An up-to-date and comprehensive analysis of mountainous region water resource management In Water Resources Management in Mountain Regions, a team of distinguished researchers delivers an up-to-date survey of mountain region hydrology, including the assessment, dynamics, and modeling of glaciers, rivers, and lakes, as well as coverage of the impact of climate change and anthropogenic activities on mountain ecosystems. The authors discuss the challenges posed for those attempting to sustainably manage water resources and explain the impacts of those challenges on water yield, water quality, and the risk of flash flooding. The book includes several case studies from the Himalayan mountain range, which serves as a model region for both medium-high and very high-altitude water resources. It also examines traditional methods of water resource management and conservation and their relevance for 21st century strategies. Readers will also find: * A thorough introduction to the management challenges of water resources in the Sikkim Mountain regions * Comprehensive explorations of the microbial dynamics, ecological resilience, and sustainable management strategies of mountainous water resources * Practical discussions of the application of Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing in Satpuda mountainous terrain * Complete examinations of water resource vulnerability to climate change in the mountain regions of India Perfect for scientists and other professionals working in surface and subsurface hydrology, environmental management, and climate science, Water Resources Management in Mountain Regions will also prove invaluable to professionals working in companies and governmental institutions involved in water resource exploitation and conservation, hydroelectric power generation, and disaster prevention.
