water sustainable management if we neglect the cultural dynamic role. Successful water management is always based on the culture from history and this is likely to continue so as to achieve better water management.

Book excerpt: This book comprises the selected papers from the 1st Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-1), Tunisia 2018. The volume is of interest to all researchers and practitioners in the fields of Hydrology, Hydrogeology, Hydrochemistry, Water Resources and Hydrologic Engineering. Water is a dynamic, finite, and vulnerable but resilient natural resource to be protected in an environmentally sustainable manner. Water systems in different frameworks requires a comprehensive understanding of climatology, geology, hydrogeology, hydrochemistry, hydrodynamics, and surface hydrology. In addition, it is highlighted the role of the variability and climate change in water systems. Furthermore, water has a vital significance to the entire socio-economic sector. This volume offers an overview of the state-of-the-art related to water science and technology in model regions in Europe, Africa, Middle East, Asia and America, but mainly focuses on the Mediterranean environment and surrounding regions. It gives new insights on characterisation, evaluation, quality, management, protection, modelling on environmental hydrology, groundwater, hydrochemistry, sustainable water resources studies and hydrologic engineering approaches by international researchers. Main topics include: 1. Hydrology, Climatology and Water-Related Ecosystems 2. Hydrochemistry and Isotopic Hydrology 3. Groundwater Assessment and Management: mapping, exploration, abstraction and modelling 4. Water Resources Sustainability and Climate Change 5. Hydrologic Engineering and Urban Groundwater
