Описание: Looking at the region`s current water crisis from the perspective of its climate history, the author`s ask the central question of what is "normal" climate for the West, and whether the relatively benign climate of the past century will continue into the future.
Описание: Documents the tumultuous climate of the American West over twenty millennia, with tales of past droughts and deluges and predictions about the impacts of future climate change on water resources. This book demonstrates the extended droughts and catastrophic floods that have plagued the West with regularity over the past two millennia.
Описание: Focuses on high-priority topics related to the impact of climate change on water resources in a water scarce region. This work is divided into three main chapters: Climatic changes - sources and effects on the water cycle; Impact of climate change on water resources; and, Water resources and water management.
Описание: In hydrocarbon exploration the application of sequence stratigraphy has ranged from anticipating reservoir- and source-rock distribution to predicting carbonate diagenesis, porosity and permeability.
Описание: The book presents an overview of the impacts of climatic change/fluctuations on a wide variety of water resources sectors including river runoff, water quality, water temperature, water use and demand, reservoir management and water resource planning and management.
Описание: The uncontrolled utilization of natural resources to supply to the water demands of the ever-growing population has brought about worldwide scarcity. Unregulated discharge of waste water into fresh water resources is also polluting the available water resources and making them non-utilizable.
