Water is one of the most critical resources of nature that is necessary for sustaining life for all living things. This volume discusses in detail a selection of geospatial approaches, tools, and techniques for understanding the root causes behind the degradation of our water resources. Satellite remote sensing provides essential data for mapping water resources, hydrology flux measurement, monitoring drought, and flood inundation. With an abundance of informative case studies, this volume discusses the use of the satellite remote sensing and GIS-based systems for managing urban storm water; for flood and soil erosion management; for mapping groundwater zones; for crop production, including measuring soil moisture and aridity; for gauging the impact of climate change; for evaluating glacier change dynamics; for assessing the impact of urban growth on water resources; for measuring the degradation of rivers; and more.

GIS and Geocomputation for Water Resource Science and Engineering not only provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of geographic information systems but also demonstrates how GIS and mathematical models can be integrated to develop spatial decision support systems to support water resources planning, management and engineering. The book uses a hands-on active learning approach to introduce fundamental concepts and numerous case-studies are provided to reinforce learning and demonstrate practical aspects. The benefits and challenges of using GIS in environmental and water resources fields are clearly tackled in this book, demonstrating how these technologies can be used to harness increasingly available digital data to develop spatially-oriented sustainable solutions. In addition to providing a strong grounding on fundamentals, the book also demonstrates how GIS can be combined with traditional physics-based and statistical models as well as information-theoretic tools like neural networks and fuzzy set theory.

Hydrology - Current Research and Future Directions provides a comprehensive review of hydrological research using field investigations and integrated modeling in locations ranging from arid areas to regions with abundant water. Thanks to the contributions of expert researchers hailing from Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, India, and other countries, the complex dynamics of the world's water systems are better understood. The book discusses the pressure of climate change on water ecosystems and complex water management in cities. It provides information that can guide both practitioners and policymakers in the sustainable management of water through integrated water management and advanced treatment technologies. With its multidisciplinary research and approaches, this book opens the door not only to existing hydrology science but also to new partnerships in studies on sustainable water management.
