Water Sustainability and Hydrological Extremes: Quantity, Quality, and Security presents a study for the mitigation of hydrological extremes through case studies. The focus is on the effect of extremes on water quality and the fate of geogenic, microbial, anthropogenic pollutants in the water cycle, and the interaction of water quality and quantity variations. The book integrates rapidly growing diverse topics, such as co-occurrence variation in water quantity and quality, water supply, sanitation, and hygiene. Stakeholders’ participation and raising awareness for sustainable management strategies for hydrological extremes and water management systems is also covered.
This thorough guide serves as a pillar to postgraduate students and researchers as it’s centered on discovering remediation and natural attenuation of hydrological extremes with a special emphasis on present and future challenges.
