Climate Change, Urbanization, and Water Resources: Towards Resilient Urban Water Resource Management

Climate Change, Urbanization, and Water Resources: Towards Resilient Urban Water Resource Management by Heejun Chang , Alexander Reid Ross
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 198 Pages | ISBN : 3031496299 | 31.5 MB

This book discusses resilient urban water resources management in the context of climate change and ongoing urbanization. Twelve cities worldwide representing different climates and growth stages serve as case studies. Using these case cities, this book first identifies the main water issues, including water demand, floods, and droughts, in relation to the historical development of each city, investigates current strategies for dealing with climate-related water hazards, and explores potential adaptive strategies. The authors draw some common lessons by comparing and contrasting these case studies while acknowledging place-based unique adaptation strategies.

Droughts, Floods, and Global Climatic Anomalies in the Indian Ocean World

Droughts, Floods, and Global Climatic Anomalies in the Indian Ocean World by Philip Gooding
English | EPUB | 2022 | 389 Pages | ISBN : 3030981975 | 11 MB

This book explores histories of droughts and floods in the Indian Ocean World, and their connections to broader global climatic anomalies. It deploys an interdisciplinary approach rooted in the emerging field of climate history to investigate the multifaceted effects of global climatic anomalies on regions affected by the Indian Ocean Monsoon System – regularly conceived of as the macro-region’s ‘deep structure.’ Case studies explore how droughts and floods related to anomalous climatic conditions have historically affected states, societies, and ecologies across the Indian Ocean World, including in relation to food security, epidemic diseases, political (in)stability, economic change, infrastructural development, colonialism, capitalism, and scientific knowledge. Tracing longue durée patterns from the twelfth to the early twentieth centuries, this book makes a significant contribution to our understanding of global climatic events and their effects on the Indian Ocean World. It highlights essential historical case studies for contextualizing the potential effects of global warming on the macro-region in the present and future.
