Urban Ecology, Water Quality and Climate Change
Urban Ecology, Water Quality and Climate Change[electronic resource] /edited by Arup K. Sarma, Vijay P. Singh, Rajib K. Bhattacharjya, Suresh A. Kartha. - 1st ed. 2018. - XVIII, 440 p. 167 illus., 97 illus. in color.online resource. - Water Science and Technology Library,840921-092X ;. - Water Science and Technology Library,73.

Preface -- I. Urbanization and Ecological Sustainability -- II. Climate Change Issues in the Urban Sector -- III. Water Quality Concerns in the Urban Environment -- IV. Urban Waste: Concerns and Remediation -- V. Ground Water Contamination.

This unique book brings together high-quality research contributions on ecological aspects of urbanization, water quality concerns in an urban environment, and climate change issues with a strong Indian focus under one umbrella. It includes several case studies that discuss urban water management, particularly highlighting the quality aspects. Urbanization is an ecological disturbance that the modern world accepts as essential in the absence of a better alternative that could provide an equal level of comfort. The prohibitive costs of eco-friendly production technologies are forcing the developing world to generate industrial waste that is detrimental to the environment. At the same time, the availability of adequate fresh water is another challenge for our climate-change impacted world. The scientific community is, therefore, searching for ways towards ecologically sustainable urban development. Discussing all these issues, this book offers a useful guide for academicians, researchers, practicing engineers, and managers dealing with diverse water-related problems in urban areas.
